Deep-sea Fish Oil for Prevention of Acute Radiation-induced Esophagitis
A Randomized Control Study of Deep-sea Fish Oil for Prevention of Acute Radiation-induced Esophagitis in Patients With Esophageal Cancer
Purpose:To observe and evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of deep-sea fish oil in preventing acute radiation-induced esophagitis (ARIE).
Methods and Materials:A total of 120 patients with esophageal cancer treated with radiotherapy were randomly assigned (1:1) to treatment or control group. In the treatment group, 1g deep-sea fish oil was oral administrated prophylactically twice a day,the control group was blank control. The clinical efficacy of deep-sea fish oil on prevention of ARIE was evaluated by comparing the differences in the occurrence time, the grade and incidence of ARIE. Additionally, the change in nutritional status was also investigated. Hemanalysis, liver function, kidney function changes, and adverse reactions were compared before and after treatment to evaluate the safety of deep-sea fish oil.

---|---|
Experimental: Preventive use of deep-sea fish oil
|
Starting from radiotherapy, the whole course of prophylactic oral deep-sea fish oil should be taken at the recommended dosage of 1g po bid according to the instructions (the administration method is to take it with the drug, remove the film on the drug surface, slowly swallow it in a supine position, and make the liquid fully contact with the esophageal mucosa).
If no acute radioactive esophagus was assessed during the course of treatment, the patient was administered orally until the end of radiotherapy.
If the patient developed radioactive esophagitis during the course of treatment, the relevant outcome measures were recorded and used as the endpoint event of the phase I study.
The end point for patients without acute radiation esophagitis was at the completion of radiation therapy.
|
Placebo Comparator: Preventive use of placebo
|
Take a capsule made of food oil that looks like deep-sea fish oil at a dose of 1g po bid.
Treatment is discontinued when patients develop acute radiation esophagitis.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
The duration from initiation of radiotherapy to the onset of acute radiation esophagitis
Time Frame: Approximately 2 months
|
Approximately 2 months
|
|
Severity of acute radiation esophagitis
Time Frame: Approximately 2 months
|
Using the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) grading method for radiation esophagitis, patients with acute radiation esophagitis are evaluated daily from the first day onwards.
Specifically, level 0: asymptomatic; Grade I: mild dysphagia or pain in swallowing, requiring topical or non-narcotic analgesia; Grade II: moderate dysphagia or swallowing pain, requiring narcotic analgesia; Grade III: severe dysphagia or dysphagia pain, accompanied by dehydration or weight loss greater than 15%, requiring a nasal feeding diet with intravenous fluids or high nutrients; Grade IV: complete obstruction, accompanied by ulceration, perforation, and fistula.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Pain degree
Time Frame: Approximately 2 months
|
For patients with acute radiation esophagitis in the two groups, the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) pain scoring method was used to evaluate the pain degree daily from the first day of acute radiation esophagitis, which was usually divided into the following criteria: 0 score: no pain 2; Scores 1-3: mild pain; 4-6 points: moderate pain; Score 7-10: Severe pain.
The NRS score is based on a 10-point scale of pain, and the patient makes a numerical score to let the doctor know the level and level of pain.
|
Approximately 2 months
|
The concentration of plasma C-reactive protein
Time Frame: Approximately 2 months
|
The concentrations of plasma C-reactive protein were measured at three-time points at the beginning of radiotherapy, completion of 10 fractionated radiotherapy, and completion of 20 fractionated radiotherapy.
|
Approximately 2 months
|
The concentration of plasma IL-6
Time Frame: Approximately 2 months
|
The concentrations of plasma IL-6 were measured at the beginning of radiotherapy, completion of 10 fractionated radiotherapy, and completion of 20 fractionated radiotherapy.
|
Approximately 2 months
