Brief Summary

Oral mucositis (OM) is a major source of morbidity in patients undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) is an antioxidant, widely used as mucolytic agent or antidote of acetaminophen overdose hepatotoxicity. we intend to explore the safety and efficacy of NAC in the prevention of OM after high-dose chemotherapy and autologous HCT in a phase III, randomized, open label and multi-center study.
