Trial Information

A Phase 1-2, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetic Profile of 0.1% Uracil Ointment (1UO)in the Prevention of Hand-Foot Syndrome (HFS) in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer Treated With Capecitabine


Capecitabine is used in the treatment of human breast cancer among other human cancers.
Following absorption, capecitabine is converted enzymatically to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). The
administration of capecitabine or 5-FU can cause a cutaneous toxicity known as hand-foot
syndrome (HFS) or palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (PPE). HFS is progressive with dose and
duration of exposure to 5-FU or capecitabine. HFS is characterized by progressive redness
and cracking of hands and feet. Currently, there are no approved therapies for HFS.


Inclusion Criteria:



- Females, at least 18 years old

- Histologically or cytologically confirmed metastatic breast cancer

- You also cannot have any ulcerations or open wounds on palms of hands or soles of
feet

Exclusion Criteria:

- Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 2 weeks (6 weeks for
nitrosoureas or mitomycin C)prior to entering the study or if you have not recovered
to Grade 1 or better (except for alopecia)from adverse events due to agents
administered more than 2 weeks earlier.

- Use vitamin 6, chronic use of Cox-2 inhibitors, use full-dose anti- coagulants or use
nicotine patches.

The above is not a complete list of eligibility criteria. Please see your study doctor
for more information.
