amifostine anhydrous and Carcinoma, Epidermoid

amifostine anhydrous has been researched along with Carcinoma, Epidermoid in 50 studies

Amifostine: A phosphorothioate proposed as a radiation-protective agent. It causes splenic vasodilation and may block autonomic ganglia.
amifostine : An organic thiophosphate that is the S-phospho derivative of 2-[(3-aminopropyl)amino]ethanethiol. A prodrug for the free thiol, WR-1065, which is used as a cytoprotectant in cancer chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

"The Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) is the measure of anatomical changes associated with oral mucositis. Patients scores will be compared to historical data of patient progression.~RTOG Scoring Criteria- Grade 0(none)- No change over baseline Grade 1(mild)- Irritation, may experience slight pain, not requiring analgesic Grade 2(moderate)- Patchy mucositis that may produce inflammatory serosanguinitis discharge; may experience moderate pain requiring analgesia Grade 3(severe) -Confluent, fibrinous mucositis, may include severe pain requiring narcotic Grade 4(life-threatening)-Ulceration, hemorrhage, or necrosis" (NCT02399228)

Safety Will be Assessed Based on the Frequency and Severity of Adverse Events.

"Adverse Events (AEs) will be assessed in accordance the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). The number of patients experiencing adverse events possibly, or probably related to the study product will be reported.~Possibly related: A clinical event, including laboratory test abnormality (if applicable), with a reasonable time sequence to administration of the drug, but which could also be explained by concurrent disease or other drugs or chemicals.~Probably related: A clinical event, including laboratory test abnormality (if applicable), with a reasonable time sequence to administration of the drug, unlikely to be attributed to concurrent disease or other drugs or chemicals, and which follows a clinically reasonable response on withdrawal."
