Chemotherapeutic agents, such as vincristine, are well known
antineoplastic and cytotoxic drugs, affecting patients broadly during
treatment of cancer. Well known side effects, such as constipation
and neuropathic pain, affect the quality of life of these patients
recovering from cancer as well as its treatment. An option that
alleviates troublesome side effects while still allowing the treatment
to work would assist patients with wellbeing and comfort.
Osteopathic manipulative treatments (OMT) are often utilized for
various ailments in both pediatric and adult populations. A previous
pilot study investigated the safety and feasibility of OMT in pediatric
oncology patients and reported no serious adverse events attributed
to OMT intervention. We hypothesized that OMT intervention during
cancer therapy will improve constipation and neuropathic pain for
children with leukemia undergoing chemotherapy.
