Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Homeodent®
Mouthwash with Homeodent® is started on the first day of irradiation, then continued until the end of the irradiation period or until occurrence of grade ≥3 mucositis. In case of grade ≥3 mucositis, patients are instructed to mouthwash with Sodium Bicarbonate solution until complete disappearance of mucositis or until the end of irradiation.
Homeodent®
Two-minute mouthwash with 5 ml of solution diluted in 125 ml of water, 3 times per day after meals and tooth brushing.
1.4 % Sodium Bicarbonate solution
Mouthwash with sodium bicarbonate is started on the first day of irradiation, then continued until the end of the irradiation period. In case of grade ≥3 mucositis, mouthwash is continued until complete disappearance of the mucositis or until the end of irradiation.
In both arms, after the end of irradiation, patients can receive treatment with Sodium Bicarbonate solution until complete disappearance of the mucositis.
1.4% Sodium Bicarbonate solution
Two-minute mouthwash with 125 ml of solution, 3 times per day after meals and tooth brushing
