Xerostomia due to readiotherapy for a head & neck cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
The primary outcome measure will be unstimulated whole salivary flow rate (measured by sialometry) from baseline (t=0) to 8 months, assessed at baseline, 4, and 8 months. This domain has been chosen as whole salivary flow rate is observed to be the cardinal symptom in xerostomia[34]. The primary endpoint will be assessed as the difference between groups measured after 8 months in mL/min.
