EGFR inhibitors
• Two classes of EGFR inhibitors exist:

pertuzumab, afatinib, dacomitinib)
• Small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors (e.g. gefitinib, erlotinib, lapatinib,
canertinib)
• Wild-type EGFR is critical for homeostatic regulation in keratinocytes
and cutaneous adnexal cells.
Papulopustular eruptions:
• Most common and
characteristic
• Dose-dependent
• Folliculocentric papules
pustules crusting
erythematotelangiectatic changes
and PIH.
• Common sites: Head, neck,
chest and back
• M/M: sunscreen, topical
steroids, and topical or
systemic antibiotics, systemic
retinoids.
 Xerosis and fissures:
• Second most common
cutaneous toxicity
• Dryness and skin fragility of
extremities acral
fissuring and asteatotic
eczema
 Hair changes:
• Kinky, brittle, and slow
growing scalp hair, scarring
and non scarring alopecia.
• Trichomegaly, or thickening,
elongation, and curling of the
eyelashes and eyebrows.
• Hirsutism (rarely)
Mucosal changes:
• Mucositis, stomatitis, aphthous-like
ulcers of the oral and genital
mucosa, vulvovaginitis, balanitis,
and conjunctivitis.
Nail changes:
• Onycholysis, paronychia, pyogenic
granuloma-like lesions, and
changes in matrix pigmentation and
texture
Specific Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors
• Imatinib, dasatinib, ponatinib, bosutinib and nilotinib: Malignancies
driven by BCR-Abl, c-kit, and PDGF receptor aberrancies
• Facial edema and morbilliform rash
• Reversible dose-dependent hypopigmentation in darker-skinned
individuals due to imatinib.
• T/t: low sodium diets for edema
topical & oral corticosteroids for rash
Multikinase Inhibitors
• Sorafenib, Sunitinib, Pazopanib, Vandetanib, Regorafenib: used to treat
multiple solid tumors, including renal cell, colon, breast and hepatocellular
carcinomas.
• Hand foot skin reaction:
• Symmetric hyperkeratotic plaques
with serious inflammation over
sites of pressure/friction.
• Low-grade disease: emollients,
keratolytic agents, topical corticosteroids,
topical anesthetics, and antiseptic soaks
• High-grade disease: Dose reduction/stoppage.
• Hair changes:
• Brittle hair with kinking, depigmentation, and slow growth
• Alopecia
• Others:
• Splinter subungual hemorrhages, stomatitis, xerosis, inflammatory eruptions,
and reversible yellow discoloration of the skin (sunitinib).
• Keratoacanthoma and invasive squamous cell carcinoma(SCC).
RAS-REF-MEK-ERK Pathway Inhibitors
• The RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)
pathway: Responsible for cellular proliferation, survival, and
differentiation.
• Two categories of targeted therapies specific for this pathway:
• BRAF inhibitors (e.g., vemurafenib, encorafenib and dabrafenib)
• MEK inhibitors (e.g., trametinib, cobimetinib, Binimetinib).
 BRAF inhibitors:
• Non-malignant cutaneous adverse events:
• Non specific rash:
Maculopapular
Papulopustular
Grover disease like
Keratosis-pilaris like
• Others: HFSR, pruritus, hyperkeratosis, photosensitivity, alopecia,
panniculitis, xerosis, and paronychia
• Malignant cutaneous adverse events:
• Squamoproliferative lesions: ranges from verrucous keratoses to invasive
SCC.
• Melanocytic lesions:
• Can induce dynamic changes in existing melanocytic lesions.
• New eruptive lesions, including dysplastic nevi and BRAF wild type second primary
melanoma
MEK inhibitors:
• EGFR-inhibitor like toxicities: papulopustular eruption, xerosis, hair
and nail changes, and pruritus.
• Exanthematous morbilliform rash.
• No reports of secondary cutaneous malignancy.
