What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Proportion of WHO score 3-4 Oral Mucositis at a Cumulative Radiation Dosage of 50 Gy in the active and Placebo Groups

    Degree of oral mucositis will be scored using WHO scoring system bi-weekly throughout course of the trial

    Measured: Participants will be assessed twice per week during the duration of chemoradiation therapy anticipated to be 5-7 weeks. Following chemoradiation therapy the participants will be assessed weekly for two weeks.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Incidence of grade 2-3-4 Oral Mucositis as measured by the WHO scale at increasing increments of cumulative radiation exposure

    Measured: Participants will be assessed twice per week during the duration of chemoradiation therapy anticipated to be 5-7 weeks. Following chemoradiation therapy the participants will be assessed weekly for two weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing IZN-6N4 in people with Oral Mucositis, run by Izun Pharma Ltd at 10 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in Israel, United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of WHO score 3-4 Oral Mucositis at a Cumulative Radiation Dosage of 50 Gy in the active and Placebo Groups (time frame: Participants will be assessed twice per week during the duration of chemoradiation therapy anticipated to be 5-7 weeks. Following chemoradiation therapy the participants will be assessed weekly for two weeks.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Mar 2018.
