Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

There are several mechanisms concerning pathophysiology of paclitaxel induced peripheral neuropathy. One of the main mechanisms is induction of Schwann cell dedifferentiation by paclitaxel. At the preclinical level, roflumilast potently inhibited paclitaxel-induced dedifferentiation of cultured Schwann cells, yet this positive effect have not been clinically investigated.
