About this trial

This study aims to evaluate the effect of surgical glove compression as a prophylactic method to prevent paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy. Participants will be randomly assigned to two groups: one receiving standard care, and the other receiving prophylactic surgical glove compression. The study will compare the development, severity of neuropathy in the hands and fingers, and its impact on quality of life.
