Objective We conducted a questionnaire survey of oncology specialists to investigate the frequency of administration of different drugs for the management of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy in Japan in 2015. Our group published Clinical Guidelines for the Management of Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in 2017 (CIPN-GL2017). In these guidelines, we recommended duloxetine only. To verify the effect of the publication of the CIPN-GL2017, we conducted a questionnaire survey in 2019. Methods In 2015 and again in 2019, we investigated the use of vitamin B12, antiepileptic agents, duloxetine, antidepressants other than duloxetine, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, opioids and the Kampo compound (goshajinkigan) in a questionnaire employing a three-point scale wherein A implies routine or prophylactic administration, B implies occasional administration and C implies infrequent administration. Results We sent the questionnaires via email to 971 diplomates of the Subspecialty Board of Japanese Society of Medical Oncology in 2015 and 1239 diplomates in 2019. The administration ratio (A + B) of duloxetine for numbness and pain was 46.8 and 31.7%, respectively, in 2015 and 68.9% (P &amp;lt; 0.01) and 73.1% (P &amp;lt; 0.01) in 2019. In response to the question regarding awareness of the CIPN-GL2017, 53.2% of respondents to the 2019 questionnaire were aware of the CIPN-GL2017. Among the respondents with an awareness of the CIPN-GL2017, the prescription rate of duloxetine (78.3%) for pain was significantly higher than that among respondents without any awareness (67.4%). Conclusions It is possible that the publication of CIPN-GL2017 influenced administration preferences of oncology specialists.
