Radiation-induced Oesophagitis Clinical Trial
Official title:
Clinical Trial to Assess the Efficacy of Fixed Combination Product Tepilta® in the Treatment of Radiation-induced Oesophagitis Compared to Its Active Ingredients Oxetacaine and Antacids, and to Placebo
This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, therapeutic confirmatory multicentre trial with 4 parallel treatment groups. The design is adaptive group-sequential with two interim analyses, possible sample size re-estimation after the first or second interim analysis and drop-the-loser approach. The study design was primarily chosen to show superior efficacy of Tepilta® compared to the single components and to placebo. Evaluation of safety is a secondary objective.
Tepilta® Suspension is indicated for treatment of pain in the upper digestive system induced by radiation therapy, in particular for radiation-induced oesophagitis. ;
