SHIELD: Sorafenib Hand-foot Syndrome Inhibition With Pre-Emptive Local Delivery of Topical Indomethacin

27 de abril de 2026 atualizado por: National Taiwan University Hospital
SHIELD is a single-center, open-label, single-arm prospective study designed to evaluate whether pre-emptive topical indomethacin can reduce sorafenib-associated hand-foot syndrome (HFS) in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Eligible adult patients with advanced HCC who are planned to initiate sorafenib will receive standard sorafenib treatment together with prophylactic 1% topical indomethacin gel applied to both hands twice daily for up to 12 weeks, or until development of HFS or discontinuation of sorafenib, whichever occurs first. The primary endpoint is the incidence of all-grade HFS during the first 12 weeks of sorafenib treatment. Secondary endpoints include grade 2 or higher HFS rate, grade 3 or higher HFS rate, mean sorafenib dose intensity during the first 12 weeks, adverse events of special interest, and duration of sorafenib treatment. The study will enroll 39 patients and compare outcomes with historical control data.

Descrição detalhada

This is a single-center, open-label, single-arm prospective study evaluating the prophylactic use of topical indomethacin for prevention of sorafenib-associated hand-foot syndrome (HFS) in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Sorafenib is an established systemic treatment option for advanced HCC, but HFS is a frequent toxicity that may reduce quality of life and interfere with treatment delivery. Historical studies have reported all-grade HFS rates of approximately 45% in patients treated with sorafenib.

Topical NSAIDs have shown preventive activity against chemotherapy-related HFS in prior studies. Based on this rationale, this study will investigate whether pre-emptive administration of 1% topical indomethacin gel can reduce the incidence of sorafenib-related HFS while avoiding the systemic adverse effects associated with oral NSAIDs.

Eligible adult patients with advanced HCC who are planned to start sorafenib will receive sorafenib at an initial dose of 400 mg orally twice daily, with subsequent dose modification according to routine clinical practice. Participants will also apply 1% topical indomethacin gel to the palmar and dorsal surfaces of both hands twice daily (total 4 g/day) for up to 12 weeks, or until development of HFS or discontinuation of sorafenib, whichever occurs first.

The primary endpoint is the incidence of all-grade HFS during the first 12 weeks of sorafenib treatment, defined according to NCI CTCAE version 5.0. Secondary endpoints include the incidence of grade 2 or higher HFS, incidence of grade 3 or higher HFS, mean sorafenib dose intensity during the first 12 weeks, adverse events of special interest, and sorafenib treatment duration. A total of 39 patients will be enrolled. Outcomes will be interpreted against historical control data.

Experimental: Experimental
Prophylactic topical indomethacin
Medicamento: Topical Indomethacin
The participant will be provided with 2 tubes (20 gm each) per week in the first 4 weeks (D1, 8, 15, 22), 4 tubes per 2 weeks at the second 4 weeks (D29, 43), and 4 tubes per 4 weeks for the third 4 weeks (D57) suffice for topical application over 12 weeks. The participant will apply 1 g (1 g = two fingertip units [FTU]: one FTU for one surface of one hand) of 1% topical indomethacin on the palmar and dorsal surface of each hand twice daily (= 4g/day) until discontinuation of sorafenib or 12 weeks or development of HFS, whichever is earlier. If the patient has adequate residual indomethacin gel at the visit, the prescribing amount may be reduced accordingly.
