Abstract

To date, there are no effective interventions to prevent the onset and severity of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). Exercising during chemotherapy treatment has displayed a range of clinical benefits, yet only limited published studies have investigated whether exercise is protective against preventing CIPN. This Editorial discusses a randomised control study of the efficacy of strength or balance exercise to prevent CIPN.
