NCT01136005

Brief Summary

Objective: To assess the preemptive effect of Bepanthen® on decreasing the incidence of specific ≥ grade 2 dermatological side effects of interest in respect of compliance to EGFRI agents, HRQoL and the adherence during the 6-week skin treatment period. The adherence to the study creams will also be studied.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • grade 2 or more papulopustular eruption

    The incidence of grade ≥ 2 papulopustular eruption during the 6 week skin treatment within Bepanthen and Cetomacrogol, as measured by the CTCAE v4.0 and DERETT-H, an dermatologic specific healthcare provider questionnaire for Dermatological Reactions Targeted Therapy.

    6 weeks

  • impact of papulopustular eruptions on HRQoL

    Assess the impact of papulopustular eruptions on HRQoL as measured by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy Questionnaire - EGFRI (FACT-EGFRI) and newly developed symptom experience diary Dermatological Reactions Targeted Therapy - Patients (DERETT-P).

    6 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • patient tolerability and satisfaction of study cream

    6 weeks

  • effectiveness of study cream on the adherence

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Male and female subjects
  • ≥18 years of age.
  • Patients must have signed an approved informed consent form prior to registration on study.
  • Histological proof of cancer.
  • A planned course of EGFRI treatment for any type of cancer. Patients must be entered on study ≤ 7 days before EGFRI treatment begins.
  • Have an Eastern Co-operative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 2.
  • Ability to complete questionnaire(s) by themselves or with assistance.
  • Patients need to be free of infection and not using any topical treatments on the skin.

You may not qualify if:

  • Use of other concurrent topical creams or lotions at baseline.
  • Concomitant use of medications that may affect trial results (e.a. concurrent use of topical antibiotics, topical steroids, and other topical treatments on face and chest within 14 days of Day 0 (baseline); treatment with any systemic antibiotics within 7 days prior to Day 0.
  • Active dermatological conditions other than papulopustular eruption that may affect trial results. A skin examination reveals the presence of another skin disease in face or chest that may obscure rash to EGFRI and/or condition (excessive facial hair, excessive scarring, sunburn, or other disfigurement) located on the skin that, in the study physician's opinion, would confound the evaluation of the papulopustular eruption.
  • Known allergy or hypersensitivity to ingredients in Bepanthen® or Cetomacrogol.
  • Known sensitivity, papulopustular eruption or other abnormal skin reaction to topical or systemic medications or cleansing products at baseline.
  • Prior treatment with targeted therapy of any kind.
  • Current use of agents that are known to be strong inducers or inhibitors of CYP3A4 that can not be stopped
