Neuropathy: case report In a prospective observational study involving 32 patients, one patient [age and sex not stated] was described, who developed grade II neuropathy during treatment with bortezomib for multiple myeloma. The patient who had multiple myeloma presented with renal failure and was placed on dialysis. The patient received IV bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 along with dexamethasone weekly for myeloma. The patient received total 4 cycles and each cycle consisted of 4 weeks treatment. However, during treatment, the patient developed grade II neuropathy as a side effect of bortezomib. Therefore, the dose of bortezomib was reduced [duration of treatment to reaction onset and outcome not stated]. Pandey A, et al.
