About this trial
This is a prospective clinical study enrolling eligible subjects scheduled to receive oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy after signing informed consent forms.
Subjects are randomly assigned to two groups. Group 1 (skin test group) receives an intradermal injection of 0.02 mL oxaliplatin solution (0.01-5.00 mg/mL) before cycles 6-10 (oxaliplatin-naive patients) or cycles 2-6 (patients with recurrence after adjuvant oxaliplatin chemotherapy), with a simultaneous self-negative control (0.02 mL 0.9% normal saline). A total of 1650 person-times will be included. Group 2 (negative control group) includes 50 subjects who receive 0.02 mL 0.9% normal saline intradermally before cycle 6 or 2.
Assessments include:
1. Skin test results evaluated 15-30 minutes post-injection; a positive result is defined as a wheal ≥5 mm with surrounding erythema 2. Maximum diameter of skin test rash measured 15-30 minutes post-injection 3. Biomarker detection at three time points: pre-initial skin test, 1 hour post-skin test, and 1 hour post-first medication (carboxypeptidase A3, 9α,11β-PGF2, cysteinyl leukotrienes LTC4/LTD4/LTE4, IL-4/5/1β/6/8, TNF-α, MCP-1, mast cell chymase, total tryptase, ΔTryptase, ΔIL-6 peak); pre-skin test assessments include basophil activation rate, total IgE, LDH, lymphocytes, monocytes, and eosinophils 4. Occurrence, onset time, severity (graded per NCI-CTCAE Version 5.0), and classification of oxaliplatin infusion-related hypersensitivity reactions Follow-up continues until cycle 10 (cycle 6 for oxaliplatin re-exposed patients) or the first occurrence of: hypersensitivity reaction, disease progression requiring new anti-tumor therapy, intolerable toxicity, consent withdrawal, loss to follow-up, death, or other protocol-specified termination conditions.
The negative control group is exclusively used for exploratory biomarker correlation analysis to assess the impact of skin test procedures, and is excluded from primary (sensitivity, specificity) and secondary (predictive values, likelihood ratios, Kappa coefficient) endpoint analyses. Limitations of this exploratory analysis are explicitly stated.
Biomarker correlation analysis uses first skin test baseline data from 50 subjects per group (total 100 randomized cases). Variable block stratified randomization is performed, stratified by oxaliplatin-naive status and presence of comorbidities (diabetes, hypertension, renal insufficiency).
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Aged 18 years or older.

Treatment-naive patients to oxaliplatin are eligible. Patients who may resume oxaliplatin treatment after prior adjuvant oxaliplatin chemotherapy can be enrolled as assessed by investigators.
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance score of 0 to 2. Estimated survival time of no less than 3 months.
Disqualifiers
Received systemic steroid therapy exceeding 10 mg prednisone equivalent daily or other immunosuppressants within 21 days prior to enrollment; topical steroids applied to skin test area within 7 days before enrollment; anti-IL-6 monoclonal antibodies such as tocilizumab within 3 months prior to enrollment; anti-IgE monoclonal antibodies such as omalizumab within 6 months prior to enrollment.
Any unresolved toxicity from previous treatment not recovered to Grade 0 or 1 per NCI CTCAE Version 6.0 before enrollment, excluding alopecia and clinically insignificant asymptomatic laboratory abnormalities.
Known hypersensitivity to oxaliplatin or other platinum agents, ingredients and excipients of combined chemotherapeutic drugs.
Grade 2 or higher peripheral neuropathy prior to initial medication.

Treatments tested in this trial
Oxaliplatin
DrugAdminister 0.02 mL of oxaliplatin solution at 0.01-5.00 mg/mL intradermally before cycles 6 to 10 for oxaliplatin-naive patients, or before cycles 2 to 6 for patients with recurrent disease after adjuvant oxaliplatin chemotherapy. Meanwhile, conduct self-negative control via intradermal injection of 0.02 mL 0.9% normal saline.
Saline (0.9% NaCl)
DrugInject 0.02 mL of 0.9% normal saline intradermally prior to administration of Cycle 6 or Cycle 2
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
sensitivity and specificity
The proportion of patients with positive pre-medication skin test results among all patients who developed defined hypersensitivity reactions during the study The proportion of patients with negative pre-medication skin test results among all participants without hypersensitivity reactions during the study
Secondary outcomes
Additional Diagnostic Performance Indices of Oxaliplatin Skin Test
Calculate the following diagnostic indices of the oxaliplatin skin test: positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), positive likelihood ratio (LR+), negative likelihood ratio (LR-), and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR).
Kappa Coefficient of Agreement
Evaluate the level of agreement between the oxaliplatin skin test results (positive/negative) and the clinical diagnosis of oxaliplatin-induced hypersensitivity reactions using the Cohen's Kappa coefficient.
Incidence and Severity of Skin Test-Related Adverse Events
Record and grade all adverse events occurring within 72 hours after skin test administration according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) version 6.0.
Correlation Between Serum Biomarkers and Skin Test Parameters
Analyze the correlation between serum biomarker levels and the following skin test parameters: Performance of the skin test procedure itself Skin test results (positive vs. negative) Diameter of the wheal induced by the skin test
