Brief summary

It is important for patients treated with anti-EGFR therapies to get access to cosmetic options to preserve their skin condition during treatment. Anti-EGFR therapies are known to fragilize epidermis and to provoke rashes; which often lead to treatment discontinuation. The aim of this study is to demonstrate that the Onco-Rash cream is able to preserve skin condition without side effects. Decreasing skin toxicity is expected to improve patients' life and facilitate treatment follow-up.

Interventions

DRUGApplication of Onco-Rash cream

The cream Onco-Rash will be administered topically. The patient will be asked to apply the cream twice a day in the morning and evening for 6 weeks to clean, dry skin on selected target areas of the body, namely: the face, the front of the neck, the front of the chest, the back of the neck and the back of the chest. The product penetrates by gentle massage.

DRUGApplication of Onco-Neutre cream

The cream Onco-Neutre will be administered topically. The patient will be asked to apply the cream twice a day in the morning and evening for 6 weeks to clean, dry skin on selected target areas of the body, namely: the face, the front of the neck, the front of the chest, the back of the neck and the back of the chest. The product penetrates by gentle massage.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Measurement of the percentage of Onco-Rash failure by counting the number of patients with a rash grade ≥ 2 (NCI-CTCAE scale).6 weeks after the start of the anti-EGFR treatment.Measurement of Onco-Rash percentage of failure by counting the number of patients for whom a skin rash with a grade ≥ 2 (NCI-CTCAE scale) will occur between 0-6 weeks after the start of the anti-EGFR treatment. The introduction of an anti-inflammatory, a calming or an antibiotic treatment for acne will also be considered as failure.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Timing of apparition of grade 1, 2 or ≥ 2 skin eruption: number of days between the start of the anti-EGFR treatment and the apparition of a skin eruption.6 weeks after the start of the anti-EGFR treatment.Comparison of timing of apparition of grade 1, 2 or ≥ 2 skin eruption between the Onco-Rash arm and the Onco-Neutral arm.
Percentage of patients with a grade 1, 2 or ≥ 2 skin eruption6 weeks after the start of the anti-EGFR treatment.Number of patients for whom a grade 1, 2 or ≥ 2 skin eruption have been reported
Percentage of patients for whom treatment for acne (anti-inflammatory or antibiotic) has been introduced6 weeks after the start of the anti-EGFR treatment.Number of patients for whom treatment for acne (anti-inflammatory or antibiotic) has been prescribed
