Systemic anti‐cancer therapy associated with the occurrence of peripheral neurotoxicity and, specifically, peripheral neuropathy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? While the effectiveness of systemic anticancer therapy is well documented, it commonly causes severe toxicity. This study of the 467 systemic anticancer therapy agents currently approved globally for clinical and/or research purposes found that peripheral neurotoxicity is associated with 45% of classical chemotherapies, 21% of targeted ...
