City:   New Albany
State:   Indiana
Zip Code:   47150
Conditions:   Palmar-Plantar Erythrodysesthesia - Breast Cancer
Purpose:   The purpose of this research study is to see if combining uracil ointment (1UO) with capecitabine (Xeloda) can prevent Hand-Foot Syndrome. The study will also see what effects 1UO and capecitabine may have in patients with metastatic breast cancer.
Study Summary:   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.
Criteria:   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.
