Purpose
80 - 90 % of the patients treated with anti-EGFR antibodies (panitumumab or cetuximab) experience skin toxicity, mostly acne like skin rash.
A standardized treatment of skin rash is neither established as standard arm for clinical trials nor as guideline for the treatment of skin toxicity in clinical practice. While an improvement of QoL has been demonstrated for panitumumab and cetuximab in comparison to best supportive care the data basis for patient related outcomes regarding skin toxicity deriving from randomized trials is still small.
Recent surveys among German oncologist revealed that physicians are reluctant to use oral antibiotics as preemptive treatment . Only 19 out of 110 oncologists stated that they are thinking about using preemptive treatment in patients with acne-like skin rash.
Thus, in the present trial two main questions will be addressed:
(i) Can preemptive treatment with oral doxycycline be replaced by a sequential skin treatment strategy (i.e. local treatment with erythromycin followed by doxycycline in case of inefficacy = development of acne) without compromising treatment efficacy of skin toxicity treatment? (ii) Comparison of general and skin related QoL between both treatment arms.

| Official Title: | Comparison of Two Preemptive Treatment Strategies of Panitumumab Mediated Skin Toxicity and Assessment of Quality of Life in Patients With Kras-wildtype Colorectal Cancer |
- Percentage of patients developing no skin toxicity ≥ grade 2 [ Time Frame: 8 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Percentage of patients developing no skin toxicity ≥ grade 2 at any time during their first 8-weeks of treatment with panitumumab.
- Quality of life [ Time Frame: 8 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Quality of life will be assessed by standardized skin-related (DLQI) and global quality of life (EORTC QLQ C30.
For correlation analyses between the different quality of life scores, the non-parametric test according to Spearman will preferably be applied.
- Assess Skin toxicity [ Time Frame: 8 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Assess different skin toxicity grading scales (i.e. NCI CTC v. 4.0; WoMo score; MESTT)
- Correlation between skin-related and global quality of life [ Time Frame: 8 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Description of correlation between skin-related and global quality of life using EORTC-QLQ C30 and SF-36.
- late skin toxicity [ Time Frame: from week 8 to 12 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Describe the development of late skin toxicity after 8 weeks
- Skin-toxicity related dose reductions of panitumumab [ Time Frame: 8 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Rate of skin-toxicity induced dose reductions (including withdrawal) of panitumumab
