Active clinical trials for "Stomatitis"

Oral mucositis represents a major complication of cytotoxic chemotherapy among cancer in children. Low-power laser therapy (LPLT) has been used to reduce the incidence of oral mucositis in patients who are receiving high-dose chemotherapy. The aim of this study is to compare two preventives energies delivered of LPLT to oral mucosa in decreasing the severity of mucositis in children.

evaluate preventive and therapeutic effects of Rebamipide gargle on reducing incidence of oral mucositis in comparison with benzydamine HCL mouthwash.

Oral mucositis (OM) is an inflammatory mucosal demolition frequently observed during treatments for neoplastic diseases such as chemotherapy or radiation therapy. The side effects of these treat-ments often drastically reduce patients' quality of life. OM are the result of the systemic consequences of chemotherapy and radiotherapy which, due to their cytotoxic and local effects, lead to pain and severe ulceration with a consequent decrease in the quality of life of affected subjects. Plasma Rich in Fibrin is often used to enhance soft tissue wound healing and fight bacterial sepsis through the presence of leukocytes within it. Aim of the retrospective study was to evaluate efficacy and safety of topic use of platelet gel in clinical management of oral mucositis in order to improve life quality of patients.

This protocol describes a randomized, double-arm, parallel-group, open-label controlled study that aims to evaluate the efficacy of Chinese herbal medicine on head and neck cancer patients with oral mucositis toxicities and quality of life during radiotherapy.

Oral mucositis is a debilitating side effect for oncology patients and there is a clear need for new therapeutic options. The lozenges containing Lactobacillus brevis CD2 proved a potential new alternative for the prevention of grade III and IV mucositis. The main endpoint of this study is to verify if these lozenges taken 6 times a day may reduce the incidence of grade III and IV mucositis as well as increase the percentage of patients who will complete the radio-chemotherapy treatment.

The study will be a randomized double blind prospective placebo controlled clinical study and aims to determine the therapeutic efficacy of Probiotics in Oral Mucositis pathogenesis in patients undergoing head and neck radiotherapy.

The purpose of the phase 3, clinical study is to determine if GC4419 (avasopasem manganese) administered prior to intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) reduces the severity of radiation induced oral mucositis in patients who have been diagnosed with locally advanced, non-metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.

Oral mucositis (OM) is a major source of morbidity in patients undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) is an antioxidant, widely used as mucolytic agent or antidote of acetaminophen overdose hepatotoxicity. we intend to explore the safety and efficacy of NAC in the prevention of OM after high-dose chemotherapy and autologous HCT in a phase III, randomized, open label and multi-center study.

the main aim of this study is to clinically assess the effectiveness of topical chamomile oral gel in the prevention of chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis.

Oral mucositis is one of the most common debilitating forms of mucositis that arise from high dose chemotherapy and radiotherapy. It is reported that almost 75% patients undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) develop oral mucositis at different levels of severity. The objective of this prospective study was to assess the efficacy of the addition of supersaturated calcium phosphate oral spray and the addition of an extra soft tooth brush to the basic OH in addition to the currently existing oral hygiene protocol regimen (0.2% Chlorhexidine Gluconate + 3% Sodium Bicarbonate+ Nystatin 100000 U/ml) in reducing the severity of oral mucositis among patients receiving chemotherapy for HCT. 60 patients receiving chemotherapy for HCT were randomly allocated to four groups of 15 patients each The oral mucositis was recorded according to WHO criteria and the progression of the oral mucositis was monitored from the day of admission (day 1) to the day of discharge (day 28). The absolute neutrophil count, platelet counts and salivary flow rate of all patients was recorded.
