Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Hand foot skin reaction (HFS) from capecitabine is one of the most common adverse events from capecitabine. Urea cream has been proved its benefit to prevent HFS from sorafenib. Prior study using urea cream prophylaxis in patients receiving capecitabine was negative. However, result from aformentioned study was reported primarily from result of first cycle capecitabine. Urea cream as a prevention of HFS from capecitabine has been used in clinical practice in Thailand according to expert's opinion. We conducted the study to evaluate wheter the urea cream can prevent HFS or severe HFS.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The patients who is planned to receive capecitabine for at least 3 cycles were enrolled in the study. The patients were randomized to receive 10% urea cream or standard measure. The patients were followed until the end of capecitabine treatment. The patients reported their symptoms of HFS and other adverse events (AE) before starting new cycle of capecitabine. Physician record of HFS and other AE, dose modification of capecitabine and compliance were extracted. We will report incidence of any HFS, \> grade 3 HFS, capecitabine interruption or delay or discontinuation and time to develop HFS among both arms. The results of the study will be used for optimal prophylactic measures in patients treated with capecitabine.
