Summary

This study tests whether taking fish oil by mouth can prevent or lessen peripheral neuropathy—a common, painful nerve damage side effect—in people receiving the chemotherapy drug bortezomib for multiple myeloma. Researchers will enroll 200 adults who have not yet started bortezomib and have no existing nerve problems. The goal is to see if fish oil reduces the chance or severity of nerve damage during treatment.
