Chemotherapy- and/or Radiation-induced Oral Mucositis
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a randomized, multi-center, single-use, active-controlled, two-stage open study of episil®. The purpose of this study is to assess the local analgesic effect of episil® in cancer patients suffering from chemotherapy- and/or radiation-induced oral mucositis, which will provide scientific and reliable clinical data in the product registration in China.
Interventions
Firmly press the pump and apply the stream of liquid to the oral cavity 3 times (a total volume of 0.45 mL approximately). Distribute to affected areas in the mouth, for example by using the tongue. Wait for 5 minutes for the protective film to form.
Gently pour 5 mL of rinse into the mouth, keep the rinse staying in the oral cavity for at least 1 minute, and spilt out the liquid.
