NCT ID: NCT06390176 Recruiting - Oral Mucositis Clinical Trials

Lactobacillus Rhamnosus GG Alleviates Oral Mucositis in Patients Undergoing Radiotherapy

Start date: November 10, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Radiation therapy is a common treatment modality in the management of head and neck malignancies. However, head and neck tumors often have some adverse reactions when receiving radiation therapy, such as dry mouth, change of taste, oral mucositis, etc. Among them, the incidence of oral mucositis is more than 90%, and the incidence of oral mucositis of degree 3 or more than degree 3 is more than 50%. Severe oral mucositis seriously affects the quality of survival of patients. Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) is a type of lactic acid bacterium, which is an important component of the microbiota in many parts of the human body. Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) is a lactic acid bacterium found in the human body, extensively researched for its probiotic properties. It has been tested in clinical trials for preventing and treating oral mucosal reactions during intensified radiotherapy for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. LGG adheres well to epithelial layers, produces a protective biofilm, and modulates immune responses. It shows promise in reducing radiation-induced oral mucositis and can be safely used in infant formula. Additionally, a daily dosage of 3×10^9 CFU of LGG has been effective in treating irritable bowel syndrome without adverse effects

NCT ID: NCT06267417 Recruiting - Oral Mucositis Clinical Trials

Laser Therapy Effect as Preventive Measure for Oral Mucositis in Children With Hematological Malignancies

Start date: April 10, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introduction: Among the most drastic complications of chemotherapy is oral mucositis(OM). It is a painful inflammatory, often ulcerative condition and may increase risk for systemic infections leading to prolonged hospital stays and interruptions of treatment protocol. Many treatment modalities have been introduced for the prevention and treatment of oral mucositis , of which low level laser therapy(LLLT) is gaining popularity. The use of LLLT as a prophylactic treatment for chemotherapy induced oral mucositis in pediatric cancer patients is still lacking robust evidence. Also, the parameters used have not been optimized and no standard method has yet been established. Based on this point, this study will compare photobiomodulation to the conventional preventive program of oral mucositis applied in 57357 children's cancer hospital foundation to determine which will be optimal for the prophylaxis of chemotherapy-induced OM. Aim: To assess the effectiveness of low level laser therapy in the prophylaxis of oral mucositis in pediatric patients diagnosed with Hematological cancers. Methods: This study is a randomized, prospective, double-blinded trial that will include acute Myeloid leukemia patients admitted to receive chemotherapy cycle between the age of 3 and 18years. These patients will be randomized into two groups: group 1 will receive low level laser therapy and group 2 will receive mock treatment. Patient will be followed to asses the development of oral mucositis on prespecified time points.

Start date: August 14, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this observational study is to apply the CNN-based DL method to extract the three-dimensional spatial information of IMRT dose distribution to predict the occurrence probability of serious radiotherapy and chemotherapy induced oral mucositis(SRCOM), and compare with a model based on dosimetry, NTCP or doseomics to improve the prediction accuracy of SRCOM, thus guiding the clinical planning design, reducing the occurrence probability of OM, and may have the potential value of preventing serious complications and improving the quality of life in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

NCT ID: NCT06016400 Recruiting - Oral Mucositis Clinical Trials

Using Vitamin D to Reduce Oral Mucosal Inflammation in Chemotherapy Patients With Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Start date: June 14, 2021
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Oral squamous cell carcinoma is the most common malignant tumor of the oral and maxillofacial region. Currently, surgery is the main method of comprehensive treatment. TPF (paclitaxel, cisplatin, and fluorouracil) chemotherapy regimen is one of the important methods for the treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma. Adjuvant chemotherapy before and after surgery can significantly improve the therapeutic effect of oral cancer patients. Oral mucositis (OM) is a common side effect during chemotherapy, which seriously affects the quality of life of chemotherapy patients and may lead to the termination of chemotherapy. Prevention and treatment of oral mucositis is still an urgent clinical problem. Investigators' previous studies have found that vitamin D can significantly inhibit the proliferation, migration, invasion and metastasis of oral squamous cell carcinoma cells, and vitamin D can protect normal oral mucosal tissue by inhibiting pyroptosis caused by platinum-based chemotherapy drugs. Based on the previous basic research, this project intends to conduct a single-center, prospective, clinical randomized controlled study on the clinical efficacy of vitamin D in reducing oral mucosal inflammation in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma undergoing TPF chemotherapy, in order to provide evidence-based medical evidence for the clinical use of vitamin D in reducing oral mucosal inflammation in patients with oral cancer chemotherapy. The results of this study are expected to serve as guidelines to guide clinical practice.

NCT ID: NCT05871333 Recruiting - Colorectal Cancer Clinical Trials

Effect of Losartan on the Incidence and Severity of Chemotherapy-Induced Mucositis in Gastrointestinal Cancer Patients

Start date: July 17, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Mucositis is a common and clinically significant side effect of both anticancer chemotherapy and radiation therapy that can affect any portion of the gastrointestinal tract. Not only associated with an adverse symptom profile, but also it may limit patients' ability to tolerate treatment if not adequately prevented and managed. Moreover, it may be associated with secondary local and systemic infection and poor health outcomes, and generates additional use of healthcare resources resulting in additional costs. Based on study of 38 patients of mean age sixty-one years old diagnosed with colorectal carcinoma were included to evaluate gastrointestinal adverse effect with different schedules of FOLFOX. Incidence of oral mucositis with FOLFOX-4 Is 76%, FOLFOX-6 is 62%, mFOLFOX-6 is 79% and FOLFOX-7 is 93% Chemotherapy-induced mucositis is commonly described as a five-phase sequence: initiation (0-2 days),upregulation and activation of messengers (2-3 days), signal amplification (2-5 days), ulceration with inflammation (5-14 days) and healing (14-21 days) According to the model introduced by some studies the primary inducer involved in unleashing mucosal injury upon chemotherapy is the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to tissue inflammation and mucositis induction. Inflammatory signaling pathways are upregulated during high reactive oxygen species states which further contribute to cytotoxicity. leading to the third step in the oral mucositis pathway. In this inflammatory phase, cytokines including Tissue Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-α), prostaglandins, Nuclear factor Kappa β (NF-кβ), and interleukin (IL) 1β are released. The cytotoxic effects of chemotherapy, inflammation, and reactive oxygen species-mediated DNA damage result in gradual apoptosis of mucosal epithelial cells. Ulcerative sites become relatively neutropenic which predisposes them to bacterial and yeast infections. These bacterial toxins further simulate the underlying inflammatory state through release of additional cytokines. It is necessary to emphasize that oral mucositis is frequently documented only in its advanced phases owing to the requirements for clinical therapy and assistance. Therefore, the search for new active ingredients that could be used in the prevention (and even treatment) of oral and intestinal mucositis is of utmost importance.
