Trial Outcomes & Findings for Glutamine for the Prevention of Radiation Toxicity in Subjects Conserving Therapy (NCT NCT02012608)

NCT ID: NCT02012608

Last Updated: 2019-05-29

Results Overview

The primary efficacy outcome will be excessive toxicity, which will be defined as a score of 2 or higher using the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) Acute scale of radiation-toxicity criteria when scored on either the 12-day or 30-day assessment time. The RTOG scale ranges from 0-4 with 0 being defined as "no change".

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 days and 30 days

Population: No data displayed because Outcome Measure has zero total participants analyzed and no data was collected.

The primary efficacy outcome will be excessive toxicity, which will be defined as a score of 2 or higher using the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) Acute scale of radiation-toxicity criteria when scored on either the 12-day or 30-day assessment time. The RTOG scale ranges from 0-4 with 0 being defined as "no change".
