Summary

This trial will explore if HT-001 Topical Gel can safely reduce skin toxicities associated with EGFR inhibitors and improve patient quality of life.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with cancer, who are starting EGFRI treatment within 4 weeks and have developed a rash or symptoms of it. They must be able to consent, attend visits, expect to live at least 3 months, follow contraceptive rules, and have an ECOG status of 0-2. Excluded are those with less than 8-week EGFRI therapy plan, recent radiation to head/neck/trunk, active infections or uncontrolled diseases that could affect the study's outcome.
What is being tested?
The trial tests HT-001 Topical Gel in various concentrations (0.5%, 1%, and 2%) against a placebo for treating skin toxicities caused by EGFR inhibitors in cancer patients. It has two phases: an open-label phase where all receive HT-001 and a blinded phase where participants get either the gel or placebo randomly.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, typical concerns may include local skin reactions like redness or irritation at the application site. Since this is a topical treatment being tested for safety and tolerability as well as efficacy, close monitoring will identify any potential adverse effects.
