Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ALD518 in modifying the course of oral mucositis in subjects with head and neck cancer receiving concomitant chemotherapy and radiotherapy
The goal of this study is to gain new knowledge about genetic risk factors thta may affect the development of mucositis, the chemotherapy-induced sores in the mouth and esophagus following HSCT. The study seeks to understand if different forms of genes result in an increased risk of sores in the mouth and esophagus.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether an oral rinse composed of botanical extracts is effective in the prevention of severe inflammation of the lining of the oral cavity caused by chemotherapy and radiation therapy for head and neck cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Clonidine Lauriad® to treat chemoradiation therapy induced severe oral mucositis in patients with head and neck cancer.
Oral mucositis can be a significant problem for cancer patients. It is typically associated with pain and increased risk of infection and can lead to impaired nutritional status and inadequate hydration.it can be seen in the patient population receiving high-dose head and neck radiation therapy (85%-100%). Topical dexpanthenol acts like a moisturizer, improving stratum corneum hydration, reducing transepidermal water loss and maintaining skin softness and elasticity. The stimulation of epithelization, granulation and mitigation of itching were the most prominent effects of formulations containing dexpanthenol. The investigators suppose that dexpanthenol mouth wash may improve oral mucositis.
Study hypothesis: light therapy may prevent oral ulcers in bone marrow recipients. Methods: patients will be treated with either active light-emitting device or inactive light-emitting device. Daily treatment with light therapy will start at the beginning of the conditioning regimen and will last until day 21 post-transplant. Each daily treatment last about 5 minutes. Patients will be evaluated for oral mucositis and oral pain level on a weekly basis.
This randomized phase III trial is studying how well Caphosol rinse works in preventing mucositis in young patients undergoing autologous or donor stem cell transplant. Supersaturated calcium phosphate (Caphosol) rinse may be able to prevent mucositis, or mouth sores, in patients undergoing stem cell transplant.
The intention of the study is to study the effects of Ibuprofen, Diphenhydramine and Aluminium MgS in decreasing the signs of recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS)
The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence of stomatitis when treating with amifostine before radiation treatment.
This study is a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, two-arm study conducted in subjects receiving chemoradiation therapy for the treatment of head and neck cancer to assess the efficacy of MuGard. The study will evaluate the ability of MuGard to reduce the symptoms of oral mucositis. The study includes a treatment period of approximately 7 weeks depending on the subject's prescribed radiation plan. MuGard is a liquid that is classified as a medical device. It is a hydrated polymer system (oral hydrogel) and is intended for the management of oral mucositis/stomatitis. When gently distributed within the mouth, the mucoadhesive formulation results in the formation of a protective coating over the oral mucosa. Subjects undergoing chemotherapy with radiation for the treatment of head and neck cancer are at high risk of developing oral mucositis as an adverse side-effect of cancer treatment. MuGard was previously shown to reduce the incidence and severity of mucositis in head and neck cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy when compared with data from historical control groups. The purpose of this study is to perform a direct comparison of the effectiveness of MuGard with a control group.
