Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Assessment with respect to duloxetine of the effect of lorcaserin on the Pain Numerical Rating Scale.

    Duloxetine efficacy as Measured by Pain Score 0-10 Numerical Rating Scale. Subject will rate level of pain experienced from 0 (No Pain) to 10 (Worst Possible Pain) for each question on the Brief Pain Inventory Short Form. A rating of 5 would be Moderate Pain.

    180 days

  • Assessment with respect to duloxetine of the effect of lorcaserin on the patient-reported quality of life.

    Subject quality of life will be measured using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/ Gynecologic Oncology Group-Neurotoxocity (FACT/GOG-NTX) Questionnaire. For each statement, the subject will answer 0-5 with 0 being "Not at All" and 5 being "Very Much"

    180 days

  • Assessment with respect to duloxetine of the effect of lorcaserin on the patient-reported quality of life.

    Subject quality of life will also be measured using the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI) Questionnaire, with CTCA addendum. For each statement, the subject will answer from 0-10, with 0 being "Not Present" and 10 being "As Bad as You Can Imagine)

  • Subject is a patient who reports neurotoxicity symptom grade 2 or more according CTCAE criteria to his or her medical oncologist following one or more cycles of oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy treatment.
  • Subject is a patient who is capable and accepting of completing study questionnaires at each data collection point.
  • Subject has adequate English fluency for completion of data collection. The surveys were designed and validated in English and are not currently available in other languages.
