ketamine and Carcinoma, Epidermoid

ketamine has been researched along with Carcinoma, Epidermoid in 6 studies

Ketamine: A cyclohexanone derivative used for induction of anesthesia. Its mechanism of action is not well understood, but ketamine can block NMDA receptors (RECEPTORS, N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE) and may interact with sigma receptors.
ketamine : A member of the class of cyclohexanones in which one of the hydrogens at position 2 is substituted by a 2-chlorophenyl group, while the other is substituted by a methylamino group.

Trial Outcomes

Change in Pain Scores

Change in pain score as reported at baseline and after the use of ketamine mouthwash on a numeric scale from 0 to 10, with 0 representing no pain and 10 representing the worst pain. (NCT01566448)
Timeframe: 1 hour after baseline

Interventionscore on a scale (Median)
Ketamine2

Change in Sleep Quality

Sleep quality, as reported by the subject on a numeric scale (1-10) will be used as a surrogate marker of quality of life with 0 indicating no sleep and 10 indicating the best sleep you have had. (NCT01566448)
Timeframe: Day 1 after start of ketamine mouthwashes

Interventionscore on a scale (Median)
Ketamine1

Change in Topical Lidocaine Usage

Change of topical lidocaine uses in 24 hour period (NCT01566448)
Timeframe: Days 1 after start of ketamine mouthwashes

Interventionlidocaine doses per day (Median)
Ketamine1

Change in Use of Narcotic Analgesics

Change in IV morphine equivalents of opioid requirements (NCT01566448)
Timeframe: Days 1 after start of ketamine mouthwashes

InterventionIV morphine equivalents (Median)
