Managing Pain and Symptom Burden Caused by Chemotherapy in People With Myeloma or Lymphoma

Complete Title: Opioid-Sparing Pain Treatment In Myeloma And Lymphoma Patients Undergoing High-Dose Chemotherapy (OPTIMAL-HiChemo): Randomized Controlled Trial
Trial Phase: III
Investigator: Heather Greenlee

The purpose of this study is to find out whether acupuncture treatments can reduce the need for opioid medication when managing pain caused by chemotherapy. The study will compare the effects of adding acupuncture to usual pain management with those of usual pain management alone, in reducing opioid use by relieving pain. Researchers also want to find out more about the effects of acupuncture treatments on other symptoms caused by cancer treatments and quality of life.
