This is an interventional supportive care trial for Alopecia focused on measuring Alopecia, Hair, Chemotherapy, Cancer

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)FemaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult female, age ≥ 18 years.
  • Patient with cancer, requiring one of the following pre-specified chemotherapy regimen according to local guidelines: weekly paclitaxel, weekly docetaxel, eribuline or associationof weekly paclitaxel/docetaxel with carboplatine (association of targeted therapies not influencing significantly the risk of alopecia is allowed, i.e. trastuzumab, pertuzumab or bevacizumab).
  • Healthy hair (no current alopecia or scalp disease treatment).
  • Life expectancy ≥ 6 months.
  • Able to use the study treatment in compliance with the protocol.
  • Physical and psychological ability to participate.
  • Negative serum pregnancy test within 14 days prior to randomization in premenopausal women with childbearing potential.
  • Patients must agree to not shave their head (minimum ≥ 1 cm).
  • Signed and dated informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Other ongoing anti-neoplastic therapy or other investigational drug with potential effect on hair growth.
  • Patients treated with proteasome inhibitors, i.e. bortezomib.
  • Prior radiotherapy to the scalp with residual alopecia.
  • Known allergy or hypersensitivity to some components of CG 428 cutaneous solution (including allium cepa (onion), citrus, caffeine, theobromine).
  • Pre-existing alopecia or significant scalp disease, which may alter study treatment administration or absorption.
  • Concomitant use of cold cap or any other anti-hair loss treatment.
  • Hair transplants.
