About this study

Official title: A Open,Randomized Phase II Trial Comparing Local Use of rhGM-CSF and Compound Vitamin B12 Solution to Compound Vitamin B12 Solution Alone Treating Chemoradiotherapy-induced Oral Mucositis in Patients With Primary Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

This is a open,randomized phase II trial comparing effectiveness and safety of local use of rhGM-CSF and Compound Vitamin B12 to Compound Vitamin B12 solution alone treating oral mucositis in primary nasopharyngeal cancer. The main end point is the incidence of grade II and less oral mucositis at the end of treatment.The hypothesis of the study is that the local use of rhGM-CSF and Compound Vitamin B12 can decrease the incidence of grade III and more oral mucositis at the end of treatment compared to local use of Compound Vitamin B12 alone.

  2. Cumulative incidence and time of grade III and more oral mucositis

    Using the criteria of NCI CTCAE v3.0

    Measured: 7 weeks

  3. Dysphagia

    Cumulative incidence and time of different grade,using NCI CTCAE v3.0

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. Tumor response to chemoradiotherapy

    Using the criteria of Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors1.1(RECIST1.1)

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing rhGM-CSF and Compound Vitamin B12 in people with Nasopharyngeal Cancers, run by Wei LUO at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Wei LUO, M.D. (+862087343483, luowei2@mail.sysu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The incidence of grade II and less oral mucositis at the end of treatment (time frame: 7 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Mar 2013.
