A Randomized Controlled Study on the Improvement of Medical Experience for Patients With Radiation-induced Oropharyngeal Mucositis Based on the RIS System of the Internet of Things

This study is a researcher-initiated, multi-center, prospective, two-arm interventional randomized controlled study across the country. It aims to explore whether an Internet of Things-based RIS system can enhance the medical experience of patients with radiation-induced oropharyngeal mucositis during the diagnosis and treatment process among head and neck cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy.

Comparative Study of New Classification and Traditional Classification of Radioactive Oropharyngeal Mucositis

Radiation oropharyngeal mucositis is one of the most painful side effects of radiotherapy in patients with head and neck tumors. However, the traditional radioactive oropharyngeal mucositis grading system has the problem of poor evaluation consistency. To solve this problem, we innovatively classify radiation oropharyngeal mucositis into four types according to the four-stage histopathological changes of acute radiation injury: (1) congestive; (2) Scattered erosion type; (3) Fusion erosion type; (4) Ulcer type. We intend to conduct a multicenter observational cohort study to compare the consistency of different physicians in the assessment of radiation oropharyngeal mucositis with new and traditional classifications, and to explore changes in blood markers of different types of oropharyngeal mucositis using clinical residual blood samples.

Effects of Mesenchymal Stem Cell Supernatant on Prevention and Treatment of Skin/Mucosal Injury in Hematology Patients

This clinical trial is studying the effects of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) culture supernatant on the prevention and treatment of mucosal injuries in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). HSCT is a common treatment for blood-related cancers and other serious blood disorders. However, many patients experience severe damage to their mucous membranes, including the lining of the mouth, skin, and bladder, due to the high-dose chemotherapy used in the treatment process. These mucosal injuries can cause pain, increase the risk of infection, and lower the patient's quality of life. The purpose of this study is to determine whether MSC culture supernatant can help repair mucosal injuries and improve recovery for these patients. MSC culture supernatant contains substances produced by mesenchymal stem cells that may promote healing and reduce inflammation. These substances could potentially repair tissue without the risks associated with using live cells. Participants in this trial will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group will receive standard care, and the other will receive MSC culture supernatant as part of their treatment. The study will look at how well MSC supernatant helps heal mucosal injuries, as well as its safety and any side effects that may occur. The outcomes of this study could lead to new ways to prevent and treat mucosal injuries in patients undergoing HSCT, improving their quality of life during and after treatment. The trial will include 120 patients who have undergone HSCT and experienced mucosal injuries. The study will last approximately five years, from October 2020 to September 2025. Participants will be monitored throughout the trial for safety and effectiveness of the treatment, with follow-up visits scheduled to assess their progress.
