Abstrakt: Although paclitaxel is known to cause mild skin toxicity, it may induce severe HFS requiring drug withdrawal. Patients with high disease burden might receive prolonged paclitaxel chemotherapy. Hence, a grade 2 toxicity would better indicate withdrawal of paclitaxel instead of suspension and rechallenge, to prevent such severe HFS requiring long‐time recovery. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
