Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the preventive efficacy of topical EGF cream for dermatologic adverse events related to EGFR inhibitors
Detailed Description: Epidermal growth factor receptorEGFR is involved in cell proliferation and is overexpressed or abnormally activated in malignant tumors originating from the colon breast ovary pancreas and lung EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitorTKI gefitinib erlotinib and afatinib have been for the treatment of cancer associated with EGFR gene mutation In addition monoclonal antibodies to EGFR such as cetuximab and panitumumab have been used as a chemotherapy for rectal cancer without ras gene mutation and advanced head and neck cancer

The incidence of cutaneous toxicity of EGFR inhibitors is reported to be 75-80 Clinical features include acneform folliculitis xerosis paronychia and itching Of these about 10 of patients with Grade 3 or greater have a detrimental effect on quality of life and adherence to treatment resulting in impaired therapeutic results

There have been many attempts to prevent or treat such skin toxicity However there has been no scientifically proven treatment until now

There is a growing interest in the role of EGF emulsifiers in the treatment of skin adverse effects of EGFR inhibitors as a result of studies that improve acne significantly compared to placebo

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the preventive efficacy of EGF cream in the treatment of skin adverse effects in patients with malignant tumors treated with EGFR inhibitor TKI or monoclonal antibody
