Scientists hunt for genetic clues to chemo side effects
NCT ID NCT02610439
Summary
This study aims to understand why some breast cancer patients develop nerve damage (peripheral neuropathy) from the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel, while others do not. Researchers will analyze the DNA of about 575 patients who previously received this treatment to look for genetic differences. The goal is to identify genetic markers that could predict who is at higher risk for this side effect.
