Trial Outcomes & Findings for Topical Dermaprazole for Radiation Dermatitis in Breast Cancer Patients (TOPAZ) (NCT NCT05269160)

NCT ID: NCT05269160

Last Updated: 2026-02-17

Results Overview

A DLT is defined as any of the following:1) Any \> Grade 2 skin toxicity outside the radiation field (Macules/ papules covering 10-30% of the area with or without symptoms of pruritus, burning, tightness); 2). Any \> Grade 2 radiation dermatitis (Moderate to brisk erythema; patchy moist desquamation, mostly confined to skin folds and creases; moderate edema) within the treatment field that is probably or definitely related to Dermaprazole. Dermatitis will be evaluated by a radiation oncologist on a weekly basis using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) V5.0 criteria. Patient reported quality of life will be evaluated using a validated survey instrument called SkinDex16.

Participant Flow

The study started with the phase I part to define the safety and maximum feasible dose of Dermaprazole(two dose levels: 1% and 2%). Three patients applied dose level of 1% and completed treatment and follow up. No more patients were enrolled.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: from the first day applying the Dermaprazole cream until 1 month after the subject has completed their last radiation treatment, up to 13 weeks

Population: Three patients completed the treatment with dermaprazole 1% and no DLT was observed. No more patients were enrolled. The study was terminated before identifing DLT.

0 Participants

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: at weekly during radiation treatment, up to 7 weeks

Population: Not applicable to report the result. Phase II part was not started and the study terminated.

Radiation dermatitis will be determined by the radiation oncologist and defined using NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE version 5) for dermatitis radiation. In particular, the individual components of radiation dermatitis will be recorded: erythema, desquamation, edema, bleeding, skin necrosis and skin ulceration.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: from the first day the subject applies the cream to the end of the 6 month follow up period

This measure reports the number of participants who experienced Grade 2 or higher acute radiation dermatitis, as defined by the maximum observed severity during the treatment period. In particular, the individual components of radiation dermatitis will be recorded: erythema, desquamation, edema, bleeding, skin necrosis and skin ulceration.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: from the first day the subject applies the cream to the end of the 6 month follow up period

Population: no grade 2 or higher acute radiation dematitis was observed

Median-occurrence of grade 2 or higher acute radiation dermatitis time on the Kaplan-Meier method is defined as the time between the first time of applying the cream and the time of occurrence of grade 2 or higher acute radiation dermatitis.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: from the first day the subject applies the cream to the end of the 6 month follow up period

Population: no grade 2 or higher acute radiation dematitis was observed

Median-healing time of grade 2 or higher acute radiation dermatitis developing time on the Kaplan-Meier method is defined from time to develop the grade 2 or higher acute radiation dermatitis after applying the cream to healing the event.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: at before and after Dermaprazole cream application at the CT simulation visit, weekly during radiation treatment up to 7 weeks, 1 and 6 month follow-up after completion of all radiation therapy

Patient reported quality of life will be evaluated using a validated survey instrument called SkinDex16 questionnaire for QOL. The Skindex-16 assessment tool is designed to capture patient-reported assessments of subjective adverse effects. It consists of a short 16-item assessment completed by the patient, with each item rated on a 7-point Likert scale (0=never bothered to 6=always bothered). The total raw scores are transformed to a 0 - 100 scale. The higher scores indicate greater impairment. For each patient, identifiy the highest total QOL score across all time points, and then calcuate the median of these individual peak scores across all patients.
