Auricular Point Acupressuur om door chemotherapie geïnduceerde neuropathie te beheersen
9 juli 2026 bijgewerkt door: Jennifer Kawi, The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston
De voorgestelde gerandomiseerde controlestudie zal auriculaire puntacupressuur (APA) evalueren op chemotherapie-geïnduceerde neuropathie (CIN), waarbij puntspecificiteit en placebo-effecten nauwgezet worden overwogen door zelfrapportagemetingen, psychofysische maatregelen (QST), endogene biomarkers (cytokines) en neurologische metingen te integreren. -beeldvorming om de werkzaamheid van APA en de onderliggende mechanismen te onderzoeken.
De onderzoekers zullen gebruik maken van een gerandomiseerde controleproef met drie groepen: (1) APA-groep, (2) Sham APA-controle en (3) Gebruikelijke zorgcontrole. Een smartphone-applicatie voor ecologische momentane beoordeling (EMA) zal worden gebruikt om de naleving van de APA te monitoren en de momentane CIN-ernst en analgetisch gebruik vast te leggen.

Gedetailleerde beschrijving
Chemotherapie-geïnduceerde neuropathie (CIN) - pijn, gevoelloosheid of tintelingen verdeeld over de handen en voeten - veroorzaakt aanhoudende symptomen die het gevoel en het evenwicht beïnvloeden bij overlevenden van kanker. Tot 50% van de overlevenden van kanker lijdt 6 jaar na de behandeling nog steeds aan CIN. Duloxetine, het enige aanbevolen geneesmiddel door de American Society of Clinical Oncology, bleek superieur te zijn aan placebo, maar verbeterde de CIN met slechts 0,73 punten (0-10 schaal). Er is geen effectieve behandeling voor CIN vastgesteld behalve lichaamsbeweging, met een effectgrootte van <0,508. Opioïden verlichten CIN-pijn, maar langdurig gebruik wordt sterk afgeraden vanwege overmatig gebruik van opioïden.
De onderzoekers stellen voor om auriculaire puntacupressuur (APA) te testen, een innovatieve en schaalbare oplossing die is ontwikkeld op basis van auriculaire acupunctuur. APA is een niet-invasieve (naaldloze) en actieve behandeling voor patiënten met pijn, terwijl acupunctuur een invasieve (met behulp van naalden) en passieve behandeling is (toegediend door een gediplomeerde arts). Bij APA worden door een bekwame zorgverlener kleine zaadjes op specifieke oorpunten geplakt en patiënten drukken drie keer per dag op de zaadjes om oorpunten te stimuleren, drie minuten per keer, in totaal negen minuten per dag. APA zorgt voor pijnverlichting binnen 1-2 minuten na oorstimulatie en houdt pijnverlichting aan gedurende een maand na een APA-interventie van 4 weken. APA is populair in Taiwan, China en Europa. Hoewel het gebruik ervan in de VS schaars is, hebben een beperkt aantal klinische onderzoeken APA bij pijnbestrijding ondersteund.

Experimental Pain Sensitivity as Assessed by a Multimodal Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) Battery - Pressure Pain Threshold (PPT)-Trapezius
Tijdsspanne: Baseline, 1 month after Baseline
|
In order to measure experimental pain sensitivity, a multimodal Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) battery will be completed: pressure pain threshold (PPT), Mechanical Temporal Summation (MTS), and Conditioned Pain Modulation (CPM).
To assess PPT, a handheld digital pressure algometer (Wagner, Greenwich, CT) was applied at a constant rate of 2.9 Newton per centimeter squared (N/cm^2) per second to the participant's trapezius and thumbs.
Participants were asked to notify the experimenter when the pressure sensation ''first becomes painful."
The pressure at which participants indicated that the pressure sensation ''first becomes painful" is reported.

Experimental Pain Sensitivity as Assessed by a Multimodal Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) Battery - Mechanical Temporal Summation (MTS)
Tijdsspanne: Baseline, 1 month after Baseline
|
In order to measure experimental pain sensitivity, a multimodal Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) battery will be completed: pressure pain threshold (PPT), Mechanical Temporal Summation (MTS), and Conditioned Pain Modulation (CPM).
To assess MTS, a single pinprick stimulus (e.g., via a weighted pinprick stimulator or Neuropen) is applied, followed by a series of 10 rapid, identical stimuli at the same location, usually at a rate of 1/second, to measure the change in pain sensation.
Participants rate their pain after the stimuli using a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 = no pain and 10 = worst pain imaginable.
A higher score means greater pain sensitivity and increased temporal summation.
MTS is calculated as the increase in pain intensity rating (Δ change score) between the first stimulus and the end of the series.
