AI Technical Summary
Current treatments for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathies are inadequate, with no effective pharmacological interventions and existing methods like cooling gloves having poor tolerance and limited efficacy.
A topical composition containing an adrenergic agonist, such as brimonidine tartrate, is developed for use in a hydrogel form to prevent chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathies by inducing vasoconstriction and reducing chemotherapy dose at the treatment site.
The composition effectively prevents and treats peripheral neuropathies by reducing chemotherapy exposure at the site, offering better tolerance and broader application than cooling methods, with minimal systemic absorption and adverse effects.
