NCT ID NCT07362914

Summary

This study is testing if giving a steroid medication (dexamethasone) can reduce painful skin reactions on the hands and feet caused by a chemotherapy drug called liposomal doxorubicin. It will enroll 182 adults with breast cancer who are scheduled to receive this specific chemo regimen. The main goal is to see if a higher dose of steroids is better than a standard dose or no steroids at preventing these debilitating side effects.
