From a patient report of a man with multiple myeloma:
Terapia: VD (ridotto steroide del 50% per intolleranza): desamethasone 20 mg eseguita. Velcade ridotto a monosettimanale per stipsi e *PNP di G2*: il III ciclo ad agosto 2014 Risposta: VGPR CM pre 0.31 g/dl
All I have found for PNP is 'peripheral neuropathy' and it seems that G2 refers to the G2 phase of the cell cycle.
I am very confused!
Thank you!

Hi Clare.
I think PNP probably = periperhal neuropathy (the context/background of your file should tell you that) and G2 = Grade 2. See the example I found:
Peripheral Sensory Neuropathy:
Grade 1: Asymptomatic or loss of deep tendon reflexes or paresthesia
Grade 2: Moderate symptoms limiting instrumental activities of daily living (ADL)
I see a scale consisting of 5 grades of PNP online.

And here's an article on multiple myeloma treatment and peripheral neuropathy, which mentions diffferent degrees of neuropathy:
