Establishing of Neuronal-like Cells From Patients With Cisplatin-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy

Withdrawn before enrolling

Conditions studied: Peripheral Nervous System Diseases, Testicular Neoplasms

In brief

This study targets patients with cisplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy and will allow us to: a) study peripheral neuropathy in diverse human sensory neurons in ways that were not possible previously; b) gain insight on druggable targets to treat or prevent this devastating side effect of chemotherapy; c) provide a human cellular model that can be used for screening of drugs to determine if they are neurotoxic. The combination of patient information and in vitro measurements provides a highly relevant and clinically useful model for studies aimed to impact treatment selection for the individual cancer patient.
