Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study is a Phase 2, double-blind, randomized controlled trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of TV5M01 (a 5% green tea and 0.1% morphine gel) compared to triple mixture (0.19% lidocaine, 0.29% nystatin, and 5.50% hydroxides) for treating radiation-induced oral mucositis in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. The trial will enroll 40 patients (20 per group) with stage III-IV head and neck cancer receiving radiotherapy who develop grade 1 or higher mucositis. Participants will apply the assigned mouthwash three times daily from mucositis diagnosis until resolution. Primary outcomes include safety (incidence of infections and adverse events) and efficacy (duration of grade 3-4 mucositis, days with severe pain). Secondary outcomes include quality of life and analgesic use. Randomization will use minimization methodology to balance important prognostic factors. The study design incorporates two interim analyses after 10 and 19 participants, with clear safety monitoring and stopping rules. If successful, this trial could provide an evidence-based treatment option for radiotherapy-induced mucositis, potentially improving treatment completion rates and quality of life for head and neck cancer patients.

- TV5M01 Oral Gel for Radiation-Induced Mucositis
- description
- This arm will receive TV5M01 oral gel (5% green tea extract with 0.1% morphine) as an oral rinse. Participants will use 10 mL of the preparation three times daily at 8-hour intervals (±2 hours) from the diagnosis of grade 1 or higher mucositis throughout radiation therapy or until mucositis resolves. The medication should be administered at consistent times daily without fasting requirements. Doses vomited while in clinic may be replaced; however, participants should not take replacement doses for self-administered doses vomited at home. Missed doses should be skipped rather than doubled at the next scheduled time.
