Summary
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.
