Acupressão de ponto auricular para tratar neuropatia induzida por quimioterapia

9 de julho de 2026 atualizado por: Jennifer Kawi, The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston

O estudo de controle randomizado proposto avaliará a acupressão de ponto auricular (APA) na neuropatia induzida por quimioterapia (CIN), considerando rigorosamente a especificidade do ponto e os efeitos placebo, integrando medidas de autorrelato, medidas psicofísicas (QST), biomarcadores endógenos (citocinas) e -imagem para investigar a eficácia do APA e o(s) mecanismo(s) subjacente(s).

Os investigadores usarão um estudo de controle randomizado, design de três grupos: (1) Grupo APA, (2) Controle APA Simulado e (3) Controle de Cuidados Usuais. Um aplicativo de smartphone para avaliação ecológica momentânea (EMA) será usado para monitorar a adesão à APA e capturar a gravidade momentânea da NIC e o uso de analgésicos.

Visão geral do estudo

Descrição detalhada

A neuropatia induzida por quimioterapia (CIN) - dor, dormência ou formigamento distribuído nas mãos e nos pés - produz sintomas persistentes que afetam a sensação e o equilíbrio em sobreviventes de câncer. Até 50% dos sobreviventes de câncer ainda sofrem de NIC 6 anos após o tratamento. A duloxetina, o único medicamento recomendado pela Sociedade Americana de Oncologia Clínica, mostrou-se superior ao placebo, mas melhorou a NIC em apenas 0,73 pontos (escala de 0 a 10). Nenhum tratamento eficaz para NIC foi estabelecido, exceto o exercício, com tamanho de efeito <0,508. Os opioides aliviam a dor da NIC, mas o uso prolongado é fortemente desencorajado devido ao uso excessivo de opioides.

Os investigadores propõem testar a acupressão de ponto auricular (APA), uma solução inovadora e escalável desenvolvida a partir da acupuntura auricular. APA é um tratamento não invasivo (sem agulha) e ativo para pacientes com dor, enquanto a acupuntura é um tratamento invasivo (usando agulhas) e passivo (administrado por um profissional licenciado). Na APA, pequenas sementes são colocadas em pontos específicos da orelha por um profissional qualificado e os pacientes pressionam as sementes para estimular os pontos da orelha três vezes ao dia, três minutos por vez, totalizando nove minutos por dia. APA fornece alívio da dor dentro de 1-2 minutos após a estimulação do ouvido e mantém o alívio da dor por um mês após uma intervenção de APA de 4 semanas. APA é popular em Taiwan, China e Europa. Embora seu uso seja escasso nos EUA, um número limitado de ensaios clínicos apoiou a APA no tratamento da dor.

Experimental Pain Sensitivity as Assessed by a Multimodal Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) Battery - Pressure Pain Threshold (PPT)-Trapezius
Prazo: 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)
Prazo: 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.

Prazo: 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.

Serum concentrations of cytokines and chemokines (including IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12 (p40 and p70), IL-13, IL-17, IFN-γ, TNF-α, TGF-β) were quantified using a multiplex bead-based immunoassay. Biomarker concentrations were analyzed as indicators of inflammatory response at baseline and 1 month after baseline.

Prazo: Baseline
Blood samples were collected to measure cytokines and inflammatory biomarkers. Serum concentrations of cytokines and chemokines (including IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12 (p40 and p70), IL-13, IL-17, IFN-γ, TNF-α, TGF-β) were quantified using a multiplex bead-based immunoassay. Biomarker concentrations were analyzed as indicators of inflammatory response at baseline and 1 month after baseline.
