PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the efficacy of methylene blue (MB) in reducing the severity of mucositis-related pain, measured by numeric rating scale (NRS), in cancer patients who underwent or are undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy. OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 4 groups. GROUP 1: Patients receive lower dose methylene blue orally (PO) to swish and spit for 5 minutes every 6 hours then receive standard of care therapy. GROUP 2: Patients receive medium dose methylene blue PO to swish and spit for 5 minutes every 6 hours then receive standard of care therapy. GROUP 3: Patients receive higher dose methylene blue PO to swish and spit for 5 minutes every 6 hours then receive standard of care therapy. GROUP 4: Patients receive standard of care therapy.
