regarding the pathogenesis of paclitaxel-induced painful neuropathy provided for
highly interesting reading. Interestingly, the past few years have seen the emergence
of a number of novel new agents that are increasingly proving to be highly effective
in the management of paclitaxel-induced painful neuropathy.To read this article in full you will need to make a payment
