THE SCOPE OF THE SKIN TOXICITY PROBLEM

• 132 adults who presented 2.5 years – 1 primary cancer type
– Treated with 1 molecularly targeted agent
• Outcome looked at standard billable costs to the patient for skin toxicity-related medications, clinic visits, laboratory and diagnostic testing, and therapeutic procedures
• The 132 patients had a median of 3 clinic visits for management of skin toxicities
• Median cost of $1920 per patient
• Sorafenib-related dermatologic adverse events were the most costly to manage– Median cost of $2509 per patient

• Effect on adherence, and on cancer therapy dosing
• A survey completed by 110 practicing US oncologists administering EGFR inhibitors demonstrated
– 76% hold treatment due to rash
– 60% reduced dose due to rash
– 32% discontinued therapy secondary to the rash
– 8% refer to a dermatologist

PREVENTION & COUNSELING
• Start in everyone
– Broad spectrum UVA/UVB SPF 30+ at all times
– Topical corticosteroid daily to face, chest upper back
– Bathe or shower in tepid water
– Apply bland emollient (ointment or cream)
• Consider in everyone*
– Minocycline or Doxycycline

“We propose that patients with a favorable gut microbiome (for example, high diversity and abundance of Ruminococcaceae and Faecalibacterium) have enhanced systemic and antitumor immune responses mediated by increased antigen presentation and improved effector T cell function in the periphery and the tumor microenvironment.”
Do we need to consider the effects of antibiotics on gut microbiome diversity and response to cancer therapy in GI
Oncology?

CLINICAL APPROACH TO THE ICI PATIENT WITH “RASH”
• Assess for signs of severe cutaneous adverse reaction (SCARs)
• Evaluate morphology, low threshold for biopsy
• Let the clinical exam and biopsy guide management
• Treat the toxicity in as targeted a way as possible
– Knock out the components of the immune reaction leading to the irAE
– Leave the rest of the immune system intact to respond to the malignancy
• Goal: Uncouple toxicity from therapeutic effect

STEROID SUMMARY
• While some debate remains about which irAEs are associated with response in which tumor types and patients, irAEs appear to be associated with response and survival benefit
• Multiple studies now suggest that steroids mitigate effect in at least some populations and that dose and timing is important
• Steroids should be used early and liberally in life-threatening toxicity and very judiciously in less severe toxicity
• Steroids should be AVOIDED when treating disorders in which steroids would not otherwise be indicated

HAND-FOOT SKIN REACTION
• Onset between days 2 and 24 (median 15) with scaling, swelling, redness then dryness and peeling
– Pain may be out of proportion to the appearance
• Tender hyperkeratotic lesions, with or without blisters, surrounding rim of erythema
• More pronounced on areas with increased pressure and friction
• Most common with multikinase inhibitors

HFSR: MY/DFCI APPROACH
• Prior to starting therapy
– Skin exam and activity assessment when possible
• Preferably involve a dermatologist
– Treat pre-existing conditions
• Fungal disease (athlete’s foot)
• Dermatitis
• Callosities
• Pumice/friction, etc NOT recommended after starting therapy

ANTICIPATORY GUIDANCE
• Dry skin care– Bland moisturizers
– Warm, not hot water
• 20% Urea cream BID
• Avoid repetitive tasks or vigorous exercise– Vaseline with gloves for hand
oriented tasks
– Lubricate feet like a marathoner in anticipation of activity
– Well fitting shoes and socks• Cotton is ok for everyday use,
but running socks* better handle moisture
• *Same story for scrotal irritation
95BID, twice a day

COTTON SOCKS?
• “RULE #1 - Keep the cotton socks out of the running shoes! Why? Cotton retains moisture and when you have moisture, heat, and friction in a running shoe you are more likely to get blisters, calluses, and hot spots. Also, cotton gets more abrasive when wet, again not good in a running shoe.”

SUMMARY
• Cytotoxic, targeted and immunotherapy regimens may result in specific and sometimes predictable dermatologic adverse events
• Recognition of specific toxicities brings clarity when agents are combined
• Preventative strategies and reactive management can help improve patient outcomes
• Dermatologists can be key members of the cancer patient care team

People come into my office looking for unconditional love or complaining that their spouse does not offer it. Now I can tell them
they already have it.
Their epidermis caresses them, contains them, bends anyway they like, and asks nothing in return. Maybe we hydrate it or protect it from the
sun, but that is hardly an equal partnership.
I will never take my skin for granted again.

EGFR INHIBITORS-INDUCED SKIN TOXICITY
• Acneiform, papulopustular rash
– cosmetically sensitive areas (↑ sebaceous glands), causes pain and pruritus, and may impair the patient’s quality of life and adherence to cancer therapies
• Xerosis (dry), pruritus and paronychia (nail infection)
• 80% incidence
– Men and age <70: ↑ risk of severe rash1
• Within first 2 weeks, up to 8 weeks
• Predictive factor for survival (HR 0.51; p<0.00001) and progression (HR 0.58; p<0.00001)2
– Patients with moderate or severe rash had an increased chance of response (35 vs 13%; RR 2.23, p<0.00001)

MANAGEMENT OF EGFR INHIBITOR CUTANEOUS TOXICITY
• Pruritus
– anti-histamines, aprepitant1, GABA agonists
• Rash2
– steroids (topical/systemic)
– antibiotics (topical/systemic)
– oral isotretinoin
• Prevention3
– tetracycline
– significantly lower incidence
grade 2-3 folliculitis
– better quality of life

MANAGEMENT OF CAPECITABINE CUTANEOUS TOXICITY
• Avoid friction/trauma
– protective gloves/socks
• Pain medications
– NSAIDs may delay onset and ↓ incidence
• Steroid creams (clobetasol, betamethasone)
– erythematous/painful areas
• Moisturizers
• Decrease dose or hold until improvement

REGORAFENIB-INDUCED SKIN TOXICITY
• 2 types of skin reactions– HFSR (localized)
• topical steroids and anesthetic/analgesic
• occurrence of grade 2
• reduce regorafenib dose to 120mg
• if re-occurrence of grade 2
• reduce regorafenib dose to 80mg
– Rash/desquamation (generalized)• typically maculopapular
• in CORRECT study1: 26% any grades – 6% grade ≧3
• in IMBlaze370 study2: 21% any grades – 3% grade ≧3
• Consider holding regorafenib dose for at least 7 days in patients with:• recurrent grade 2 HFSR• Grade ≧3 HFSR• recurrent grade 2 HFSR that does not improve within 7 days of dose reduction
• Avoid alcohol-based lotions, excessive drying of the skin, skin irritants, limit sun exposure

CASE• 62 year old female with iron-deficiency
anemia
• Colonoscopy
– Fungating mass in descending colon
– Bx: poorly-differentiated adenocarcinoma
– CEA: 19.4
• CT imaging
– Liver: multiple 2-4cm masses
• Bx: adenocarcinoma KRAS/NRAS/BRAF WT, pMMR/MSI-L
– Chest: multiple small nodules (<1cm)
• Started on FOLFOX with Panitumumab
– Flushing and ‘acne’ after 2 cycles
• After 4 cycles
QUESTIONS
1) After a treatment break what should we do to increase the chances that the patient gets full dose therapy at each cycle whilst maintaining the best QoL?
2) Should we have done anything differently to have prevented this?

PREVENTION AND CONSERVATIVE MANAGEMENT OF SKIN TOXICITIES
• Hydration
• Moisturizing hands and feet
• UVA/UVB, SPF 15+ sunscreen applied every 2 hours, more often if sweating
• Keep nails short, clean, and use sterile tools
• Avoid irritation with nail polish removal chemicals, hair waxing, or perfumed soaps
– Use gloves when doing dishes

ANTI-EGFR THERAPY ASSOCIATED SKIN TOXICITIES
• Variable presentation:
– Soreness, tightness, itchiness
– Pimple-like bumps on face and neck
– Cracks on skin and nail changes, red vessels seen on the skin
• Prevention:
– Topical steroids (hydrocortisone 2.5%)
– Oral antibiotics (doxycycline 100 mg BID x 6 weeks)
• Treatment
– Similar to prevention
– If grade 3: hold drug and consider oral steroids

PALMAR-PLANTAR ERYTHRODYSESTHESIAASSOCIATED WITH CHEMOTHERAPY (HAND FOOT SYNDROME)
• Initially presents as tingling in hands and feet, followed by painful erythema and swelling of hands and/or feet
• Prevention: topical urea cream 10% TID
• Treatment:
– High potency topical steroids (clobetasol, betamethasone)
– Salicylic acid 6% or ammonium lactate 12%
– If limiting activities of daily living (grade 2), hold drug
– Usually resolves within 4 weeks of drug discontinuation

CASE
• 36 year old female with sigmoid adenocarcinoma metastatic to liver (BRAF WT, RAS WT) who began treatment with FOLFOX + cetuximab
• After cycle 1 developed an acneiform rash over her face which was cosmetically distressing, causing her to skip every other treatment
QUESTIONS
1) After a treatment break what should we do to increase the chances that the patient gets full dose therapy at each cycle whilst maintaining the best QoL?
2) Should we have done anything differently to have prevented this?
