Abstrakt: Purpose: The purpose of this retrospective cohort study was to evaluate whether several potentially preventive therapies reduced the rate of oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (OIPN) in colorectal cancer patients and to assess the relationship of sociodemographic/clinical factors with OIPN diagnosis. Methods: Data were obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database combined with Medicare claims. Eligible patients were diagnosed with colorectal cancer between 2007 and 2015, ≥ 66 years of age, and treated with oxaliplatin. Two definitions were used to denote diagnosis of OIPN based on diagnosis codes: OIPN 1 (specific definition, drug-induced polyneuropathy) and OIPN 2 (broader definition, additional codes for peripheral neuropathy). Cox regression was used to obtain hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the relative rate of OIPN within 2 years of oxaliplatin initiation. Results: There were 4792 subjects available for analysis. At 2 years, the unadjusted cumulative incidence of OIPN 1 was 13.1% and 27.1% for OIPN 2. For both outcomes, no therapies reduced the rate of OIPN diagnosis. The anticonvulsants gabapentin and oxcarbazepine/carbamazepine were associated with an increased rate of OIPN (both definitions) as were increasing cycles of oxaliplatin. Compared to younger patients, those 75–84 years of age experienced a 15% decreased rate of OIPN. For OIPN 2, prior peripheral neuropathy and moderate/severe liver disease were also associated with an increased hazard rate. For OIPN 1, state buy-in health insurance coverage was associated with a decreased hazard rate. Conclusion: Additional studies are needed to identify preventive therapeutics for OIPN in cancer patients treated with oxaliplatin. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
