Abstract
Chemotherapy-related peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a complication which occurs in the most cancer patients receiving taxanes and platinum-based systemic therapy. CIPN includes the wide range of clinical symptoms, and the peripheral sensitive disorders are the most common. Some patients have CIPN-related symptoms persistent after chemotherapy completion. Impact on patient's quality of life and high prevalence among cancer patients make an active search for new ways of CIPN medical correction relevant. We reviewed the existing data on medical prophylaxis and treatment of CIPN and also presented our observation data with CIPN patients. Based on our research results, we showed that the impact of CIPN on a patient's quality's life was spread beyond the peripheral sensitivity disorder. This should be taken into account for further studying of the possible correction of CIPN.
