Targeting translation: a review of preclinical animal models in the development of treatments for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.
Journal of the Peripheral Nervous System : JPNS 2023 March 31
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The expanding use of chemotherapy in curative cancer treatment has simultaneously resulted in a substantial and growing cohort of cancer survivors with prolonged disability from chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). CIPN is associated with several commonly prescribed chemotherapeutics, including taxanes, platinum-based drugs, vinca alkaloids, bortezomib and thalidomide. These distinct classes of chemotherapeutics, with their varied neurotoxic mechanisms, often cause patients to suffer from a broad profile of neuropathic symptoms including chronic numbness, paraesthesia, loss of proprioception or vibration sensation and neuropathic pain. Decades of investigation by numerous research groups has provided substantial insights describing this disease. Despite these advances there is currently no effective curative or preventative treatment option for CIPN and only the dual serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor Duloxetine is recommended by clinical guidelines for the symptomatic treatment of painful CIPN.
METHODS: In this review, we examine current preclinical models, with our analysis focused upon translational relevance and value.
RESULTS: Animal models have been pivotal in achieving a better understanding of the pathogenesis of CIPN. However, it has been challenging for researchers to develop appropriate preclinical models that are effective vehicles for the discovery of translatable treatment options.
INTERPRETATION: Further development of preclinical models targeting translational relevance will promote value for preclinical outcomes in CIPN studies. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
