APN201

"All patients receive APN201 and placebo at the same time. The irradiated region is divided vertically into two symmetric areas (left and right). One area is treated with APN201 (recombinant human superoxide dismutase (rhSOD) encapsulated in liposomal vesicles formulated as a hydrophilic gel; 1.6 mg rhSOD per mL), the other area is treated with placebo (empty liposomes formulated as a hydrophilic gel) in a double-blind fashion.~Study treatment (APN201 and placebo) starts on the day of initiation of radiation therapy and continues until the end of radiation therapy to the whole breast (25 or 28 daily fractions to a total dose of 50.0 Gy or 50.4 Gy, respectively). Study treatment is applied as a thin film on the irradiated area ≥10 minutes each day before radiation therapy (approximately 1 mL APN201 per 100 cm2 of the radiation field size and approximately 1 ml placebo per 100 cm2 of the radiation field size)."
