Evaluation of Two Methods of Administration of Photobiomodulation in the Context of the Prevention and Treatment of Mucositis Induced by Radiotherapy, During the Treatment of Head and Neck Cancers — RADIO-PBM

Head and Neck Neoplasms Clinical Trial

Official title:
Pilot Observational Study of Transcutaneous and Intraoral Photobiomodulation in the Prevention and Treatment of Radiomucositis in Head and Neck Cancers Treated by Radiotherapy - RADIO-PBM Trial

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this feasibility, prospective, single-center trial is to compare an intra-oral Photobiomodulation (PBM) via the Caremin650TM device (NeoMedLight) and a transcutaneous PBM via the ATP 38® device (Swiss Bio Innov) in patients treated with radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy for cancer of the oropharynx or oral cavity. PBM session will be carried out first at the rate of two sessions per week for preventive purposes, and then, in case of occurence of grade 1 mucositis, three sessions per week with curative purpose.

Clinical Trial Description

Oral mucositis (OM) is defined as damage to the mucosa of the oral cavity; it can be due to chemotherapy or radiotherapy. The incidence of OM is 59 to 100% according to studies in patients with oral cavity or oropharyngeal cancer receiving radiotherapy. Clinically, OM is characterized by erythematous changes in the mucosa, which can progress to oral ulcerations. It can significantly alter the quality of life, the ability to eat, cause weight loss in patients and interfere with the proper realization of anti-tumoral treatment. Additionally, OM may increase the risk of bacteremia and sepsis in immunocompromised patients. So far, effective management strategies for OM and associated pain are still insufficient. A wide variety of topical and oral agents are available, but effectiveness is still lacking. Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy involves the application of visible or infrared light produced by laser diodes or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to stimulate wound healing, reduce inflammation, and decrease pain. PBM can be performed in two main ways: intraoral and transcutaneous. Intraoral PBM involves applying red or near-infrared light directly in contact with the oral mucosa, while transcutaneous PBM involves the application of infrared radiation to the skin. Both techniques have shown their effectiveness. Numerous trials have evaluated the impact of PBM in radiomucositis but its use in clinical practice is to date not widespread and heterogeneous. ;
