lactic acid has been researched along with Foot Dermatoses in 11 studies

Lactic Acid: A normal intermediate in the fermentation (oxidation, metabolism) of sugar. The concentrated form is used internally to prevent gastrointestinal fermentation. (From Stedman, 26th ed)
2-hydroxypropanoic acid : A 2-hydroxy monocarboxylic acid that is propanoic acid in which one of the alpha-hydrogens is replaced by a hydroxy group.

Foot Dermatoses: Skin diseases of the foot, general or unspecified.

Trial Outcomes

To Determine Whether the Prophylactic Use of a Topical Urea/Lactic Acid Cream Can Decrease the Incidence/Severity of Capecitabine-caused Palmar-plantar Erythrodysesthesia

A patient self-reported hand-foot syndrome (HFSD), also known as palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia, was completed daily while applying the cream. Patients rated skin severity symptoms individually in their hands and in their feet. Definitions of symptoms, which were based on Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v3.0, were provided to patients. The number of patients reporting moderate to severe symptoms in either hands or feet were tabulated and percentages are reported. (NCT00296036)
Timeframe: First 3 weeks of treatment

To Evaluate the Potential Toxicity of Urea/Lactic Acid Cream

Frequency and severity of adverse events reported by patients in weekly diary and evaluated through clinical assessment by NCI CTCAE v3.0. The number of patients reporting grade 3 or higher events are reported in this outcome measure. For a full list of all events, please refer to the Adverse Events section of this report. (NCT00296036)
