Study to Investigate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Topical HT-001 for the Treatment of Skin Toxicities Associated With Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Inhibitors

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Adult patient (ie, ≥ 18 years of age at Screening/Baseline [V1]) prescribed anapproved EGFRI to treat cancer (indication within the approved labeling for theEGFRI).

2. Patient has developed a rash or symptoms of a rash (papular and/or pustulareruptions) or symptoms of a rash (cutaneous burning), as assessed by both CommonTerminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grading and ARIGA scales (severity

≤ 3) with overall involvement ≤ 30% BSA.

3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2.

4. Predicted life expectancy ≥ 3 months.

5. Patient is able and willing to comply with contraceptive requirements.

6. Patient must have the ability and willingness to attend the necessary visits (telehealth and in person).

7. Patient must be willing and able to provide written informed consent after thenature of the study has been explained and prior to the commencement of any studyprocedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patient has severe cutaneous toxicity (severity = 4 on the CTCAE grading and ARIGAscales) or cutaneous toxicity involvement that is > 30% BSA, or other severesystemic toxicity (severity > 3 on the CTCAE v5.0 scale) as a result of EGFRItherapy.

2. Patient has any underlying physical or psychological medical condition that, in theopinion of the Investigator, would make it unlikely that the patient would complywith the protocol or complete the study per protocol.

3. Patient has a history of other skin disorders (eg, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis,recurrent skin infections), or history of illness that, in the opinion of theInvestigator, would confound results of the study or pose unwarranted risk inadministering study drug to the patient.

4. Patient has abnormal laboratory values at Screening/Baseline (V1):

5. Absolute neutrophil count < 1000/mm3 and WBC count < 3000/mm3

6. Platelet count < 50,000/mm3

7. Aspartate transaminase (AST) > 2.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN)

8. Alanine transaminase (ALT) > 2.5 × ULN

9. Bilirubin > 1.5 × ULN

10. Creatinine > 1.5 × ULN

11. Patient has a prescribed cancer treatment plan that requires radiation treatment tothe head, neck, or upper trunk concurrent with EGFRI therapy or has previouslyreceived radiation therapy within 4 weeks prior to Screening/Baseline (V1).

12. Patient has received aprepitant or other neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist within 4weeks prior to Screening/Baseline (V1).

13. Patient has had prior treatment with an investigational drug within 4 weeks prior toScreening/Baseline (V1), or at least 8 half-lives of the drug, whichever is longer.

14. Patient has an active infection (eg, pneumonia) or any uncontrolled disease exceptfor the malignancy that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might confound theresult or the study or pose unwarranted risk in administering the study drug to thepatient.

15. Patient has received non-stable escalating doses of topical antibiotics, topicalsteroids, or other topical treatments within 14 days prior to Screening/Baseline (V1). Patients who have been on stable doses of topical antibiotics, topicalsteroids, or other topical treatments for 14 days or more are allowed to be enrolledand to stay on their current prescription. Reduction in dose due to improvement inEGFRI-related toxicities is allowed.

16. Patient has used non-stable escalating doses of systemic steroids within 14 daysprior to Screening/Baseline (V1) excluding low-dose systemic corticosteroids as partof standard of care for prevention or treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea andvomiting; acceptability of the steroid and dose is to be determined by the studyInvestigator. Patients who have been on a stable dose of systemic steroids for 14days or more are allowed to be enrolled and to stay on their current prescription.Reduction in dose due to improvement in EGFRI-related toxicities is allowed. Use ofsteroid inhalers and nasal corticosteroids is allowed.

17. Patient has received non-stable escalating dose treatment with a systemic antibioticwithin 14 days prior to Screening/Baseline (V1). Patients who have been on stabledoses of systemic antibiotics for 14 days or more are allowed to be enrolled and tostay on their current prescription. Reduction in dose due to improvement inEGFRI-related toxicities is allowed.

18. Patient has received concomitant treatment with pimozide, moderate to strongcytochrome p450 (CYP) 3A4 inhibitors (diltiazem, ketoconazole, itraconazole,nefazodone, troleandomycin, clarithromycin, ritonavir, nelfinavir), or strong CYP3A4inducers (rifampin, carbamazepine, phenytoin) within 30 days of Screening/Baseline (V1).

19. Patient has a history of hypersensitivity to aprepitant or any component of HT-001.

20. Patient is pregnant or lactating at Screening/Baseline (V1) or planning to becomepregnant (self or partner) at any time during the study, including the follow-upperiod.
