Trial summary

Radiation induced oral mucositis which may result in reduced quality of life is commonly seen during radiotherapy, especially combined with chemotherapy. This study is a prospective, single center, and exploratory study. Two contour methods of oral mucosal will be used in this study. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Predictive Factor Analysis of Acute Radiation Oral Mucositis in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Patients Treated With Precise Radiotherapy Technique Combined Chemotherapy

Radiation induced oral mucositis which may result in reduced quality of life is commonly seen during radiotherapy, especially combined with chemotherapy. This study is a prospective, single center, and exploratory study. Two contour methods of oral mucosal will be used in this study. All detail information will be recorded prospectively. The aim of this study is to explore predictive factors of acute radiotherapy induced oral mucositis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients treated with new precise radiotherapy (intensity modulated radiotherapy or tomography radiotherapy) by using different dosimetric parameters and clinically relevant variables.

Read the detailed description

To prospectively identify the predictive value of different dosimetric parameters and assess the predictors of acute radiation oral mucositis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients treated with intensity modulated radiotherapy or tomography radiotherapy.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. the highest grade of oral mucositis

    Radiation Therapy Oncology Group/European Organization for research and treatment acute radiation morbidity scoring criteria. Grade 0: No change over baseline, Grade 1: Injection/ may experience mild pain not requiring analgesic, Grade 2: Patchy mucositis which may produce an inflammatory serosanguinitis discharge/ may experience moderate pain requiring analgesia, Grade 3: Confluent fibrinous mucositis/ may include severe pain requiring narcotic, Grade 4: Ulceration, hemorrhage or necrosis, Grade 5: death (Higher score equals to worse outcome).

    Measured: oral mucocitis will be checked every day during the date of initiation of radiation therapy until the date of completion of radiation therapy, the highest grade ≥ 3 define as severe oral mubocitis, assessed up to a month and a half

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, run by Zhejiang Cancer Hospital 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 2 inclusion and 5 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 27 Aug 2018. 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.

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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the highest grade of oral mucositis (time frame: oral mucocitis will be checked every day during the date of initiation of radiation therapy until the date of completion of radiation therapy, the highest grade ≥ 3 define as severe oral mubocitis, assessed up to a month and a half). 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 27 Aug 2018.
