Filter by:A pilot study on efficacy of Lactobacillus CD2 lozenges in preventing oral mucositis (OM) by high-dose chemotherapy with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. To test whether the probiotic Lactobacillus brevis CD2 lozenges can reduce the incidence and severity of high-dose chemotherapy conditioning regimen induced OM in patients undergoing HSCT. Clinical activity will be defined as reduction in the incidence of chemotherapy induced OM in the patients undergoing HSCT.
To investigate the efficacy and safety of rebamipide liquid for chemoradiotherapy-induced oral mucositis in patients with head and neck cancer following administration of rebamipide and to determine the optimal dose of rebamipide.
Open-label, Phase II study of Stomatitis prevention with a steroid-based mouthwash in Post-menopausal women with ER+, HER2- Metastatic or Locally Advanced Breast Cancer
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on the severity of oral mucositis (OM) and inflammatory mediators (pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines, metalloproteinases and growth factors) levels in saliva and blood; furthermore, analyze the effect of LLLT in product modulation of oxidative stress and cell damage from the oral mucosa transplant patients.
Setting: Oral mucositis is a very common complication of cancer treatment, accounting, often at increased risk for infections and even the interruption of treatment, interfering with the prognosis of the disease. The low intensity laser therapy has been proposed as an alternative for the treatment and prevention of this side effect, with good results in terms of clinical and functional, speeding up the process of wound healing and reducing pain. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of using low power laser in the prevention of oral mucositis in patients with hematological cancer, undergoing chemotherapy for bone marrow transplantation. Methods: There will be a Clinical Trial Randomized, double-blind study to evaluate the effectiveness of using low power laser in the prevention of oral mucositis in patients with hematological cancer, undergoing chemotherapy for bone marrow transplantation. Participate in the study, patients who are in the condition mentioned above accepting participate and have aged over 18. Will be excluded from the study patients who have autoimmune disease, which present sensitivity to laser or who have already started treatment for oral mucositis prior to this study.The study variables are:-independent variable: whether or not the red laser of low power-dependent variables: oral mucositis, degree of mucositis, chemotherapy regimen, type of blood cancer. For determining the association between the independent variable and the dependent will be used chi-square tests of association (Pearson) and Fisher's exact test, if necessary. Will calculate the risk ratio (RR) as a measure of relative risk, with the confidence interval at 95% (IC95%).Also be calculated NNT (number needed to treat to obtain benefit) and NNH (number needed to harm getting). Will be adopted a significance level of 5%. The project was approved by the Ethics and Research iMIP. All patients will be appropriately informed about the objectives of the project and will only be included if they voluntarily agree to participate by signing the consent form. Keywords: laser, prevention and control; oral mucositis, bone marrow transplant.
RATIONALE: Polymerized (cross-linked) sucralfate malate paste (ProThelial) may be an effective single therapy approach for the management of chemoradiation mucositis, treating and preventing its occurrence in the oral cavity, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestine. PURPOSE: This observational multi-phase trial is studying how well polymerized (cross-linked) sucralfate malate paste (ProThelial) works to prevent and treat mucositis in adult patients who are to receive or have received chemo/radiation therapy that have caused or is anticipated to cause mucositis in the oral cavity, esophagus, stomach, small or large intestine. The Phase IV study addresses prevention and treatment in the oral cavity. The Phase I study addresses prevention and treatment in the esophagus, stomach, small and large intestine.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well mucoadhesive oral wound rinse works in preventing and treating stomatitis in patients with estrogen receptor (ER)- or progesterone receptor (PR)-positive metastatic or locally recurrent breast cancer that cannot be removed by surgery receiving everolimus. Mucoadhesive oral wound rinse may help prevent symptoms of stomatitis, or mouth sores, in patients receiving everolimus.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of SGX942 in patients receiving chemoradiation treatment for the treatment of head and neck cancer.
The purpose of this study is to: - evaluate the activity of SAMITAL in reducing the incidence of severe mucositis in head-and-neck cancer patients undergoing chemo-radiotherapy. - assess tolerability of SAMITAL and the impact on patients reported outcomes.
This study involves adults receiving radiation therapy for head and neck cancer and will test whether or not the study mouthrinse may lessen oral mucositis.
