About this study

Official title: Effect of the Oral Route of Magnesium on Pre and Post-mastectomy on the Post-surgery Pain

In breast cancer patients undergoing a mastectomy, the aim of this study is to evaluate if the magnesium administered for 6 weeks starting two weeks before the surgery induces a decrease of pain intensity one month post-mastectomy compared to the placebo group.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled double-blind clinical trial conducted in the Oncology Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand, France, in 100 patients suffering from breast cancer and undergoing a total mastectomy.

This clinical trial compares magnesium and placebo for the prevention of neuropathic pain induced by mastectomy assessed with a (0-10) numerical pain rating scale. Cognition, anxiety, depression, sleep and quality of life are also assessed.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Measure of average pain intensity by a numerical rating scale

    Measure of average pain intensity by a numerical rating scale assessed 5 days before the visit at 1 month post-mastectomy in magnesium and placebo groups.

    Measured: 5 days before the visit at 1 month post-mastectomy

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Pain assessment by the Neuropathic pain questionnaire

    Measured: at month 1 and Month 3

  2. Evaluation of analgesic consumption

    Measured: at 3 month

  3. Cognitive assessment by Trail Making Test A and B

    Measured: at month 1 and month 3

  4. Quality of life assessment by EORTC QLQ-C30

    Measured: at month 1 and month 3

  5. Quality of life assessment by Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)

    Measured: at month 1 and month 3

  6. Anxiety and Depression assessment by DASS scale

    Measured: at month 1 and month 3

  7. Plasma and erythrocyte assays of magnesium

    Measured: at inclusion visit, month 1 and month 3

  8. Creatinine dosage

    Measured: at inclusion visit

  9. Urine assays of magnesium

    Measured: at month 1 and month 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Magnesium: Magnésium UPSA Action Continue® in people with Neuropathic Pain Induced by Mastectomy, run by University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Patrick LACARIN (04 73 75 11 95, placarin@chu-clermontferrand.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measure of average pain intensity by a numerical rating scale (time frame: 5 days before the visit at 1 month post-mastectomy). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03063931, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Feb 2017.
