About this trial

The purpose of this observational, data collection, research is to evaluate if ziconotide, a commercially approved medication given by a FDA cleared intrathecal pump, for chronic pain is effective in the treatment of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) a common and often long-lasting side effect of cancer treatment.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adult patients, ages 18-100, with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy as a primary source of pain

The patient is already scheduled to be treated with TDD using ziconotide (no reported allergies to ziconotide or drug-drug interactions expected)

Patient will have, or is scheduled to have, Medtronic Synchromed Intrathecal Pump implanted by Dr. Beuer (outside of the research)

Patients already taking nonopioid analgesics will be allowed to continue their prescribed medication regimen.

Disqualifiers

Patients with other forms of neuropathy (diabetic, idiopathic) will be excluded

Patients with a spinal cord stimulator will be excluded

Patients with contraindications to intrathecal ziconotide will be excluded

Patients who cannot sign the consent, participate in research activities, or those who require a legally authorized representative (LAR) will be excluded

Trial population

Adult patient, ages 18-100, with chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy that have not responded well to conservative measures

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Assess whether or not patients' pain score from VAS changes when receiving intrathecal ziconotide

One primary objective of this observational study is to obtain data to assess the information collected from the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) in patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy after treatment with intrathecal ziconotide, over a 24-month period.

Time frame
From enrollment to the end of treatment at 24 months
2

Assess whether or not patients' answers to ODI change when receiving intrathecal ziconotide

One primary objective of this observational study is to obtain data to assess the information collected from the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) in patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy after treatment with intrathecal ziconotide, over a 24-month period.

Time frame
From enrollment to the end of treatment at 24 months
3

Assess whether or not patients' answers to PROMIS change when receiving intrathecal ziconotide

One primary objective of this observational study is to obtain data to assess the information collected from the Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) in patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy after treatment with intrathecal ziconotide, over a 24-month period.

Time frame
From enrollment to the end of treatment at 24 months
