Brief Summary

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

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of Gelronate gel, NaHA based product (medical device for topical application) vs. Aloevera gel, in prevention or minimizing of radiation induced skin reaction in breast cancer patients

Detailed Description

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

Gelronate is gel composed of 1% high molecular weight pharmaceutical grade sodium hyaluronate and preservatives dissolved in pharmaceutical grade purified water. Gelronate supply in an airless pump bottle contain \~30 ml gel. In the study, 120 female patients planned to receive whole breast radiation (with or without lymphatic drainage) in the radiotherapy unit at Sheba Medical Center.

Patients will undergo CT simulation with 3D treatment planning (as routine done) and will receive 42.4 Gy in daily fraction of 2.65 Gy, five times per week to the whole breast according to the standard department protocol, with or without concomitant or subsequent lumpectomy cavity boost. Patients data including demographics, staging, systemic therapy, radiation details, other medications will be recorded the protocol's forms.

The gel will be applied as a thin lotion twice a day, immediately after radiotherapy treatment and once more in the evening/morning. The therapy will continue for 10 days following the end of radiation therapy.
