Filter by:Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is a term describing musculoskeletal conditions of the face, jaw and temporal regions. TMD is frequently associated with pain and/or dysfunction such as impaired jaw function, pain in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), muscles and/or related structures, and associated headaches. The aetiology of TMD is multifactorial and complex.
The main purpose and goal of this study is to find out if a particular course of radiotherapy for non-curable cancers, together with palliative care support, can help improve patients' quality of life.
Oral Mucositis (OM) consists in the painful inflammation and ulceration of the mucous membranes lining the digestive tract, lasting between 7 and 98 days; and starts as an acute inflammation of oral mucosa, tongue, and pharynx after RT exposure. Gel X spray is a product based on zinc gluconate. It could be helpful to achieve the prevention of Oral Mucositis and, in case of OM manifestation, the reduction of oral pain symptoms and to accelerate the healing process of oral mucositis ulcerations. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of the treatment with Gel X to reduce the incidence of oral mucositis, in comparison with Sodium Bicarbonate.
The purpose of this study is to examine the uses of a mobile health-based assessment and symptom monitoring platform.
This is a prospective, open-label, single arm, non-randomized study of RiMO-301 with hypofractionated radiation and a PD-1 Inhibitor in patients with unresectable, recurrent or metastatic head-neck cancer.
This study examines the feasibility and acceptability of a virtual tumor board for cancer and mental illness for patients with serious mental illness and a new cancer diagnosis. The study also examines the impact on patient care, psychiatric symptoms, and clinician self-efficacy in managing this population.
This study aims to determine whether dysbiosis actively contributes to HNSCC and if so, the underlying molecular mechanisms.
Recently developed hybrid machines (MRidian®-CE approval since 2016), consisting of a linear accelerator and an integrated low-field MRI, could allow better visualization of tumor and organs at risk during patient positioning and daily treatment finally repetitive adaptation of target volumes according to changes in patient weight and tumor anatomy during the radiotherapy course. These procedures would facilitate a high-precision treatment and help reduce dose exposure of critical structures.
9 participants are expected to be enrolled for this open,single-armed clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the recombinant herpes simplex virus Ⅰ, R130 in patients with relapsed/refractory head and neck cancer.
The goal of this clinical research study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of injecting certain cells that you produce in your bone marrow called mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into your salivary glands. Participants will have head and neck cancer that was treated with radiation therapy, and in this study will: - Undergo a collection of bone marrow using a needle; - Donate saliva; - Undergo a salivary gland ultrasound; and, - Complete questionnaires that ask about dry mouth Participants can expect to be in this study for up to 30 months.
