Study Summary

This phase II trial studies how well giving oxaliplatin over 6 hours works in treating nerve damage in patients with gastrointestinal cancers. Oxaliplatin can cause side effects such as nerve damage that may delay or reduce the dose of oxaliplatin. Giving oxaliplatin over a longer period of time (6 hours) may prevent or delay the development of nerve damage, which may keep patients on standard doses of chemotherapy longer, without having to delay treatment.

Primary Outcome

The EORTC-CIPN-20 sub-scales will be computed according to the standard scoring algorithm and then transformed to a 0 to 100 scale, where high scores mean less symptom burden. The primary outcome measure of difference in sensory scores of the two groups between baseline and the initiation of cycle 4 will be the driver of the analysis.
