  • Publication number: 20060275370
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods and compositions of treating or preventing epithelial lining tissue damage from dermatitis or mucositis induced by radiation exposure and/or chemotherapy, by applying to skin, mucosa or other tissues of the body an amount of a therapeutic composition which comprises a histone deacetylase inhibitor formulated with at least one pharmaceutically acceptable biocompatible polymer or carrier, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts in an amount sufficient to delay onset or decrease severity of the signs and symptoms of dermatitis and mucositis in cancer therapy. Such therapeutic compositions have the advantage of prolonged retention and sustained action of the histone deacetylase inhibitor in the skin, mucosa or other tissues of the body. The invention is also directed to treatment and prevention of gastrointestinal distress and cancer-related fatigue syndrome that are associated with mucositis in cancer therapy.
