About this study

The management of colorectal cancer often requires oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy, either as part of curative treatment plans or exclusively in palliative situations. Oxaliplatin therefore plays a key role in the management of colorectal cancer. In addition to its digestive and hematological toxicity, oxaliplatin frequently induces chronic, often limiting, sensitive peripheral neuropathy. Only early discontinuation of oxaliplatin can limit the risk of clinically limiting neurotoxicity (grade ≥ 3). In oncology, managing the side-effects of treatment is an essential objective of supportive care, and is open to a variety of complementary medicines, including reflexology. This technique, derived from traditional Chinese medicine, involves stimulating reflex points on the arch of the foot.
