Official Title: A Randomized Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study of the Effects of Lawsonia Inermis on Palmar-Plantar Erythrodysesthesia Induced by Capecitabine and/or Pegylated Liposo

Brief Summary: The palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (PPE) is the only clinical adverse event that commonly occurs with capecitabine and/or pegylated liposomal doxorubicin treatment and it warrants special attention because it is the most common dose-limiting toxicity. this study is designed to test the effectiveness of a henna treatment protocol in the management of capecitabine and/or pegylated liposomal doxorubicin induced palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia.
