TRIAD Burden of Illness Mucositis Study
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by TRIAD Burden of Illness, April 2007
Sponsored by: TRIAD Burden of Illness
Information provided by: TRIAD Burden of Illness
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00336609
  Purpose

Observational (non-drug) study to look at the risks and burden of mucositis (sores) involving the mouth, throat and intestines in patients receiving chemotherapy and radiation therapy treatment for various cancer types.


Condition
Gastrointestinal Mucositis (Defined as Mucositis Involving the Mouth, Esophagus, or Small Intestine)

MedlinePlus related topics: Cancer
U.S. FDA Resources
Study Type: Observational
Study Design: Longitudinal, Defined Population, Prospective Study
Official Title: Risk and Outcomes of Mucositis in Subjects Being Treated for Breast, Colorectal, Head and Neck, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancers or Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

Further study details as provided by TRIAD Burden of Illness:

Estimated Enrollment: 1600
Study Start Date: November 2005
Estimated Study Completion Date: May 2007
Detailed Description:

This comprehensive, observational study will prospectively elicit the true incidence (risk) and health and economic burdens of mucosal toxicities associated with anti-cancer drug and radiation therapy. This study will examine the burden of illness of gastrointestinal mucositis (defined as mucositis involving the mouth, esophagus, or small intestine) in the most significant regimens used to treat the most common types of cancers. It is an international investigation in which 1600 patients being treated with specific regimens for cancers of the head and neck, breast, colon, lung (NSCLC)and Non-Hogkin's Lymphoma will be prospectively enrolled from centers throughout the US, Canada, Europe and Australia.
