Peripheral neuropathy is a common side effect of chemotherapeutic agents that frequently necessitates dose-reduction, truncation of, or change in therapy. HDAC6 inhibition has demonstrated preclinical efficacy in preventing and/or reversing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy and furthermore has demonstrated synergistic antitumor activity with various chemotherapies. Here, we report the abbreviated results of a Phase Ib trial of ricolinostat, an HDAC6-specific inhibitor, in combination with paclitaxel, in the treatment of recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.
