ABSTRACT
Chemotherapy- induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) can be caused by many commonly used chemotherapeutic agents, such as taxanes, vinca alkaloids, platinum drugs, thalidomide,and also by newer agents such as bortezomib. Both animal experiments and clinical studies are being conducted to investigate strategies for preventing CIPN or ameliorating established CIPN without affecting the antitumor efficacy of chemotherapy. Treatments using calcium and magnesium infusions,glutathione,lipoid acid are being evaluated for their clinical application.
