- Conditions
- Radiation-induced Dermatitis
- Interventions
- Biological: ST266
- Registration Number
- NCT01714973
- Lead Sponsor
- Noveome Biotherapeutics, formerly Stemnion
- Brief Summary
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ST266 in treating radiation burns of the skin in patients undergoing treatments for breast cancer and to compare ST266 treated burns with those treated with saline placebo controls.

Group Intervention Description ST266 inflamed ST266 Ten (10) patients will be randomized before the first radiation treatment to receive ST266 (4ml) and saline placebo (4ml), one to the medial segment and the other to the lateral segment. The area of the breast will be divided into two, roughly equal parts, medial and lateral. The randomization scheme will be equal in each of two cohorts. The second cohort will receive ST266 and saline placebo applied to inflamed skin (after inflammation is first noted) beginning immediately following the radiation treatment, to continue immediately following each of ten (10) consecutive radiation treatments. ST266 intact ST266 Ten (10) patients will be randomized before the first radiation treatment to receive ST266 (4ml) and saline placebo (4ml), one to the medial segment and the other to the lateral segment. The area of the breast will be divided into two, roughly equal parts, medial and lateral. The randomization scheme will be equal in each of two cohorts. The first cohort will receive ST266 and saline placebo applied to intact skin beginning immediately following the first radiation treatment, to continue immediately following each of ten (10) consecutive radiation treatments.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Adverse Events (AEs) and Significant Adverse Events (SAEs) Start of therapy through six week follow-up visit
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Skin inflammation start of therapy through six week follow-up visit Quality of Life (QOL)scaled responses start of therapy through one year follow-up Quality of Life (QOL) will be evaluated using a QOL Assessment (general to breast cancer patients receiving radiation therapy following tumor removal) and a QOL Supplement (specific to subjects receiving trial treatment). Both documents include subsets of questions, each with a different subscale. The assessments include both lifestyle QOL factors (sleep, activity, friends/family, general life enjoyment, etc.) and breast condition (pain, appearance, ect.). This secondary endpoint will focus on the QOL Supplement, comparing breast condition by treatment, noting changes in both the medial and lateral aspects breast including breast texture (thickening and hardness), pain, tenderness, shape, sensitivity, swelling, redness, itching, flaking skin, blistering and fluid leak. The patient will note, for each item, in which side of the breast they are experiencing the negative breast condition or if there is no difference.
