Radiation-induced dermatitis
​
Status: Formulation optimisation underway
-
Radiation-induced dermatitits is a very common complication of radiotherapy: 95% of treated patients experience dermatitis on radiation-exposed skin.
-
Symptoms commence within a few days or weeks after the start of radiotherapy, and range from redness (Grade 1) and swelling (Grade 2-3) to blisters and ulceration (Grade 3-4).
-
In severe cases, radiotherapy needs to be discontinued
-
The head & neck region, breast, chest wall and genital areas are particularly prone to dermatitis.
-
Our preliminary human data for NG12 demonstrates a substantial reduction in skin erythema following radiotherapy
