Does Acne Rash During Adolescence Predict Skin Reaction to Cetuximab

ABSTRACT: The hypothesis of this study is that patients who suffered from acne vulgaris during adolescence are at greater risk of developing acneiform skin rash due to cetuximab.

Skin Rash Study Before Chemotherapy in Colorectal & Head and Neck Cancer Patients

Project description:The purpose of this study is to determine if using preventive treatments such as Doxycycline (an anti-biotic) capsules, sunscreen with SPF 30, Hydrocortisone 1% cream and a moisturizer will help to reduce the incidence and severity of the skin rash associated with Cetuximab (Erbitux) when compared to receiving standard care for the treatment of skin rash.

Acne lesion vs. normal skin. Also includes non-acne patients' normal skin samples.

Project description:The pathogenesis of acne has been linked to multiple factors such as increased sebum production, inflammation, follicular hyperkeratinization, and the action of Propionibacterium acnes within the follicle. In an attempt to understand the specific genes involved in inflammatory acne, we performed gene expression profiling in acne patients. Skin biopsies were obtained from an inflammatory papule and from normal skin in six patients with acne. Biopsies were also taken from normal skin of six subjects without acne. Gene array expression profiling was conducted using Affymetrix HG-U133A 2.0 arrays comparing lesional to nonlesional skin in acne patients and comparing nonlesional skin from acne patients to skin from normal subjects. Within the acne patients, 211 genes are upregulated in lesional skin compared to nonlesional skin. A significant proportion of these genes are involved in pathways that regulate inflammation and extracellular matrix remodeling, and they include matrix metalloproteinases 1 and 3, IL-8, human beta-defensin 4, and granzyme B. These data indicate a prominent role of matrix metalloproteinases, inflammatory cytokines, and antimicrobial peptides in acne lesions. These studies are the first describing the comprehensive changes in gene expression in inflammatory acne lesions and are valuable in identifying potential therapeutic targets in inflammatory acne.

Comparison of Two Preemptive Treatment Strategies of Panitumumab Mediated Skin Toxicity and Assessment of QoL in Patient With Ras-wt Colorectal Cancer

Project description:80 - 90 % of the patients treated with anti-EGFR antibodies (panitumumab or cetuximab) experience skin toxicity, mostly acne like skin rash. A standardized treatment of skin rash is neither established as standard arm for clinical trials nor as guideline for the treatment of skin toxicity in clinical practice. While an improvement of QoL has been demonstrated for panitumumab and cetuximab in comparison to best supportive care the data basis for patient related outcomes regarding skin toxicity deriving from randomized trials is still small. Recent surveys among German oncologist revealed that physicians are reluctant to use oral antibiotics as preemptive treatment . Only 19 out of 110 oncologists stated that they are thinking about using preemptive treatment in patients with acne-like skin rash. Thus, in the present trial two main questions will be addressed: (i) Can preemptive treatment with oral doxycycline be replaced by a sequential skin treatment strategy (i.e. local treatment with erythromycin followed by doxycycline in case of inefficacy = development of acne) without compromising treatment efficacy of skin toxicity treatment? (ii) Comparison of general and skin related QoL between both treatment arms.

Sequencing and Quantitative Analysis of Skin Transcriptomes from Rats with EGFR Inhibitors Induced Rash

Project description:Skin mRNA profiles of wild-type (WT) and EGFR Inhibitors (Gefitinib and Afatinib) induced rash rats were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina GAIIx. Raw sequences were mapped to the rat reference sequence by Hisat2 v2.0.5. FeatureCounts v1.5.0-p3 was used to count the reads numbers mapped to each gene. FPKM of each gene was calculated based on the length of the gene and reads count mapped to this gene. Differential expression analysis was performed using the DESeq2 R package (1.16.1).

Study of Prophylactic Topical Dapsone 5% Gel Versus Moisturizer for Cetuximab-induced Papulopustular (Acneiform) Rash in Patients With mCRC or HNSCC Without Previous or Concurrent RT

Project description:The purpose of this study is to see if the investigators can prevent or reduce the severity of the Cetuximab-related acne rash. Two different topical agents will be applied to the skin. One topical agent is the dapsone gel and the other is a skin moisturizer. Dapsone gel is an FDA approved medication that you apply to the face. It is commonly used to treat acne. Skin moisturizers are recommended to patients who receive Cetuximab treatment. In addition to these topical agents they will be given a pill to take once a day. This pill has already been shown to help fight rashes from Cetuximab.
