Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Enrollment is only available to patients enrolled on the Optima II study (NCT03107182).

The purpose of this trial is to compare rates of opioid use at completion of radiation for patients with Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade ≥ 2 oral mucositis after receiving definitive nonoperative locoregional therapy with or without prophylactic gabapentin as part of best supportive care for locoregionally-advanced, HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer. Secondary purposes include comparison of total equivalent opioid dosage above baseline opioid use at end of treatment, quality of life metrics, swallowing function, feeding tube dependence, and protocol compliance in patients managed with best support care with or without prophylactic gabapentin. Rates of gabapentin-related side effects and discontinuation will also be investigated.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Enrollment is only available to patients enrolled on the Optima II study (NCT03107182).

Primary objective: To compare rates of opioid requirement as a function of supportive care in patients experiencing CTCAE grade ≥2 oral mucositis at completion of radiation or chemoradiation as part of OPTIMA II

Secondary objectives: To compare total opioid equivalent dose above baseline opioid requirement at end of radiation, quality of life metrics, swallowing function, feeding-tube dependence, and protocol compliance in patients managed with best supportive care with or without prophylactic gabapentin. To investigate rates of gabapentin-related toxicity and discontinuation for patients treated on protocol.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Gabapentin

Participants randomized to this arm will receive gabapentin beginning on evening of the first day of radiation treatment at a dose of 600 mg. Gabapentin will continue to be taken twice a day (morning and evening) for the next 4 days of radiation treatment at increasing doses (up to 900 mg). Participants will continue to receive standard best supportive care medications as per their treating physician's recommendation.
