Trial Outcomes & Findings for Systemic and Topical Treatments for Rash Secondary to Erlotinib in Lung Cancer (NCT NCT00473083)
NCT ID: NCT00473083
Last Updated: 2017-04-04
Results Overview
The overall incidence of any grade of erlotinib-induced rash among the three treatment arms. For overall incidence of rash a binary variable will be designed. Data will be summarized with percentages by treatment group.
COMPLETED
PHASE2
150 participants
From onset of rash until resolution, up to 4 weeks following progression, an average of 1 year
2017-04-04
Participant Flow
Eligible patients had a histological or cytologic documented diagnosis of metastatic NSCLC, with and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 3. The study was initiated on November 7, 2008, and concluded with the last patient in December 2012.
Participant milestones
| Measure |
Arm 1: Prophylactic Treatment
Subjects (approximately 50) will be given minocycline (an antibiotic pill) 100mg orally to take for 4 weeks at the same time as starting their erlotinib to see if the rash can be prevented
minocycline: Arm 1: Subjects (approximately 50) will be given minocycline (an antibiotic pill) 100mg orally to take for 4 weeks at the same time as starting their erlotinib to see if the rash can be prevented. If rash occurs then subjects will be treated using a medicated lotion, (clindamycin 2% and hydrocortisone 1%,) to be applied to the rash and if the rash is more severe, minocycline may be continued for more than 4 weeks.

Arm 2: Reactive Treatment
Arm 2: Subjects (Approximately 50) will be treated for the rash caused by erlotinib when it develops and the treatment will be a medicated lotion, (clindamycin 2% and hydrocortisone 1%,), applied to the rash and if the rash is more severe, minocycline 100mg orally twice daily. Scalp lesions will be treated with a topical clindamycin 2 %, triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% solution.

Arm 3: No Treatment Unless Severe (Grade 3)
Arm 3: Subjects (Approximately 50) that develop the rash caused by erlotinib will only be treated if their rash becomes severe to see if it will go away itself. The treatment for severe rash will be medicated lotion, (clindamycin 2% and hydrocortisone 1%,), applied to the rash and minocycline 100mg orally twice daily. Scalp lesions will be treated with a topical clindamycin 2 %, triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% solution

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: From onset of rash until resolution, up to 4 weeks following progression, an average of 1 yearPopulation: Patients With Maximum Severity of Rash Grade 1, 2b: Arm 1 (n=36), Arm 2 (n=38), Arm 3 (n=27) Patients With Maximum Severity of Rash Grade 3: Arm 1 (n=6), Arm 2 (n=4), Arm 3 (n=14)
To investigate if the rash caused by erlotinib is self-limiting. A time variable will be defined to identify the duration from onset of rash until resolution. Resolution will be defined as resolution to severity Grade 1 for patients with rash of maximum severity grade \>1 and resolution to Grade 0 for patients with maximum rash severity = 1. For patients where resolution is not observed the time considered will be the maximum time from onset of rash until end of the study. The analyses will be performed using the following two sub-populations: subjects with maximum severity of rash of Grade 1, 2a and 2b will constitute one sub-population and Grade 3 will be considered the second sub-population. The comparisons will be performed primarily for Group 1 vs. Group 3 and Group 2 vs. Group 3 and secondly for Group 1 vs. Group 2.

Outcome measures
| Measure |
Arm 1: Prophylactic Treatment
n=42 Participants
Subjects (approximately 50) will be given minocycline (an antibiotic pill) 100mg orally to take for 4 weeks at the same time as starting their erlotinib to see if the rash can be prevented
minocycline: Arm 1: Subjects (approximately 50) will be given minocycline (an antibiotic pill) 100mg orally to take for 4 weeks at the same time as starting their erlotinib to see if the rash can be prevented. If rash occurs then subjects will be treated using a medicated lotion, (clindamycin 2% and hydrocortisone 1%,) to be applied to the rash and if the rash is more severe, minocycline may be continued for more than 4 weeks.
