Cis-platin, oxaliplatin which is the platin agent used in (m)Folfirinox and taxanes such as Abraxane (nab-Paclitaxel) are all neurotoxic and can cause chemo induced peripheral neuropathy. More pancreatic oncologists are beginning to consider using cold therapy to improve quality of life and patient experience for patients on these neurotoxic agents
I’m happy to hear that - we are hopeful to start the KRAS trial with the pills next at Stage 3 trial. We would like to try that before the Fulforinox, not wanting to exhaust both proven standards of care.
