Summary
This is an observational study of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (CIPN) patients to be investigated prospectively in order to assess responsiveness of a set of outcome measures in an international multi-center study.
Objectives
Aims: The primary aim for this study is to test responsiveness of the different assessment methods used in the core study, in a multi-center, multi-regional International setting, comparing changes from baseline to end of treatment. Secondary aims are:
- to evaluate responsiveness (changes from base line to end of treatment) also of the other outcome measures used in the Extended Study;
- to evaluate mid-treatment data predictiveness of end of treatment neurological status for each outcome measure;
- to evaluate recovery rate/modification of the neurological status for the follow up evaluations (3/6/12/24 months after treatment), stratifying data for different drugs.
