NCT ID: NCT05018754 Completed - Clinical trials for Graft Vs Host Disease

Treatment of Oral Mucositis Using Platelet Rich Fibrin TREATMENT OF ORAL MUCOSITIS USING PRF

Start date: July 1, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Oral mucositis (OM) is an inflammatory mucosal demolition frequently observed during treatments for neoplastic diseases such as chemotherapy or radiation therapy. The side effects of these treat-ments often drastically reduce patients' quality of life. OM are the result of the systemic consequences of chemotherapy and radiotherapy which, due to their cytotoxic and local effects, lead to pain and severe ulceration with a consequent decrease in the quality of life of affected subjects. Plasma Rich in Fibrin is often used to enhance soft tissue wound healing and fight bacterial sepsis through the presence of leukocytes within it. Aim of the retrospective study was to evaluate efficacy and safety of topic use of platelet gel in clinical management of oral mucositis in order to improve life quality of patients.

NCT ID: NCT04870060 Completed - Clinical trials for Oral Mucositis (Ulcerative)

Ability of Curcumin to Decrease Cytokines Involved in Mucositis in the Autologous Transplant

Start date: October 6, 2010
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Mucositis is a very common complication in bone marrow transplant setting. It is a result of injury to the gut caused by high dose chemotherapy. Currently there are no universal protocols that have been accepted as a standard to prevent and treat mucositis in the transplant setting. Post transplant upto 80% of patients suffer from a severe mucositis. Proinflammatory cytokines play a major role in the development of mucositis. Interventions that decrease the levels of these cytokines may be beneficial in preventing mucositis. This study is aimed at evaluating the role of curcumin in reducing cytokine levels and the incidence and duration of mucositis in patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation.

NCT ID: NCT04493879 Completed - Clinical trials for Oral Mucositis (Ulcerative)

Efficacy of Bioptron Light Therapy (BLT) on Post Chemotherapy Oral Mucositis

Start date: June 10, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study aimed to study the effect of Bioptron light therapy (BLT) on oral mucositis after receiving chemotherapy in patients with head and neck cancer,Oral mucositis (OM) is a common and severe acute side-effect of many oncologic treatments, especially in patients treated for head and neck cancer. It affects quality of life and require supportive care and proper treatment plane. This study had been conducted on thirty cancer patients (head &neck) receiving chemotherapy & radiotherapy (males and females) with oral mucositis with ulceration and pain(grade 2 and more), their age ranged from 35 to 55 years, capable of understanding the study assessment method and willing to complete the current study, they were free from any immunodeficiency disorders or diseases that could impair the healing process and impact the results as diabetes mellitus. Patients were randomly allocated from patients from the National Cancer Institute, Cairo University. Group A (BLT group): This group consisted of 15 patients receiving BLT for about 10 minutes every day for thirty days in addition to routine oral mucositis medical care (Analgesics, anti-inflammatory treatment and antimicrobial treatment for any new mouth infections), Group B (Control group): This group consisted of 15 patients receiving daily routine oral mucositis medical care(Analgesics, anti-inflammatory treatment and antimicrobial treatment for any new mouth infections) for thirty days The methods of evaluation in the current study were the WHO oral mucositis scale (OMS) and the Common toxicity criteria scale (CTCS). At the same time, the treatment equipment was the polarized light therapy device Bioptron Compact III (PAG-860 manufactured in Switzerland) Assessment by WHO oral mucositis scale and (OMS) and (CTCS) were used before treatment and after treatment to measure improvement in oral mucositis. The results of WHO oral mucositis scale (OMS) and the Common toxicity criteria scale (CTCS) were assessed first at the beginning of the study and one month after the end of the study; calculation of mean, standard deviation, minimum and maximum for each group was done by descriptive statistics, means comparison between the two groups pre and post-application and within each group was made using The t-test. With a level of significance Alpha point of 0.05
