Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Another study found that glutamine effectively reduced peripheral neuropathy in pationts with colorectal cancer being treated with oxaliplatin , thereby decreasing the need for an oxaliplatin dose reduction.
The Annals of pharmacotherapy  •  2008  |  View Paper
By adding glutamine , interference with activities of daily living was lower (16.7% versus 40.9%), and need for oxaliplatin dose reduction was lower (7.1% versus 27.3%).
These data indi-cate that oral glutamine significantly reduces the incidence and severity of peripheral neuropathy of MCRC patients receiving oxaliplatin without affecting response to chemotherapy and survival.
