Tarah Jean Ballinger, MD, Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, IN, discusses findings from the EAZ171 trial (NCT04001829), which addresses racial disparities in treatment-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) among Black women receiving weekly paclitaxel versus every three-week docetaxel for early-stage breast cancer. Black women on weekly paclitaxel experienced higher TIPN rates and dose reductions, suggesting docetaxel as a preferred treatment to enhance tolerance and potentially improve outcomes for Black women. This interview took place during the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Meeting in Chicago, IL.
