Outcome measures have been focused on assessing the impact of acupuncture on the patients' quality of life, symptom burden of CIPN and quantifying any effect size. There will also be a preliminary health economic evaluation of cost effectiveness. The data will be disseminated in addition to being used to establish whether a larger, multisite trial to confirm efficacy across all diagnostic groups, user acceptability and cost effectiveness is appropriate. This work will facilitate the team validating the study protocol and design as a template for a multicentre study and confirm user acceptability of the approach through additional qualitative data collected through focus group work at the completion of study participation.
