Table describes sample statistics for PRO-CTCAE item (Range = 0–4) QLQ-CIPN20 sensory and motor subscale (Range = 0–100), 0–10 NRS of worst CIPN pain intensity (Range = 0–10) and TNSc© (Range = 0–20) scores at each study time point (T1–T4). Higher scores on all measures represent worse CIPN severity
