Interleukin-11 Can Prevent and Treat of Radioactive Oral Mucitis

August 10, 2020 updated by: Chen yuanyuan, Zhejiang Cancer Hospital

The Open and Multi-center Phase III Clinical Study of Interleukin-11 in the Prevention and Treatment of Radioactive Oral Mucitis

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, multicenter, and exploratory study. The aim of this study is to explore predictive factors of acute radiotherapy induced oral mucositis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients treated with radio-chemotherapy and reduce incidence of oral mucositis by using recombinant human interleukin -11.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

All nasopharyngeal patients received radical treatment including neo-adjuvant chemotherapy and concurrent chemo-radiotherapy. Oral pharyngeal swabs and stool specimen were collected 3times:before neo-adjuvant chemotherapy,before concurrent chemo-radiotherapy and concurrent chemo-radiotherapy finishied. Patients were randomly divided into two groups randomly. IL-11 was used in experience group and control group, saline.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 75 years (Adult, Older Adult)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incidence of severe acute radioactive oral mucitis
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 5mouth
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).
through study completion, an average of 5mouth

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
