Remote Monitoring and Management of Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy

Trial Status: active

This is a prospective randomized trial designed to investigate a new care model for patients who suffer from nerve damage from chemotherapy called chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). All participants in the study will report their CIPN symptoms daily using a website, app or phone for 12 weeks. In one group the data will be collected and participants will be encouraged to reach out to their treating doctors for uncontrolled symptoms. These participants' doctors can prescribe any treatment they feel is appropriate. In the second group, if the symptoms meet the criteria for eligibility they will receive a phone call from a nurse practitioner either the same day or next day, depending on the time symptoms were logged. That nurse practitioner will determine the correct CIPN treatment using an algorithm and prescribe it. The study will track the severity of symptoms over time as well as looking at the impact on treatments for CIPN (medications and referrals).
