Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and dose-limiting side effect of neurotoxic chemotherapy (ie, taxanes, vinca alkaloids, platinum, and bortezomib) that interferes with patients' daily function and worsens quality of life (1-3). In a study of 512 cancer survivors, 47% reported persistent neuropathy up to 6 years after chemotherapy completion. Furthermore, these survivors exhibited altered gait patterns with slower and shorter steps, as well as a fall risk 1.8-fold greater than that of those without CIPN (4). In another study, 12% of cancer survivors with CIPN reported falls within a 3-month period (5). These evidences highlight the need for an effective treatment for CIPN to improve quality of life and safety among cancer survivors. Current empirical treatments for CIPN include symptom management with analgesics, antidepressants, and antiepileptics (6). However, these approaches are limited not only by toxicities but also by patients' reluctance to further medicate a medication-related condition.
