Tracjectories and Predictors of Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Sponsor: The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

Summary

The goal of this study is to explore the trajectory patterns of chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy over the course of chemotherapy and identify predictors of distinct trajectories in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. A perspective longitudinal study design is utilized. Chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy was assessed at one week after the first use of Vincristine (VCR) (T1), one week after the second use of VCR (T2), one week after the third use of VCR (T3), one week after the fourth use of VCR (T4), two weeks after T4 (T5), two weeks after T5 (T6), two weeks after T5 (T7). Patients' demographic and clinical characteristics, physical symptoms, nutrition status, psychological distress, sleep quality, physical activity, perceived social support and coping strategy are obtained at baseline.
