Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation in Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in Patients With Stage I-III Early Stage Breast Cancer
Single-Institution Trial Investigating the Effectiveness of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) in Taxane Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN) in Patients With Early Stage Breast Cancer

INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
This phase II trial examines transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) in patients with stage I-III breast cancer with chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy. TENS is a procedure in which mild electric currents are applied to some areas of the skin to potentially improve neuropathy. This trial may help determine if TENS is feasible and effective for the treatment of peripheral neuropathy symptoms while on chemotherapy.
