About this study
Official title: Clinical Study on the Prevention and Treatment of Radiation Vaginitis With Triethanolamine Cream: An Open-label, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Study
The objective of this clinical trial is to understand whether triethanolamine cream can prevent and treat acute radiation vaginitis. It will also learn about the safety of triethanolamine cream. The main questions it aims to answer include:
Can triethanolamine cream reduce the incidence and severity of radiation vaginitis in cervical cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy?

What medical problems might participants encounter when using triethanolamine cream?
Researchers will compare triethanolamine cream with routine care to observe whether triethanolamine cream will reduce the incidence and severity of radiation vaginitis in cervical cancer patients receiving radiotherapy.
Participants will:
Daily vaginal administration of triethanolamine cream, vaginal opening application and routine care, or only routine care, from the first day of radiotherapy until 28 days after the end of radiotherapy.
Four examinations were conducted respectively from before radiotherapy to 90 days after its end.
Record their symptoms and conduct injury scoring.

- Vaginitis, Radiotherapy Induced Mucositis
- Being tested

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Trolamine (Biafine)Drug
Also called Observation Group
After radiotherapy every day, on the basis of regular medication and care, apply a standard dose of 4ml of Trolamine cream into the vagina using a uniform model vaginal delivery device (for patients with significant vaginal volume abnormalities, increase or decrease as appropriate, but the deviation should not exceed 30% of the standard dose), and fully apply it to the vaginal opening twice a day
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Biafine Group | Experimental | Starting from radiotherapy, in addition to routine care, triethanolamine cream should be applied vaginally twice a day, 4ml each time, until the afterloading is completed. Receives: Drug: Trolamine (Biafine) |
| Control group | No intervention | Routine care |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Incidence and severity of radiation vaginitis
The vaginal mucosa is routinely examined and scored by an independent gynecologist or radiologist (not related to the treatment implementing physician) using the acute-phase radiation vaginitis auxiliary grading template (i.e., based on the simplified VMMI) Classify the symptoms of radioactive vaginitis from mild to severe as "0 grade, 1 grade, 2 grade, 3 grade".
Measured: "First radiotherapy", "35 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy", "50 ± 3 days after the first radiotherapy", "140 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy"
Secondary outcomes (5)
Vaginal mucosal healing rate
The criteria for "healing" are defined as the simultaneous satisfaction of CTCAE5.0 grade ≤1, patient self-assessed VAS≤1 point (at rest), and no visible erosion or erosion area <5 mm ². In the visit records, all the established corresponding details should be marked with "√", and the content should be blind reviewed by two or more assessors to reduce the subjective judgment error of a single physician. If there is a disagreement in the assessment results, a third party shall arbitrate.
Measured: "First radiotherapy", "35 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy", "50 ± 3 days after the first radiotherapy", "140 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy"
EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ-CX24)
The full name of EORTC QLQ-CX24 is "European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Cervical Cancer Patient Quality of Life Questionnaire Module".Its high reliability, validity and international comparability make it a "gold standard" tool for assessing the quality of life of cervical cancer patients, optimizing treatment strategies, and conducting global multi-center studies.
A refined index system covering symptoms, physical appearance and sexual-reproductive functions has been provided. There are a total of 24 items, including 11 items for symptom experience, 3 items for physical appearance, 4 items for sexual/vaginal functions, 1 item each for lymphedema, peripheral neuropathy, menopause symptoms, sexual concerns, sexual life, and sexual enjoyment. All items use a 4-point Likert scale (1 = no - 4 = very much). The raw scores are first calculated, and then linear transformation formulas are used to convert them into a 0-100 scale.
Measured: "First radiotherapy", "35 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy", "50 ± 3 days after the first radiotherapy", "140 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy"
Vaginal pain score
The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is a 10 cm (100 mm) marked straight line used to enable subjects to convert subjective pain intensity into quantifiable continuous values. When evaluating vaginal pain/dyspareunia, VAS is recommended as a single-dimensional, highly sensitive and easily statistically processed tool. It has been widely used in research and clinical follow-up after vaginal surgery or radiotherapy, vulvar pain syndrome, endometria-related pelvic pain, etc.
Measured: "First radiotherapy", "35 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy", "50 ± 3 days after the first radiotherapy", "140 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy"
Effective vaginal length
The maximum depth that can be tolerated from the entrance to the dome (or stump) with a graduated expander/ruler.
Measured: "First radiotherapy", "35 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy", "50 ± 3 days after the first radiotherapy", "140 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy"
Microbiota detection
The changes of flora in the secretions were observed respectively before external irradiation treatment, at the end of the last brachytherapy, and 90 days after the end of the last brachytherapy.
Measured: "First radiotherapy", "35 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy", "50 ± 3 days after the first radiotherapy", "140 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy"

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing Trolamine (Biafine) in people with Vaginitis and Radiotherapy Induced Mucositis, run by Fujian Cancer Hospital.
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 6 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Incidence and severity of radiation vaginitis (time frame: "First radiotherapy", "35 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy", "50 ± 3 days after the first radiotherapy", "140 ± 7 days after the first radiotherapy"). 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 25 Mar 2026.
