NCT05104268

Brief Summary

This is a single-center randomized controlled trial of a new medical device (Bocaliner™) that has been designed to improve the treatment of chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis in patients undergoing cancer treatment. The goal of this study is to determine tolerance and response to the use of Bocaliner™ as reported by patients with chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy-induced oral mucositis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Patient-Reported Oral Mucositis Symptom (The Modified PROMS Questionnaire) Pain Score

    The modified PROMS score is designed to measure symptoms and quality of life in patients with oral mucositis. It consists of twelve questions. The range in scores for each section is 0 to 100. Higher scores on the Modified PROMS indicate worse outcomes. The range in the Pain Score of the Modified PROMS Questionnaire is from 0 to 100.

    5, 10, and 14 days

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Change in other symptoms of oral mucositis on the Patient-Reported Oral Mucositis Symptom (The Modified PROMS Questionnaire.

    5, 10, and 14 days

  • Change of oral mucositis grade in the World Health Organization Grade,(WHO Mucositis Grade)

    5, 10, and 14 days

Study Arms (2)

Standard Therapy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subjects will then be randomized into two groups. The Standard Therapy Group will continue their usual therapy with oral topical agents for oral mucositis.

Device: Bocaliner

Bocaliner

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants that are randomized to the Bocaliner Group will place Bocaliner™ inside of their mouth for 5 minutes and fill out the Initial Bocaliner™ Questionnaire. They will then continue all original therapy for oral mucositis, including oral topical treatments and general hygiene, and will place the Bocaliner™ device inside of their mouth and hold it in place up to 40 minutes as instructed after each topical treatment.

Device: Bocaliner

Interventions

BocalinerDEVICE

Bocaliner is an orally inserted device that is held within the mouth following the administration of mouthwashes, gels, and rinses that are used to treat pain associated with oral mucositis, and to reduce inflammation and to accelerate healing of oral mucositis.
