Neurofilament light chain as in vitro and clinical biomarker of vincristine‐induced peripheral neuropathy

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Vincristine‐induced peripheral neuropathy (VIPN) is a common side effect in children and adolescents treated with vincristine. Assessing VIPN, especially in young children, is challenging due to a lack of sensitive tools. This limits our understanding of the nature and risk factors of VIPN. This study aimed to investigate neurofilament light chain
