Summary
This study tests whether taking polyunsaturated fatty acids (like omega-3s) can prevent nerve damage in the hands and feet of people with colorectal cancer who receive oxaliplatin chemotherapy after surgery. About 120 participants will be followed for 8 months to see if the supplements reduce the chance of developing nerve pain or numbness. The goal is to find a simple, safe way to protect nerves during cancer treatment.
