Official title
Randomized Phase III, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled Study of Prophylactic Gabapentin for the Reduction of Radiation Therapy Induced Pain During the Treatment of Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Strategies to minimize and mitigate external beam radiation therapy related mucositis and pain during the treatment of head and neck cancer remain limited. The investigators hypothesize that gabapentin could be used to delay or reduce treatment-related pain, reliance on opioid medication, and improve the quality of life for these patients.
