Hoth Therapeutics Announces Positive Results for HT-001 in Treating EGFR Inhibitor-Associated Papulopustular Eruptions Findings to be Presented at the American Academy of Dermatology 2025 Annual Meeting
Hoth Therapeutics (NASDAQ: HOTH) has announced positive results for HT-001, their topical neurokinin 1 receptor antagonist, in treating EGFR inhibitor-associated skin conditions. A case study demonstrated remarkable efficacy where a 59-year-old metastatic breast cancer patient experienced complete resolution of skin lesions after one week of twice-daily HT-001 2% cream application, with no recurrence in the following three weeks.
The therapy works by blocking the pro-inflammatory SP-NK1R pathway. The company is currently conducting a Phase 2A clinical trial to evaluate HT-001's efficacy and safety in a broader patient population with varying severities of EGFR inhibitor-induced skin reactions.
These findings will be presented at the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) 2025 Annual Meeting from March 7-11, 2025, positioning HT-001 as a potential breakthrough therapy for EGFR inhibitor-induced dermatologic toxicities.
Hoth Therapeutics (NASDAQ: HOTH) ha annunciato risultati positivi per HT-001, il loro antagonista topico del recettore neurochinina 1, nel trattamento delle condizioni cutanee associate agli inibitori dell'EGFR. Uno studio di caso ha dimostrato un'efficacia notevole, dove una paziente di 59 anni affetta da cancro al seno metastatico ha sperimentato una completa risoluzione delle lesioni cutanee dopo una settimana di applicazione della crema HT-001 al 2% due volte al giorno, senza ricadute nelle tre settimane successive.
La terapia agisce bloccando il percorso pro-infiammatorio SP-NK1R. L'azienda sta attualmente conducendo un trial clinico di Fase 2A per valutare l'efficacia e la sicurezza di HT-001 in una popolazione di pazienti più ampia con diverse gravità delle reazioni cutanee indotte dagli inibitori dell'EGFR.
Questi risultati saranno presentati al Congresso Annuale dell'Accademia Americana di Dermatologia (AAD) 2025 dal 7 all'11 marzo 2025, posizionando HT-001 come una potenziale terapia innovativa per le tossicità dermatologiche indotte dagli inibitori dell'EGFR.

Insights
Hoth Therapeutics' HT-001 shows promising efficacy in treating EGFR inhibitor-associated skin toxicities - a significant unmet need in cancer supportive care. The case study involving a metastatic breast cancer patient demonstrated complete symptom resolution after only one week of treatment with no recurrence over the subsequent three weeks.
This finding is clinically meaningful as dermatologic toxicities from EGFR inhibitors often lead to therapy dose reductions, interruptions, or discontinuations, potentially compromising cancer treatment outcomes. HT-001's mechanism targeting the Substance P-NK1R inflammatory pathway addresses the underlying pathophysiology rather than just symptomatically treating these reactions.
The advancement to Phase 2A clinical trials represents a significant developmental milestone, moving beyond preclinical and early safety studies. However, investors should recognize that while this single case report is encouraging, comprehensive efficacy and safety data from the ongoing Phase 2A trial will be more definitive in establishing HT-001's therapeutic value.
For context, EGFR inhibitor-associated rashes affect 70-80% of patients receiving these targeted cancer therapies. Current management options are and often inadequate, potentially creating a substantial market opportunity if HT-001 maintains this efficacy profile in larger studies.
For Hoth Therapeutics (market cap:
HT-001 targets the substantial supportive care market in oncology - specifically the estimated 300,000+ patients annually who develop EGFR inhibitor-induced skin toxicities. This represents a focused but potentially lucrative commercial opportunity with competition from specifically-designed therapeutics.
The progression to Phase 2A trials demonstrates developmental momentum, though investors should note several critical value-inflection points remain before commercialization. The rapid efficacy signal (full symptom resolution within one week) could differentiate HT-001 in the market if replicated in larger trials.
From a competitive standpoint, current management approaches for these dermatologic toxicities primarily involve symptom management with topical steroids, antibiotics, and dose modifications - none specifically targeting the underlying NK1R pathway. This novel approach could potentially command premium pricing if approved.
While encouraging, investors should recognize that full Phase 2A results will be more determinative of HT-001's commercial potential than this single case study, and that several years of development likely remain before potential commercialization.
The data will be presented at the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) 2025 Annual Meeting, which takes place March 7-11, 2025, highlighting HT-001 as a potential breakthrough therapy for EGFR inhibitor-induced dermatologic toxicities.
The recent case study will be highlighted that demonstrated the efficacy of HT-001

A recent case study demonstrated the efficacy of HT-001
"These findings demonstrate the potential of HT-001 as a safe and effective therapy for EGFR inhibitor-associated skin toxicities," said Robb Knie, CEO at Hoth Therapeutics. "With a significant unmet need for long-term, well-tolerated treatment options, HT-001 could offer relief to cancer patients experiencing debilitating skin reactions."
HT-001 works by blocking the pro-inflammatory effects of the Substance P (SP)-NK1R pathway, a key mediator of neurogenic inflammation. Preclinical research has shown that HT-001 reduces inflammation and hair loss associated with EGFR inhibitor therapy. These latest clinical observations further support its potential role in dermatologic oncology.
Hoth Therapeutics is currently conducting a Phase 2A clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HT-001 in a broader patient population. The trial will assess the treatment's effectiveness across varying severities of EGFRi PPEs and explore its impact on other dermatologic manifestations induced by EGFR inhibitors.
