First seen Nov 06, 2025 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 21 times

Summary

This study tests a treatment called Scrambler therapy for nerve pain caused by chemotherapy in teens and young adults (ages 15-39) who have finished active cancer treatment. The therapy uses mild electrical signals to 'scramble' pain messages to the brain. Researchers will compare those who get the therapy right away to those on a waitlist, measuring pain, physical function, and quality of life. The goal is to find a safe, drug-free way to ease this common side effect.
