Brief summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if The Uracil plaster works to treat mild HFS in adults under chemiotherapy. It will also learn about the safety . The main questions it aims to answer are: Does Uracil Plaster lower the number of days participants need to reduce the HFS symptoms? What medical problems do participants have when using the Uracil plaster MD? Researchers will compare the Uracil plaster to a standard lenitive cream to see if Uracil Plaster works better to treat mild HFS. Participants will: Use the plaster or the cream 2/3 times day for 3 weeks Visit the hospital once every week for checkups and tests Keep a diary of their symptoms and the number of times they use the therapy

Interventions

DEVICEUracil 0,5% plasters

Patients will applicate to hands and feet the plaster twice per day for 3 weeks to reduce the HFS grade.

DEVICElenitive cream

Patients will applicate the cream 3 times per day for 3 weeks to compare the change of HFS severity
