The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a $1,832,910 Project Grant (CFDA 93.866) to The Ohio State University to conduct a multi-center, Phase II randomized clinical trial investigating the use of adapted Argentine tango dance as a non-pharmacological treatment for chemotherapy-induced neuropathy in breast cancer survivors. The project, titled "DANCE-BASED AVENUES TO ADVANCE NONPHARMACOLOGIC TREATMENT OF CHEMOTHERAPY EFFECTS (DAANCE): A MULTICENTER TRIAL," aims to evaluate the impact of tango dance on patient-reported sensation, dual-task performance, neuromotor control, falls incidence, and patient-reported outcomes. The study will also explore the treatment effects on biomarkers of neurotoxicity and inflammation, as well as cognitive load. Yale University was awarded a $137,819 sub-grant to serve as a co-lead investigator and oversee clinical recruitment, study execution, and biomarker analysis. The project period runs from September 20, 2024, to August 31, 2029.
