About this study

Official title: The Efficacy of the Medical Device Jalosome® Soothing Gel in the Healing of Grade of 2 or 3 Radiodermatitis, Pain Intensity Reduction, as Well as Improvement of QoL in Oncology Patients: a Pilot Study.

Testing the efficacy of the Jalosome® Soothing gel in 2 or 3 grade radiodermatitis healing in oncological patients.

The investigators would like to know also the efficacy of the device on quality of life and pain.

Read the detailed description

The overall objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of the class IIA medical device Jalosome® soothing gel in the healing of grade 2 or 3 radiodermatitis, in oncology patients undergoing radiotherapy treatment, during a 8-week observation period.

The secondary endpoints are radiodermatitis pain control and quality of life.

The investigators would like to involve 30 oncology patients. All oncology diagnosis will be included in this pilot study. The study will adopt a quasi-experimental design with one arm. The results will be used to determine the sample size for a clinical trial in which the class IIA medical device Jalosome® soothing gel will be compared to usual care.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Jalosome® Soothing gelExperimentalThe medical device will be applied by the patient himself, after appropriate training carried out by the nurse, twice a day, in the quantity necessary to cover the lesion (0.2g of gel /16 cm2 of skin (one spray), repeated as many times as necessary to cover the entire lesion). The treatment will last 8 weeks. The medical device will be delivered in the quantity strictly necessary to carry out the therapies between visits, in order to monitor its use. Patients will be seen weekly by the nurse, in order to ensure the best continuity of care and promote adherence to the study. Patients will be asked to keep a weekly diary, in which they will report their level of pain, analgesic therapy and medication. Nurses will be available for telephone counselling, if necessary.

What is being measured

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

  1. Grade 2 or 3 radiodermatitis healing

    The primary endpoint is the number of grade 2 or 3 radiodermatitis healed by the application of Jalosome® soothing gel during the observation period, out of the total number of patients treated. This endpoint will be assessed by photographic documentation of lesion improvement and healing and with the aid of the RGOT scale (which should regress from grade 2 or 3 to grade 0 or 1).

    The time to regression of the lesion will also be monitored on this same endpoint in order to establish the rate of efficacy of the product against grade 2 and 3 lesions.

    Measured: 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Pain quality and intensity

    The first secondary endpoint will be the intensity and quality of pain, measured respectively by the NRS scale and by questions on the type of pain perceived (twinge, burning, pins, allodynia (i.e. a painful impulse following a harmless stimulus), cramp-like, piercing (stab-like)).

    Measured: 8 weeks

  2. Skindex questionnaire - 16 for quality of life

    Quality of life will then be assessed as a second enpoint, using the Skindex questionnaire - 16

    Measured: at the beginning, after 4 weeks and after 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Jalosome soothing gel in people with Radiodermatitis and Oncology, run by Welcare Industries SpA at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 6 inclusion and 7 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Switzerland. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Grade 2 or 3 radiodermatitis healing (time frame: 8 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 8 Feb 2022.
