NCT02816515

Brief Summary

This is a 3-week, non-interventional, observational study of patients undergoing chemotherapy (sutent) designed as a three-arm parallel study. In this study, the efficacy of Ectoin containing mouthwash given prophylactically for the prevention of mucositis in patients before radio- and/or chemotherapy; as well as during radio- and/or chemotherapy for patients with mucositis compared to standard treatment should be investigated. The study doesn't intervene with routine treatment strategy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (7)

  • Change in severity of oral mucositis as assessed by a visual examination and asking the patient about pain and discomfort

    A trained clinical member of the team scores the degree of oral mucositis, in accordance to the World Health Organization (WHO) mucositis scale as follow: grade 0, no signs or symptoms; grade 1, oral soreness and erythema; grade 2, oral erythema, ulcers and solid diet tolerated; grade 3, oral ulcers and liquid diet only; grade 4, oral alimentation impossible

    Visit 1(day 0), Visit 2(after 7 days), Visit 3 (after 14 days) and Visit 4 (after 21 days)

  • Tolerability assessment of Ectoin Mouth Wash by using a subsequent patient questionnaire in the prevention and suppression of the severity of oral mucositis induced by radio- and/or chemotherapy.

    day 21

  • Change in evaluation of pain on swallowing by using a patient-reported oral mucositis experience questionaire

    A patient-reported oral mucositis symptom score scale will be assessed to determine the severity of the symptom pain on swallowing over time on a 4-category scale ranging from 1 (none) to 4 (severe).

    Visit 1(day 0), Visit 2(after 7 days), Visit 3 (after 14 days) and Visit 4 (after 21 days)

  • Change in evaluation of dry mucosa

    A patient-reported oral mucositis symptom score scale will be assessed to determine the severity of the symptom dry mucosa over time on a 4-category scale ranging from 1 (none) to 4 (severe).

    Visit 1(day 0), Visit 2(after 7 days), Visit 3 (after 14 days) and Visit 4 (after 21 days)

  • Change in decreased saliva release

    A patient-reported oral mucositis symptom score scale will be assessed to determine the severity of the symptom decreased saliva release over time on a 4-category scale ranging from 1 (none) to 4 (severe).

    Visit 1(day 0), Visit 2(after 7 days), Visit 3 (after 14 days) and Visit 4 (after 21 days)

  • Change in Irritation of mucosa

    A patient-reported oral mucositis symptom score scale will be assessed to determine the severity of the symptom irritation of mucosa over time on a 4-category scale ranging from 1 (none) to 4 (severe).

    Visit 1(day 0), Visit 2(after 7 days), Visit 3 (after 14 days) and Visit 4 (after 21 days)

  • Change in swelling

    A patient-reported oral mucositis symptom score scale will be assessed to determine the severity of the symptom swelling over time on a 4-category scale ranging from 1 (none) to 4 (severe).

    Visit 1(day 0), Visit 2(after 7 days), Visit 3 (after 14 days) and Visit 4 (after 21 days)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by the Suspect Adverse Reaction Report Form (CIOMS Form I).

    within 21 days after starting chemotherapy

Study Arms (3)

Ectoin® mouth wash

The treatment will be started on the first day of radio- and/or chemotherapy, before development of mucositis

Ectoin mouth wash

The treatment will be started after oral mucositis development in patients receiving radio- and/or chemotherapy

Supersaturated electrolyte mouth rinse

The treatment will be started after oral mucositis development in patients receiving radio and/or chemotherapy
