Filter by:The overall purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of the MuReva Phototherapy System with a light delivery mouthpiece to reduce the severity of oral mucositis (OM) in adult patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, oropharynx, tonsils and base of tongue receiving radiation therapy with or without concurrent chemotherapy.
In this prospective, randomised, controlled, open-label, Phase III, non-inferiority clinical trial trial patients with a diagnosis of myeloma who were undergoing autologous HSCT were randomised 1:1 to receive cryotherapy for 7 hours or 2 hours . Oral mucositis was evaluated prospectively.
This is a phase 3, open-label, multicenter, randomized controlled phase III clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ulinastatin, a kind of protease inhibitor, in the treatment of radiation-induced acute oral mucositis in localregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) patients treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy(CCRT). To Explore a new and efficient way to reduce the incidence and severity of radiation-induced acute oral mucositis.
This research is being done to evaluate whether or not the Oral Mucositis (OM) Pain App (a smartphone application) is a feasible and valid tool to assess pain from radiation sores (also referred to as "mucositis") when treating head and neck cancers with radiation. The mobile app will be designed to help people better understand the pain from the radiation sores.
RATIONALE: Polymerized (cross-linked) sucralfate malate paste (ProThelial) may be an effective single therapy approach for the management of chemoradiation mucositis, treating and preventing its occurrence in the oral cavity, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestine. PURPOSE: This observational multi-phase trial is studying how well polymerized (cross-linked) sucralfate malate paste (ProThelial) works to prevent and treat mucositis in adult patients who are to receive or have received chemo/radiation therapy that have caused or is anticipated to cause mucositis in the oral cavity, esophagus, stomach, small or large intestine. The Phase IV study addresses prevention and treatment in the oral cavity. The Phase I study addresses prevention and treatment in the esophagus, stomach, small and large intestine.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of SGX942 in patients receiving chemoradiation treatment for the treatment of head and neck cancer.
The purpose of the study is to assess in a randomized, double blind, controlled, multi-center, phase III study, the efficacy of low level diode laser (100 MW, 658 Nm), in the prevention and treatment of radiochemotherapy-induced mucositis for stage III and IV head and neck carcinomas.
This is a phase 2b, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 4-arm, adaptive-design trial, initially stratified by cisplatin regimen, and then randomized 1:1:1:1. The study will be conducted in subjects receiving ChemoRT for the treatment of squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) of the oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, or larynx. The study includes a treatment period of approximately 7 weeks, depending on the subject's prescribed radiation plan, and Week 1 and Week 4 post RT follow-up visits. It also includes a longer follow-up period of approximately 12 months to determine if there is an effect of SCV 07 on the tumor response to ChemoRT.
RATIONALE: Doxepin hydrochloride may be an effective treatment for oral mucositis pain in patients undergoing radiation therapy with or without chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying doxepin hydrochloride to see how well it works compared to placebo in treating oral mucositis pain in patients with head and neck cancer undergoing radiation therapy with or without chemotherapy.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. It is not yet known which regimen of combination chemotherapy given together with or without monoclonal antibodies is more effective in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying standard chemotherapy to see how well it works when given together with or without rituximab, and with or without nelarabine in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
