Predictors for development of oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy in cancer patients as determined by ordered logistic regression analysis
Oxaliplatin causes acute cold-induced neurotoxicity and chronic cumulative neuropathy, which can require dose modification and impacts quality of life. However, effective strategies for managing oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (OIPN) among affected patients remain elusive. This retrospecti...

Summary: | Oxaliplatin causes acute cold-induced neurotoxicity and chronic cumulative neuropathy, which can require dose modification and impacts quality of life. However, effective strategies for managing oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (OIPN) among affected patients remain elusive. This retrospective study aimed to identify predictors for the development of OIPN. Significant risk factors identified included higher body mass index (BMI) (odds ratio [OR] = 1.06, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.00-1.12; P = 0.043), female sex (OR = 1.67, 95%CI = 1.06-2.61; P = 0.026) and higher total dosage (OR = 2.39, 95%CI = 1.67-3.42; P = < 0.0001). High BMI, female sex and high total dosage were identified as significant predictors for the development of OIPN. |
