Brief Summary

Taxane neuropathy is a common and long-term side effect of long-term morbidity in patients surviving cancer. No preventive or symptomatic treatment has been shown to be effective. Its pathophysiology is poorly known and probably multifactorial. A possible mechanism would be mediated by the activation of the SK3 calcium channel: a retrospective study carried out at the University Hospital of Tours (Carina RUA) found a significant association between the number of CAG triplets in the KCNN3 gene coding for the SK3 channel and the appearance of a taxane neuropathy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Appearance of a neuropathy secondary to taxanes using Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE)

    Evaluation of neuropathy will be performed using non-invasive test, gold standard, Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Grading (from best to worst) : 0 = normal 1. = slight paresthesia, mild weakness (subjective) 2. = moderate paresthesia, moderate weakness (objective) 3. = severe paresthesia with functional disability, severe weakness 4. = paralysis

    From baseline and up to 4 months of follow-up

  • Appearance of a neuropathy secondary to taxanes using Total neuropathy score clinical (TNSc)

    Evaluation of neuropathy will be performed using non-invasive test, Total neuropathy score clinical Grading (from best to worst) : Sensory symptoms : 0 = none (N), 1 = symptoms limited finger or toes, 2 = Symptoms extend to ankle or wrist, 3 = Symptoms extend to knee or elbow, 4 = Symptoms above knees or elbow or functionally disabling Motor symptoms : 0 = N, 1 = slight difficulty, 2 = moderate difficulty, 3 = require help/assistance, 4 = paralysis Autonomic symptoms : 0 = N, 1 , 2, 3, 4 (number of symptoms) Pin sensibility and vibration sensibility : 0 = normal (n), 1 = reduced in fingers/toes, 2 = reduced to wrist/ankle, 3 = reduced to elbow/knee, 4 = reduced to above elbow/knee Strength : 0 = n, 1 = mild weakness, 2 = moderate weakness, 3 = severe weakness, 4 = paralysis Deep tendon reflexe : 0 = n, 1 = ankle reflex reduced, 2 = ankle reflex absent, 3 = ankle reflex absent, other reduced, 4 = all reflexes absent

    From baseline and up to 4 months of follow-up

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Occurence of adverses events to taxanes (dysgeusia, myalgia, digestive toxicity tearing, onycholysis.)

    From baseline and up to 4 months of follow-up

Study Arms (1)

Patients hospitalized in oncology day hospital for their chemotherapy with taxanes (paclitaxel or docetaxel) for breast or prostate cancer, will be offered the study.

You may qualify if:

  • Breast Group
  • Age ≥ 18 years
  • Breast cancer
  • Chemotherapy with paclitaxel or docetaxel
  • Adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy in localized cancer or first-line treatment in metastatic cancer
  • Signed informed consent

  • Metastatic prostate cancer
  • Chemotherapy with docetaxel in 1st line
  • Signed informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Anteriority or concomitance of another chemotherapy provider of neuropathy (platinum salts)
  • Another possible cause of neuropathy: diabetes, alcoholism, vitamin B9 / B12 deficiency, neurodegenerative disease, Raynaud's syndrome
