Vitamin B3 derivative may soothe Chemotherapy's lingering nerve damage

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at screening to be eligible for study participation and agree to take appropriate precautions to avoid pregnancy from screening through follow-up. * Males must agree to take appropriate precautions to avoid fathering a child from screening through follow-up. The following methods have been determined to be more than 99% effective (\<1% failure rate per year when used consistently and correctly) \[69\] and are permitted under this protocol for use by the patient and his/her partner: * Complete abstinence from sexual intercourse when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the patient * Double barrier methods * Condom with spermicide in conjunction with use of an intrauterine device * Condom with spermicide in conjunction with use of a diaphragm * Surgical sterilization (bilateral oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy, tubal ligation or vasectomy) at least 6 weeks prior to taking study treatment. In the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow-up levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and/or estradiol * Non-hormonal intrauterine device used as directed by provider placing this is also acceptable.
