Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 18 years of age or older.
  • Pathologically confirmed cancer receiving capecitabine-based anti-cancer therapy (capecitabine with or without other anti-cancer drugs).
  • With HFS determined by "CTCAE v5.0 - PPE" as grade 2 or above.
  • Able to use topical medications and complete questionnaires reliably with or without assistance.
  • ECOG performance score < 2.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Has HFS due to other medications and does not recover within 4 weeks prior to baseline.
  • Other skin disorders that will affect efficacy evaluation on the hands and feet, including but not limited to: tinea of feet and hands, hand/foot eczema, palmoplantar pustulosis, palmoplantar keratosis, acrodermatitis continua etc.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness as determined by the investigator including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, recent myocardial infarction, uncontrolled hypotension or hypertension, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness and social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.

  • Significantly abnormal lab test:

    • Inadequate hematologic function as indicated by:

      • Absolute neutrophil counts (ANC) < 1,500 /mm^3
      • Hemoglobin (Hgb) < 8.5 g/dL
      • Platelet count < 75,000 /mm^3
      • PT or PTT > 1.5 x ULN (if patients on anticoagulants: PT INR > 3.5 x ULN)

    • Inadequate renal and liver function as indicated by:

      • Albumin < 2.8 g/dL
      • Total bilirubin > 1.5 x ULN (or > 2.5 x ULN for patients with Gilbert's syndrome)
      • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and alkaline phosphatase > 2 x ULN
      • Creatinine > 2 x ULN
  • Any other condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would impede compliance, hinder completion of the study, compromise the well-being of the patient, or interfere with the study outcomes.

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Placebo Comparator: Vehicle Gel

Experimental: Gel containing Acetylated Natural Nucleotides
Drug: Gel containing Acetylated Natural Nucleotides
The study drug is a gel containing acetylated natural nucleotides.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of patients who achieve "NCI CTCAE v5.0 - Palmar-Plantar Erythrodysesthesia (PPE)" grade 0 or 1
Time Frame: 6 weeks
The proportion of patients who achieve "NCI CTCAE v5.0 - PPE" grade 0 or 1 at week 6 from grade 2 or above at baseline
6 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety of study drug
Time Frame: 6 weeks
Safety of study drug as determined by number of participants with abnormal laboratory values and/or Adverse Events that are related to treatment
6 weeks
Proportion of patients who achieve at least one grade improvement in HFS severity
Time Frame: 6 weeks
The proportion of patients who achieve at least one grade improvement in HFS severity according to "NCI CTCAE v5.0 - PPE" by week 6
6 weeks
Change from baseline in patient reported pain using Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
Time Frame: 6 weeks
Change from baseline in patient reported pain using VAS at week 6. VAS is a scale used to determine the pain intensity experienced by individuals, which consists of a line 10 cm in length, with the left side signifying no pain and the right side signifying the worst pain ever.
6 weeks
Change from baseline in Hand-Foot Skin Reaction and Quality of Life (HF-QoL) Questionnaire total score
Time Frame: 6 weeks
Change from baseline in HF-QoL Questionnaire total score at week 6. HF-QoL questionnaire is comprised of a 20-item symptom domain and an 18-item daily activity domain. Each item is rated on a 5-point scale from 0 (not at all) to 4 (always or extremely) during the previous week. The HF-QoL symptom and daily activity total scores are transformed to a scale of 0 to 100, based on the sum of each unit-weighted item score divided by the maximum score. Higher scores on the HF-QoL indicate worse quality of life or greater symptom burden.
6 weeks
The proportion of patients whose anti-cancer medications are impacted due to HFS
Time Frame: 6 weeks
The proportion of patients who need temporary interruption or permanent discontinuation and/or dose reduction of anti-cancer medications due to HFS
6 weeks
