Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: - Determine changes in the xerostomia characteristics and discomfort degree by means of questionnaires addressed to the physician and subject of study. - Determine the volume of submaxilar saliva without stimulation and with stimulation by sialometry (SL). - Detect changes in volume, vascularization and fibrosis of submaxillary glands based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with contrast. - Detect changes of submaxillary gland functionalism based on Gammagraphy (GF). ;Secondary Objective: - Determine the Safety of the proposed procedure by recording adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs).; Primary end point(s): - Changes in the OHIP Questionnaire (OHIP-14-sp) and EVA of xerostomia to determine the changes in the characteristics and degree of discomfort of xerostomia. - Restoration or increase of salivary function to determine the volume of submaxilla saliva without stimulation and with stimulation (sialometry). - Restoration of the glandular structure (volume, vascularization and fibrosis of submaxillary glands) by means of NMR with contrast that denote changes in its volume and fibrosis. - Measurement of submaxillary gland functionalism changes through gammagraphy. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 months + 12 months for safety (outside the clinical trial) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Determination of the Safety of the proposed procedure, recording adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs). It will be considered as early safety measures: Pain at the site of injection, submaxillary swelling, duration of submaxillary swelling in days, oral discomfort, infection. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 months + 12 months for safety (outside the clinical trial) | — |
