EGFR Inhibitors Induced Skin Disorders Understanding and Treatment Algorithm

EGFR Inhibitors Induced Skin Disorders Overview

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that is frequently mutated or overexpressed in a large number of tumors such as carcinomas or glioblastoma. Inhibitors of EGFR activation have been successfully established for the therapy of some cancers and are more and more frequently being used as first or later-line therapies. Although the side effects induced by inhibitors of EGFR are less severe than those observed with classic cytotoxic chemotherapy and can usually be handled by outpatient care, they may still be a cause for dose reduction or discontinuation of treatment that can reduce the effectiveness of antitumor therapy.

EGFR Inhibitors Induced Skin Disorders Diagnosis

Diagnosing skin disorders induced by EGFR inhibitors involves a thorough evaluation by healthcare professionals, often oncologists or dermatologists. They conduct a comprehensive physical examination, scrutinizing the skin, nails, and hair for characteristic signs like acneiform rash, xerosis, pruritus, paronychia, or hair changes. Patient history, including cancer diagnosis and treatment details, is crucial to correlate symptom onset with EGFR inhibitor therapy. Differential diagnosis considers alternative causes like infections or pre-existing dermatological conditions. In uncertain cases, a skin biopsy may be warranted. Laboratory tests may be ordered to assess systemic issues.

Further details related to diagnosis will be provided in the report…

EGFR Inhibitors Induced Skin Disorders Treatment

Treating skin disorders triggered by EGFR inhibitors entails a multifaceted strategy, including topical remedies like emollients, corticosteroids, and antibiotics for rash, xerosis, and infections. Oral antibiotics and antihistamines may be prescribed for more severe cases. Systemic corticosteroids and temporary EGFR inhibitor dose adjustments might be necessary for severe reactions. Patients benefit from education on skincare and sun protection. Specialized care, including dermatologist consultation for severe cases or nail care, may be needed. A collaborative effort among oncologists, dermatologists, and support teams ensures comprehensive management, aiming to alleviate symptoms while optimizing cancer treatment outcomes. 

Further details related to treatment will be provided in the report…..

EGFR Inhibitors Induced Skin Disorders Epidemiology

The EGFR Inhibitors Induced Skin Disorders epidemiology chapter in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by the total incident cases of indications harboring EGFR mutation (NSCLC, Colorectal cancer, Pancreatic, Head and Neck cancer, Breast cancer), incident cases of EGFR mutation in respective indications, treatable cases by EGFR inhibitors, incident cases of EGFR inhibitors-induced skin disorders, in the 7MM covering the United States, EU4 (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain) and the United Kingdom, and Japan from 2020 to 2034.

• EGFR is altered in 3.22% of colorectal carcinoma patients with EGFR mutation present in 2.33% of all colorectal carcinoma patients.
• Nearly 20% of patients are affected with EGFR mutation in NSCLC. 
• In pancreatic ductal carcinoma, EGFR is overexpressed in 30–89% of the cases.   
• In 2023, there were more than 30,000 treatable incident cases of EGFR inhibitors in the United States.

Emerging Drugs

LUT014: Lutris Pharma  

LUT014 is a topical B-RAF inhibitor, first-in-class, small molecule. Lutris Pharma is conducting a Phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LUT014 in metastatic colorectal cancer patients with EGFR Inhibitors-induced acneiform lesions. The Phase I study demonstrated the first evidence of treatment effectiveness by reducing the severity of acneiform lesions and improving patient quality of life. Promising preliminary data from the Phase II study may point to a dose-response and the high dose success rate achieved demonstrates the efficacy of LUT014.

HT-001: Hoth Therapeutics 

It is a topical formulation being developed by Hoth Therapeutics and is currently under development to treat patients with mild to moderate rash and skin disorders associated with initial and repeat courses of tyrosine kinase inhibitor/epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor therapy. The Phase IIa CLEER clinical trial is currently underway to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HT-001 in patients with rash and skin disorders associated with EGFR inhibitor therapy. In January 2023, the US FDA accepted an IND application for HT-001 for the treatment of rash and skin disorders associated with EGFR inhibitor therapy.

Detailed emerging therapies assessment will be provided in the final report.

EGFR Inhibitors-Induced Skin Disorders Market Outlook

The treatment of EGFR inhibitor related skin reactions is not standardized and is based on local practice and mainly derived from personal, albeit extensive, experience. Currently, there is no approved therapy specific for anti-EGFR-induced skin diseases in the US, EU4 the UK, and Japan. The off-label therapeutic options used for anti-EGFR-induced skin diseases are sunscreen, emollients and soap substitutes, antibiotics, antihistamines, topical steroids, and cosmetics. In contrast to acne vulgaris, topical antibiotic treatment with erythromycin, metronidazole, or nadifloxacin twice daily is recommended for early-stage and low-grade papulopustular skin reactions. Skin moisturizer and urea- or polidocanol-containing lotions are used to soothe. The rise in the patient pool of EGFR Inhibitors-Induced Skin Disorders is due to a hike in access to EGFR inhibitors and an increase in the incidence of EGFR mutated cancer cases, the expected launch of emerging therapies will drive the EGFR inhibitors-induced skin disorders treatment market in the forecasted period (2024–2034).

Detailed market assessment will be provided in the final report.

Referring patients with EGFR Inhibitors-Induced Skin Disorders to a dermatologist specialist is common practice, but for patients with EGFR Inhibitors-Induced Skin Disorders, dermatologists may feel that their options are limited. These patients require frequent monitoring to watch for the development of EGFR Inhibitors-Induced Skin Disorders.

The United States drug pricing regime is complex given its multi-payer model. It is currently undergoing significant changes, with recent federal legislation, such as the Prescription Drug Pricing Reform provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act, significantly altering the pricing regime under certain federal programs. 

The US health care system includes both private and public health insurance coverage. Whether a drug product is covered, and at what price, is determined by each payer’s coverage, coding, and payment criteria for health insurance plans. The largest government-funded programs are Medicare and Medicaid. Private plans, which cover far more Americans than public plans, have more flexibility to make coverage and reimbursement determinations.
