Outline of Final Research Achievements

We attempted to develop the ointment prevents hand-foot syndrome (HFS) induced by capecitabine (CAP). We developed 3% uracil containing ointment (UO), which possibly inhibits the production of metabolites of CAP.
At first, phase I trail was performed. As a result, 3% UO is safe and unchanging blood concentration of uracil seems UO will not block the treatment effect of CAP. Based on PI trial, we carried out phase II trial that assess the efficacy and safety of UO. Metastatic breast cancer patients were eligible for enrolement, and were treated with q3w CAP, concurrently with application of 3% UO on the palms and the soles of the subjects. As a result, the frequency at the second and the third cycle was 35.3% and 50%, respectively. According to the investigational phase II trial of CAP in Japan, frequency of grade 2 HFS was 75.3%. Thus, our 3% UO might be effective in the prevention of HFS induced by CAP. But to confirm the clinical benefit of UO, RCT may be required in the future.
