Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 320510 0
Objective primary outcome: Change in available cetuximab binding sites on patient tumour as measure by EGF-Alexa 488 uptake in live ex-vivo biopsy as per assay published Joseph et al 2019 Journal of Investigative Dermatology DOI: doi:10.1016/j.jid.2018.06.190
Timepoint [1] 320510 0
Live ex-vivo tumours were assessed for EGF uptake within 30 minutes of removal from patient. Tumours were fixed overnight and processed the following day before confocal analysis was undertaken as described in Joseph et al 2019 10.1016/j.jid.2018.06.190. Thus assessment was usually completed within 3 days of biopsy.
Primary outcome [2] 320806 0
Safety: The Investigator and designated research nurse will monitor each Participant for adverse events during the study. The Investigator or designee will ask the Participant non-leading questions in an effort to detect adverse events. The investigator will exercise his or her medical and scientific judgement in deciding whether an abnormal laboratory finding or other abnormal assessment is clinically significant.Abnormal assessments (e.g. ECG, vital signs) that are judged by the investigator as clinically significant will be recorded as AEs or SAEs. Adverse events will be assessed for intensity, causality and expectedness. All AEs and SAEs will be followed until resolution, until the condition stabilises, until the event is otherwise explained.
