Standardized mouth care for children having stem cell transplants
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special, standardized mouth care routine can reduce mouth sores (called oral mucositis) in children getting a stem cell transplant. The care routine is simple and may help prevent painful mouth sores, making the transplant experience easier.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- The child must be between 1 and 18 years old.
- The child must be scheduled to receive a stem cell transplant, also called a bone marrow transplant.
- The child must not have mouth sores or ulcers before the transplant.
- The child must not have already received treatment specifically to prevent mouth sores.
- The child and their family must agree to take part and be able to complete the study visits.

This study tests whether a coconut oil mouth rinse can help prevent mouth sores in children and young adults who are about to receive intense chemotherapy for a stem cell transplant. If mouth sores can be prevented, it may make treatment more comfortable and reduce complications.
This study tests whether a special mouthwash made from copaiba (a natural oil) plus low-level laser therapy can prevent mouth sores caused by high-dose chemotherapy before a stem cell transplant. It might help reduce pain and trouble eating during your transplant treatment.
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 a type of light treatment (photobiomodulation) placed in the mouth to help prevent painful mouth sores (oral mucositis) in adults getting a stem cell transplant. It may help reduce mouth discomfort and complications during transplant recovery.
This study tests whether a special nutritional program can help patients undergoing a stem cell transplant for blood cancers. It aims to improve recovery and overall health during treatment.
This study tests whether a special kind of laser therapy (called high-level laser therapy) can help heal severe mouth sores in children who are having a bone marrow transplant. If your child has painful mouth sores from the transplant, this treatment might reduce pain and speed healing.
