Filter by:The investigators will conduct a 2-arm 6-month randomized clinical controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of an oral Telehealth Intervention (THI) in preventing cancer-related oral complications, improving oral health maintenance and oral health related quality of life, and reducing systemic inflammation compared to Usual Care (UC) among unselected cancer survivors.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the efficacy of laser photobiomodulation in adult hematologic cancer patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The main questions it aims to answer are: • Is photobiomodulation with laser in the oral cavity, compared to standard care, effective in preventing oral mucositis and functional impairments in adult patients receiving HSCT? • What is the level of patient´s acceptability of photobiomodulation with laser in the oral cavity during HSCT? Participants once a day will receive photobiomodulation (diode laser device) in their oral cavity from the first day of transplantation conditioning until third day post-transplant. Researchers will compare with usual care to see if photobiomodulation helps preventing oral mucositis and functional impairment.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of lithium-containing mouthwash for prevention and treatment of oral mucositis and dysgeusia in patients undergoing radiotherapy for malignant head and neck tumors.
a three-arm head-to-head randomized clinical trial assessing two of the promising studied interventions, low-level diode laser and topical Chamomile, comparing them to each other's and to conventional therapy in the management of oral mucositis-induced chemotherapy.
The main aim of this study was to evaluate clinically the effect of a combination between oral vitamin D and oral zinc in comparison to conventional therapy in prevention of radiotherapy-induced oral mucositis in Assiut University Hospitals.
The goal of this study is to compare glutamine combined with thalidomide with glutamine alone in preventing radiation-induced oral mucositis. The aim of this study is to answer whether glutamine plus thalidomide could improve the median incidence time of grade 2 oral mucositis. Participants would be randomly divided into the two groups above mentioned.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of immunonutrion compared with standard nutrition in reducing oral mucositis in patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Approximately 60% and 90% of patients with head and neck (H&N) cancers receiving standard radiotherapy (RT) and chemoradiotherapy (chemo-RT) will develop oral mucositis respectively. Oral mucositis (OM) is one of the dose-limiting adverse events which can also lead to emotional and nutritional problems. Clinically, it is usually observed by the end of first week of RT (after 10 Gy) and reaches peak damage in 14-21 days or by the end of treatment. Healing then takes approximately 2 to 3 weeks after completion of RT. For the Chinese Medicine (CM) interventions, many studies have been reviewed on the efficacy of mouthwash or internal herbal decoction to OM. Although some positive results were observed, most of them were performed by applying different assessment tools and lack of quality of life (QOL) or self-reported symptoms assessment. In addition, the intervention time and follow-up period were usually insufficient (stopped at the end of RT), therefore they could not review the long-term efficacy of CM according to normal progression of OM and the safety of using CM. Therefore, we hope this pilot study can evaluate the efficacy and safety of CM in a strict protocol.
Oral mucositis is common among cancer patients receiving radiotherapy and chemotherapy. 80-90% of the patients are suffering from the mucositis pain; poor nutrition and even treatment discontinued. Some self-paid medications like glutamine has been used to prevent mucositis before and during radiotherapy/chemotherapy. Randomized controlled trials have shown that honey and propolis may be used for the management of mucositis. Honey demonstrates the most significant antibacterial effects; the green propolis has also been proved to comprise antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects. Bee products have been concerned as potential sources of natural antioxidants such as flavonoids, phenolic acids, and terpenoids. This study plan to conduct an RCT comparing the effectiveness of honey, honey and green propolis, and usual care in mucositis of cancer patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BALI association in the treatment of aphthous ulceration.
