Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Patient-reported CIPN symptoms

Symptoms across to sensory, motor and automic domains will be measured using the questionnarie the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-CIPN twenty-item scale. The total questionnaire has a score from 0 to 100, in which a higher score indicates increased symptom burden.

Time frame
Change from Baseline to 12 weeks (after intervention)

Secondary outcomes

1

Breast cancer quality of life

assessed by European Organization for Research and Treatment of Breast Cancer-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire. The total questionnaire has a score from 0 to 100, in which a higher score indicates increased quality of life.

Time frame
Change from baseline to 12 weeks (after intervention)
2

CIPN severity

assessed by clinical version of The Total Neuropathy Score. Each item is scored from 0 to 4, with the total score ranging from 0 to 24 points; a higher score indicates greater neuropathy severity.

Time frame
Change from Baseline to 12 weeks (after intervention)
3

Quality of sleep

assessed by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index that is a self-rated questionnaire which assesses sleep quality and disturbances. The global score, with a range of 0-21 points, "0" indicating no difficulty and "21" indicating severe difficulties.

Time frame
Change from Baseline to 12 weeks (after intervention)
4

Mood Assessment

assessed by Scale for Mood Assessment. The scale tries to assess four moods; anxiety, angerhostility, sadness-depression, and happiness. Itd subscale is scory from 0 to 10, a higher score in the EVEA subscales would indicate that the respondent has a higher level of sad-depressed, anxious, angryhostile, and happy mood, respectively.

Time frame
