Sorafenib is a kinase inhibitor anticancer drug whose repeated administration causes the onset of a peripheral painful neuropathy. Notably, the efficacy of common analgesic drugs is not adequate and this often leads pre-mature discontinuation of anticancer therapy. The aim of this study was to establish a rat model of sorafenib-induced neuropathic pain, and to assess the effect of the new anti-neuropathic compound dimiracetam in comparison with gabapentin, pregabalin and duloxetine.

Abstract

Sorafenib is a kinase inhibitor anticancer drug whose repeated administration causes the onset of a peripheral painful neuropathy. Notably, the efficacy of common analgesic drugs is not adequate and this often leads pre-mature discontinuation of anticancer therapy. The aim of this study was to establish a rat model of sorafenib-induced neuropathic pain, and to assess the effect of the new anti-neuropathic compound dimiracetam in comparison with gabapentin, pregabalin and duloxetine.
