Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Cytotoxic chemotherapy is usually scaled to the body surface area (BSA), and is currently not adjusted to the body proportions of lean and fat (i.e. body composition) of individual patients. Patients with low muscle mass behave like patients "overdosed" with chemotherapy resulted in dose-limiting toxicities (e.g. dose reductions, treatment delays or permanent treatment discontinuation), independently of the patient's weight.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age: more than 18 years old up to 75 years old including. Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the colon. * Has undergone a curative resection for stage III colon cancer. * Scheduled to receive 6 months of Oxaliplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy at a dose of 85 mg/m² of Oxaliplatin every 2 weeks (simplified FOLFOX 4 regimen). * The following laboratory values obtained ≤ 28 days prior to inclusion: WBC ≥ 3000/mm3; ANC ≥1500/mm3; PLT ≥100,000/mm3; HgB ≥10.0g/dl; Total bilirubin ≤1.5 x upper normal limit (UNL); Serum creatinine ≤1.5 x UNL; Serum calcium ≤ 1.2 x UNL; Serum magnesium ≤ 1.2 x UNL. * Central venous access line present or patient scheduled to have a central line placed prior to starting chemotherapy or the treatment protocol. * Negative pregnancy test (serum or urine) done ≤ 7 days prior to registration, for women of childbearing potential only. * Ability to complete questionnaire(s) by themselves or with assistance. * ECOG Performance Status (PS) of 0, 1 for patients until 70 years old included and ECOG PS of 0 for patients between 70 to 75 years old included. * Has provided informed written consent. * Patient willing to provide blood sample for research purposes * Patient affiliated to a French social security system Exclusion Criteria: * Pregnant or breastfeeding women * Men or women of childbearing potential who are unwilling to employ adequate contraception since this study involves agents that have known genotoxic, mutagenic and teratogenic effects * Pre-existing peripheral neuropathy of any grade. * Prior treatment with neurotoxic chemotherapy such as Oxaliplatin, cisplatin, taxanes, or vinca alkaloids. * Treatment with 1) the anticonvulsants carbamazepine (e.g., Tegretol®), phenytoin (e.g., Dilantin®), valproic acid (e.g. Depakine®), gabapentin (Neurontin®); pregabalin (Lyrica®); 2) the following neurotropic agents: venlafaxine (Effexor®), desvenlafaxine (Pristiq®), milnacipran (Savella®) or duloxetine (Cymbalta®); 3) Tricyclic antidepressants (such as amitryptilline) or 4) any other agent specifically given to prevent or treat neuropathy. * Family history of a genetic/familial neuropathy. * Participation in another medication trial within 30 days prior to study entry * Legal incapacity or physical, psychological social or geographical status interfering with the patient's ability to sign the informed consent or to terminate the study * History of other solid tumor in 3 years before the inclusion, excepted of cancer in situ of the cervix and skin cancer (basal or squamous cell) treated and controlled.
