Neoadjuvant FOLFOX Chemotherapy for Colon Cancer: Long-Term Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy and Impact on Quality of Life

Assessment of Long-Term Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy and Its Impact on Quality of Life in Colon Cancer Patients After Neoadjuvant Platinum-Containing Chemotherapy

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 25 Feb 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this observational study was to learn about the long-term effects of neoadjuvant (pre-surgery) chemotherapy on patients with locally advanced colon cancer. The main focus was to better understand the severity of long-lasting nerve damage, known as chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), and its impact on patients' quality of life (QoL). The key question the study aimed to answer was: What is the long-term severity of this common adverse event, and how much of an impact does it have on patients' quality of life? Participants provided detailed responses about the severity of their CIPN symptoms and the overall impact on their well-being using the FACT-GOG-Ntx questionnaire.
