This ongoing supportive care trial is listed on the National Cancer Institute Clinical Trials website (www.cancer.gov). Paul Miller, President of MPM Medical, stated, "EGFR inhibitors form a group of drugs, sold by several pharmaceutical companies, which are effective in the treatment of cancer. However, after a few weeks of use, an acne-like rash often appears on the face, neck, back, hands, and/or legs resulting in severe pain and itching for the patient. We know of no other evidence-based topical applications reported in the scientific literature shown to help manage rash symptoms caused by EGFR drugs."
