Mist from stem cells for radiation mouth sores
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a mist made from special cells (stem cell exosomes) can reduce or prevent painful mouth sores caused by radiation therapy for head and neck cancer. It is for people about to start radiation to the mouth or throat area.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a confirmed head or neck cancer
- You are between 18 and 75 years old

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether a medicine called N-acetylcysteine (NAC) can prevent mouth sores caused by radiation therapy for head and neck cancer. If you are starting radiation, this trial may help protect your mouth from painful side effects.
This trial tests whether a liquid made from stem cells (MSC supernatant) can help prevent or treat mouth, skin, and bladder sores that often happen after stem cell transplants, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy.
This trial is testing a single injection called Amimestrocel to prevent severe mouth sores in people getting a stem cell transplant. The study is for adults who are receiving high-dose conditioning with total body irradiation or melphalan, which often cause painful mouth inflammation.
This trial tests whether repeated injections of stem cells (mesenchymal stem cells) can help people who have chronic dry mouth after radiation therapy for head or neck cancer. The goal is to improve saliva production and reduce discomfort.
This trial tests a gel called TV5M01 to see if it can help reduce mouth sores caused by radiation therapy for head and neck cancer. It is for adults who are about to start radiation and already have early signs of mucositis.
This study tests if a mouth rinse with GM-CSF (a protein that helps healing) can prevent mouth sores caused by radiation therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. If you are about to start radiation, this may help reduce pain and trouble eating.
