Tracjectories and Predictors of Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Tracjectories and Predictors of Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Perspective Longitudinal Study


Sponsor

The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

Enrollment

173 participants

Start Date

Jun 2, 2025

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The goal of this study is to explore the trajectory patterns of chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy over the course of chemotherapy and identify predictors of distinct trajectories in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. A perspective longitudinal study design is utilized. Chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy was assessed at one week after the first use of Vincristine (VCR) (T1), one week after the second use of VCR (T2), one week after the third use of VCR (T3), one week after the fourth use of VCR (T4), two weeks after T4 (T5), two weeks after T5 (T6), two weeks after T5 (T7). Patients' demographic and clinical characteristics, physical symptoms, nutrition status, psychological distress, sleep quality, physical activity, perceived social support and coping strategy are obtained at baseline.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is tracking nerve damage (peripheral neuropathy) in children with leukemia who are receiving a chemotherapy drug called vincristine. Researchers want to understand when it starts, how bad it gets, and what factors predict which children will be most affected — so that future care can be better tailored. **You may be eligible if...** - Your child has been diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) - Your child is between 8 and 17 years old - Your child will receive vincristine as part of the CCCG-ALL-2020 treatment protocol - Your child is alert and able to communicate their physical and emotional state - Both the child and parent have provided written consent to participate **You may NOT be eligible if...** - Your child is enrolled in another trial that uses electrical stimulation or exercise therapy for nerve-related symptoms - Your child has severe complications involving the heart, brain, or lungs - Your child had nerve problems from another condition before starting treatment (e.g., spinal cord injury, genetic disease) - Your child has a neuromuscular condition like cerebral palsy or traumatic brain injury - Your child has brain or spinal cancer, or needs multiple treatments including radiation Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
