This study will test the safety and efficacy of three topical agents containing oat kernel flour to determine how well they relieve skin dryness and itching related to cancer therapies. Participants will receive a body wash, a body cream, and an anti-itch balm to use at home for 4-6 weeks.
Many patients undergoing cancer therapies experience skin reactions like dry skin, rash, redness, itchiness, and hyperpigmentation. Dry skin and itching are especially common for those undergoing chemotherapy and targeted treatments.
Skincare products containing Avena sativa (oat) kernel flour have a long history of tolerance and efficacy in treating various skin conditions involving pruritus (itching) and xerosis (dry skin), as Avena sativa (oat) kernel flour is known for its skin protectant properties and soothing effects on skin. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a regimen of three topical agents containing Avena sativa (oat) kernel flour for cancer patients experiencing mild to moderate pruritus and/or xerosis.
Participants will received the products at Baseline (Visit 1) and return to the clinical site at Week 5 +/- 1 week for Visit 2. In addition, questionnaires will be completed remotely between Baseline and Visit 2.

| Avena Sativa Skincare Regimen | Other | Regimen consisting of 3 topical agents containing Avena Sativa (oat) kernel flour: a body wash (type = cosmetic), a body cream (type = cosmetic), and an anti-itch balm (type = OTC monograph drug with 0.5% Pramoxine HCl) |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Mean Change from Baseline to Visit 2 in CTCAE Grading of Xerosis | The investigator will evaluate subjects for overall xerosis (skin dryness) using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grading scale. For xerosis, the scale ranges from 1 (dryness covering less 10% of body surface area and no associated erythema or pruritus) to 3 (dryness covering greater than 30% of body surface area and associated with itching; limits daily self care activities of daily living). A "0" grade will be used to document subjects with no presence of the CTCAE skin adverse event symptoms for xerosis. Baseline will be compared to the subjects' final visit (Week 5 +/- 1 week). | Baseline to Week 5 +/- 1 week |
| Mean Change from Baseline to Visit 2 in CTCAE Grading of Pruritus | The investigator will evaluate subjects for overall pruritus (skin itching) using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grading scale. For pruritus, the scale ranges from 1 (Mild or localized; topical intervention indicated) to 3 (widespread and constant itching; limits daily self-care activities or sleep). A "0" grade will be used to document subjects with no presence of the CTCAE skin adverse event symptoms for pruritus. Baseline will be compared to the subjects' final visit (Week 5 +/- 1 week). | Baseline to Week 5 +/- 1 week |
| Mean Change from Baseline to Visit 2 in Overall Xerosis Grading | The investigator will evaluate subjects for overall xerosis (skin dryness) using a 0 (none) to 3 (severe) scale. Baseline will be compared to the subjects' final visit (Week 5 +/- 1 week). | Baseline to Week 5 +/- 1 week |
| Mean Change from Baseline to Visit 2 in Overall Pruritus Grading | The investigator will question subjects for overall pruritus (skin itching) using a 0 (none) to 3 (severe) scale. Baseline will be compared to the subjects' final visit (Week 5 +/- 1 week). | Baseline to Week 5 +/- 1 week |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Frequency Distribution for Overall Tolerance at Visit 2 - Subject Rating | The subject will rate how well he/she tolerated the study regimen using the following choices: Well tolerated, tolerated, or not tolerated. | Week 5 +/- 1 week |
| Frequency Distribution for Overall Tolerance at Visit 2 - Investigator Rating |

The question asks subjects to rate the severity of their dry skin at its worst over the last 7 days from None to Very Severe on a 5-point scale. Baseline will be compared to the subjects' final visit (Week 5 +/- 1 week). | Baseline to Week 5 +/- 1 week |
| Mean Change from Baseline to Visit 2 in PRO-CTCAE Itching | The Patient-Reported Outcomes version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (PRO-CTCAE) will be completed for Itching. The question asks subjects to rate the severity of their itchy skin at its worst over the last 7 days from None to Very Severe on a 5-point scale.
