Biomarkers of fatigue related to adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer: evaluation of plasma and lymphocyte expression
Conclusions:
We conclude that fatigue induced by chemotherapy in BC patients is associated with changes in IL1-ra plasma levels and in TGF-? lymphocyte expression. Its mechanism may be different than that observed in long-term BC survivors or that induced by radiation therapy.Trial registrationNCT02041364 [ClinicalTrials.gov]
