Efficacy of polyacrylate silver salt/polyvinylpyrrolidone-based liquid oral gel in management of concurrence chemoradiotherapy-induced oral mucositis
Background/Purpose: Acute oral mucositis (OM) is a painful complication of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). This severe adverse symptom may impact on patient's quality of life, lead to malnutrition. Thus, finding more effective methods in OM management is very important. The purpose of this...

description | Background/Purpose: Acute oral mucositis (OM) is a painful complication of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). This severe adverse symptom may impact on patient's quality of life, lead to malnutrition. Thus, finding more effective methods in OM management is very important. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of polyacrylate silver salt/Polyvinylpyrrolidone-based liquid oral gel (named as polyacrylate silver salt oral gel) in improving the symptomatic relief of CCRT-induced oral mucositis and oral dysfunction in neck and head cancer patients. Methods: In this study, 24 oral cancer patients underwent CCRT and having OM grade 2 or higher were randomly assigned into the test group and the control group. Both groups followed Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer and International Society of Oral Oncology (MASCC/ISOO) clinical practice guidelines for the management of mucositis, but adding rinsing with 15 g oral gel right after oral hygiene treaded the test group. Clinical OM and oral function were assessed weekly for 4 consecutive weeks till 5–10 days after the completion of radiotherapy. For evaluation, Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v3.0 was used for collecting the data of OM grade. Results: The results showed that polyacrylate silver salt oral gel had better effect for relieving the oral mucositis. There were statistically significant differences in OM grades (1.59 vs. 2.8, p < 0.0001) between the test group and the control group. Conclusion: Our clinical studies demonstrated that polyacrylate silver salt oral gel is an effective interventional option in terms of rapid mucositis healing. |
