Charles L. Loprinzi, M.D., is a medical oncologist. In his clinical time he primarily cares for patients with breast cancer.

Much of his time over the past couple of decades has been used to conduct clinically-based research. Along this line, his primary research is related to cancer-related symptom control. He defines this as conducting trials which aim to try to prevent, and/or treat, and/or better understand symptoms related to cancer and/or cancer treatment. He has been intimately involved with over 100 trials related to this topic, mostly randomized, placebo-controlled trials. Many of these trials have dealt with the following areas:

  • Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy
  • Menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes and vaginal symptoms, in women who do not want to take estrogen
  • Mucositis related to cancer therapy
  • Chemotherapy-associated anorexia/cachexia (appetite loss and/or weight loss)
  • Optimizing communication to help patients decide appropriate cancer therapy for themselves, when there are options

Dr. Loprinzi is a co-director of the Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center's Cancer Prevention and Control (CPC) Program.
