About this trial

This study recommends the use of OnLife dietary supplement, which will be followed by a few day before the initiation of PACLITAXEL, for the prevention of PACLITAXEL induced neuropathy. OnLife will be continued one month after stopping chemotherapy.

This would limit the number of PACLITAXEL dose reductions and premature interruptions of this chemotherapy, thus potentially improving the results in terms of antitumor efficacy, while improving the quality of life of patients treated with weekly PACLITAXEL.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Neuropathies will be graded by the oncologist using the NCI-CTCAE version 5.0.

Neuropathies will be graded by the oncologist using the NCI-CTCAE version 5.0. during the consultation with the oncologist at 3 months. The AE graded from 1 to 5. Grade 1 is a better and grade 5 is a worst outcome.

Time frame
At 3 months

Secondary outcomes

1

Evaluation of Neuropathic pain symptom inventory (NPSI) scores

Evaluation of Neuropathic pain symptom inventory scores by the questionnaire. The minimum value is 0 (no pain) and the maximum value is 10 (maximum pain)

Time frame
At 12 weeks, 16 weeks, 6 months and 12 months
2

All peripheral neuropathies graded by the oncologist according to CTCAE V5.0

Assess the rate of grade ≥ 2 peripheral neuropathy by NCI-CTCAE V5.0 The AE graded from 2 to 5. Grade 2 is a better and grade 5 is a worst outcome.

Time frame
Every 4 weeks for one year
3

Time to onset of grade ≥ 2 neuropathy.

Assess time to onset of grade ≥ 2 neuropathy by Kaplan-Meyer method The AE graded from 2 to 5. Grade 2 is a better and grade 5 is a worst outcome.

Time frame
During 1 year
4

Number of toxicities attributable to OnLife® dietary supplement
