ciprofloxacin and Head and Neck Neoplasms

ciprofloxacin has been researched along with Head and Neck Neoplasms in 6 studies

Ciprofloxacin: A broad-spectrum antimicrobial carboxyfluoroquinoline.
ciprofloxacin : A quinolone that is quinolin-4(1H)-one bearing cyclopropyl, carboxylic acid, fluoro and piperazin-1-yl substituents at positions 1, 3, 6 and 7, respectively.

Head and Neck Neoplasms: Soft tissue tumors or cancer arising from the mucosal surfaces of the LIP; oral cavity; PHARYNX; LARYNX; and cervical esophagus. Other sites included are the NOSE and PARANASAL SINUSES; SALIVARY GLANDS; THYROID GLAND and PARATHYROID GLANDS; and MELANOMA and non-melanoma skin cancers of the head and neck. (from Holland et al., Cancer Medicine, 4th ed, p1651)

Trial Outcomes

Bone and/or Tissue Healing as Measured With the Classification of ORN Stages, Area of Bone Exposed (mm2) and Radiological Findings (OPG).

"Clinical healing assessment as measured with the classification of ORN stages, area of bone exposed (mm2) and radiological findings (OPG).~Intraoral bone exposure is measured in mm2." (NCT02368457)

Clinical Symptoms Evaluation, Measured Using the LENT-SOMA Scale

"Evaluation of symptoms improvement using the LENT-SOMA scale (Late Effect Normal Tissue Task Force / Subjective, Objective, Management, Analytic scale).~To examine the LENT/SOMA scale prospectively using interviews and questionnaires~Assessments were made from baseline to 1, 3, 6 and 9 months of starting treatments. The acceptability and feasibility of using the scales was examined using compliance in completion of the questionnaires.~Maximum score: 36 Minimum score: 0~Questionnaires have been completed for 24 patients after treatment. Higher values represents worse outcome.~Scale categories:~Subjective: pain, nutritional problems, difficulty in mouth openning. Objective: bone exposure, trismus, Management: analgesic treatment, oral treatment, nutrition. Analytic: radiological findings." (NCT02368457)
