NCT03518489

Brief Summary

The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy of lappaconitine adhesive patch in alleviation radiation induced mucositis pain and the improvements in QOL of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma . To determine if lappaconitine administered prior to radiation therapy reduces the severity of radiation induced oral mucositis pain in patients who have been diagnosed with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from Baseline Numeric Rating Scale for Pain(NRS scale) at 7 weeks

    The pain caused by oral mucositis for all participants was assessed according to Numeric Rating Scale (NRS scale), by which a respondent selects a whole number (0-10 integers) that best reflects the intensity of their pain. And an 11-point scale where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates the worst imaginable pain. The scale for each patient was recorded.

    The NRS scale will be assessed weekly during concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for 7 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Incidence of Severe Acute Oral Mucositis (Grade of CTCAE ≥ 2)

    The WHO score will be assessed weekly during concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for 7 weeks.

  • Change from Baseline Quality of Life at 7 weeks

    The EORTC QLQ-C30 shoule be completed weekly during concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for 7 weeks.

  • Change from Baseline Karnofsky Performance Status Scale at 7 weeks

    The KPS Scale will be recoreded weekly during concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for 7 weeks

  • The Adverse events Related to lappaconitine

    The Adverse events Related to lappaconitinewill be recoreded weekly during concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for 7 weeks.
