Relationship Between Great Toe Strength And Symptoms of Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN) (NCT07009717)

The Role Of Great Toe Strength And Its Association With The Severity Of Symptoms Of Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN)

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Interventional Protocol ๐Ÿ“Š Observational Clinical Research Sponsor: University of Florida

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

Great Toe Strength (GTS) is a potential clinical biomarker that has been associated with functional mobility and health; Additionally, GTS has been identified in the literature as one of the early symptoms of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). The purpose of this research study is to evaluate GTS in individuals with CIPN and healthy adults using ToeScale and see how it relates to nerve issues from chemotherapy. Additionally, we aim to assess the usability of the novel GTS assessment device, ToeScale among the participants. As a part of this study visit, you will complete some questionnaires followed by GTS and balance and gait assessments.
