Conditions

Head and Neck Cancer

Keywords

head and neck cancer, Hydrotac®, radiodermatitis, algia, radiotherapy

Brief summary

The investigators hope to get by reduced and delayed acute radiodermatitis following the application of dressings to skin hydrogel Hydrosorb®, a reduction in head and neck pains and improved quality of life of patients with head and neck cancer treated with concomitant radiotherapy.

Interventions

DEVICEbandage skin Hydrotac®

Patients randomized to the arm with bandage skin will benefit from the application of the bandage skin hydrogel (Hydrotac®) at least 5 hours per day for the duration of treatment (the first day last day of radiotherapy).

DRUGIaluset®

Patients randomized to receive reference of the application of cervical Ialuset® on skin throughout the treatment period (the first day to last day of radiotherapy).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Impact of Applying a Bandage Hydrogel Skin on Head and Neck Painsend of radiotherapy (2 months after inclusion)Assessing the impact of applying a bandage hydrogel skin on head and neck pains in patients with cancer of head and neck treated with concomitant radiotherapy by evaluating the proportion of patients with a deterioration in three or more points to their score algia EVA rating scale at the end of treatment compared to that obtained at baseline (D0).

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Chemotherapy Dose Reductionduring 36 months after radiotherapyEvaluating the terms of issue of the treatment (dose reduction of chemothrapy treatment)
