The Effectiveness of a Thyme and Honey Spray for Oral Toxicities
Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of thymus honey on radiation induced-oral mucositis and xerostomia. Background: Oral mucositis and xerostomia are two of the most severe side effects that head and neck cancer patients confront during and after the completion of radiotherapy. Although several medications are used for their treatment, these fail to provide a fully effective and comprehensive management. Honey and thyme have been studied for the management of various treatment-related side effects. Design: Α double blinded randomised controlled trial will be used for this study. Methods: 200 head and neck cancer patients...

The Effect of Intraoperative Dexmedetomidine on Postoperative Morphine Requirements After Breast Cancer Surgery
Dexmedetomidine is an α2 receptor agonist with sedative and analgesic properties. In previous reports, dexmedetomidine improves smoothness of postoperative recovery and reduces intraoperatory imflammatory responses. As patients receiving breast surgeries are especially vulnerable to postoperative nausea/ vomiting, the dosage of narcotics and associated complications were concerned for not only comfortness but also postoperative oral intake and discharge. The invetigators aimed to compare the effects of dexmedetomidine infusion versus placebo on postoperative narcotics requirement, complications, and oral intake.

The Head and Neck Registry of the European Reference Network on Rare Adult Solid Cancers
Cancer care for head and neck cancers is multidisciplinary and complex and knowledge on the rare ones is limited. There is a wide consensus that to support clinical research on rare cancers, clinical registries should be developed within networks specializing in rare cancers. Our hypothesis is that our head and neck cancer registry established in the framework of the European reference network on rare adults solid cancers will help to: describe the natural history of rare head and neck cancers; evaluate factors that influence prognosis; assess treatment effectiveness; measure indicators of quality of care. The registry is a...

The Optimal Neck Treatments Strategy of Early Oral Cancer Based on Adverse Pathological Factor
Cervical nodal metastasis is the most certain prognostic factor in oral cancer. Appropriate management of the neck is therefore of paramount importance in the treatment of oral cancer. However, there is still some controversy on the treatment of early maxillofacial malignancies. Currently, investigators have no accurate uniform treatment standards, including the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) recommended between surgery and radiotherapy options. Clinical evaluation indicated that lymph node-negative patients eventually 25%-35% had cervical node metastasis. Therefore, for the majority of patients with true node-negative,...

Tirelizumab in Combination With Carboplatin and Albumin-binding Paclitaxel for Neoadjuvant Therapy in HNSCC
In this study, 100 patients with resectable head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (oral squamous cell carcinoma and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma) were enrolled, who were combined with tirelizumab, carboplatin and albumin-binding paclitaxel before and after surgery. Tumor tissues and paracancer tissues of patients were collected to observe the imaging and pathological changes before and after treatment. At the same time, clinical information of patients, such as pathological grade, stage, treatment, prognosis, serology, imaging, etc. were collected to evaluate the safety and feasibility of tirelizumab combined with...

Topical or Oral Minoxidil for the Treatment of Endocrine Therapy-Induced Alopecia in Patients With Stage I-IV Breast Cancer
This early phase I trial studies the possible benefits and/or side effects of topical or oral minoxidil in treating endocrine therapy-induced hair loss (alopecia) in patients with stage I-IV breast cancer. Endocrine therapy-induced alopecia (EIA) is a distressing side effect that leads to reduced quality of life and early cessation of therapy in women undergoing treatment for breast cancer. Patients on endocrine therapy commonly report hair loss or thinning. Minoxidil is a drug that may promote hair growth and reduce hair loss. Oral minoxidil may increase hair density in women with EIA, and work the same as topical minoxidil in...
