This is a phase 3, open-label, multicenter, randomized controlled phase III clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ulinastatin, a kind of protease inhibitor, in the treatment of radiation-induced acute oral mucositis in localregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) patients treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy(CCRT). To Explore a new and efficient way to reduce the incidence and severity of radiation-induced acute oral mucositis.
Radiation-induced acute oral mucositis (RTOM) in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC) patients treat with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) is common. Currently, there is no effective treatment for RTOM. Ulinastatin, is a kind of natural anti-inflammatory substance. And this substance is insufficient when the body's inflammatory response is strongly. There are a series of studies have confirmed the efficacy and safety of ulinastatin in the treatment of body's inflammatory response. From the observation of our previous clinical practice, we found that ulinastatin can relieve the severity of RTOM. The present study is undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of ulinastatin in the treatment of RTOM in localregionally advanced NPC patients treated with CCRT.

Severe oral mucositis was defined as a Grade 3 or above of Common Terminology Criteria For Adverse Events of Version 4.03 (CTCAE 4.03). CTCAE 4.03 grade 3 = severe pain; interfering with oral; CTCAE 4.03 grade 4 = Life-threatening consequences; urgent intervention indicated; CTCAE 4.03 grade 5 = death. Mucositis will be assessed weekly during concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for 7 weeks, and assessed once at 1 month after CCRT and 3 months after CCRT, respectively.

| Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy | Radiation | Patients in both arms received Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy: All target volumes were outlined slice by slice on the axial contrast-enhanced CT with MR fusion images in the treatment planning system. The target volumes were defined in accordance with the International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements Reports 50 and 62. The prescribed dose was 68-72 Gy to PTVnx (Planning target volume of the primary tumor), 64-68 Gy to GTVnd (Gross tumor volume of the cervical lymph node), 60- 64Gy to PTVnd and PTV1 (Planning target volume 1), and 54-58 Gy to PTV2 (Planning target volume 2) in 30-32 fractions. The details of dose limits for organs at risk were based on the study 0225 from The Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG 0225). |
|
|
| Ulinastatin | Drug | Patients in the experimental group were received ulinastatin: Ulinastatin (UTI): ulinastatin was intravenous drip at a dose of one hundred thousand units added to 100 ml of 0.9% normal saline every time, 3 times every radiation day, and until the end of radiotherapy. |
|
|
| Up to Week 19 |
| Oral Assessment Guide (OAG) Score | The Oral Assessment Guide (OAG) score is calculated based on the following categories: ability of swallow; the appearance of lips; the appearance of tongue; the appearance of oral mucous membranes; the appearance of gingivae; the appearance of teeth; and the change of voice. There are three grades in every category. The details about Oral Assessment Guide is available in: http://www.rch.org.au/rchcpg/hospital\_clinical\_guideline\_index/Mouth\_Care\_of\_the\_paediatric\_oncology\_patient/. The OAG score will be assessed weekly during concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for 7 weeks, and assessed once at 1 month after CCRT and 3 months after CCRT, respectively. The whole observation time may up to 19 weeks. | Up to 19 weeks |
| Oral Mucositis Scores by World Health Organization (WHO) | The Oral Mucositis Score of World Health Organization (WHO) was classified based on the changes of patients' oral mucosa and ability to eat, and are classified to 4 grades. WHO scale for oral mucositis (available in: Peterson DE, Boersdoets CB, Bensadoun RJ, et al. Management of oral and gastrointestinal mucosal injury: ESMO Clinical Practice Guidelines for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. Annals of Oncology 2015; 26(supply5). https://doi.org/10.1093/annonc/mdv202): Grade 0 = no oral mucositis; Grade 1 = erythema and soreness; Grade 2 = ulcers, able to eat solids; Grade 3 = ulcers, requires liquid diet (due to mucositis); Grade 4 = ulcers, alimentation not possible (due to mucositis). The WHO score will be assessed weekly during concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for 7 weeks, and assessed once at 1 month after CCRT and 3 months after CCRT, respectively. The whole observation time may up to 19 weeks. | Up to 19 weeks |
| Rate of Participants With Unplanned Breaks in Radiotherapy | Participants with a duration of 5 days or more without an administration of radiotherapy or who discontinue radiotherapy prior to completion of planned radiotherapy were considered to have an unplanned break in radiotherapy. The rate of unplanned break was calculated for both arms. | During the 7 weeks for concurrent chemoradiotherapy |
| Quality of Life with EORTC QLQ-C30 | The quality of life for all participants was evaluated according to The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) (available in: Grønvold M. EORTC QLQ-C30 Scoring Manual 2014.). The EORTC QLQ-C30 shoule be completed weekly during concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for 7 weeks, and assessed once at 1 month after CCRT and 3 months after CCRT, respectively. The whole observation time may up to 19 weeks. | Up to 19 weeks |
| Karnofsky Performance Status Scale | The functional status for all participants was assessed according to Karnofsky Performance Status Scale (KPS Scale) (available in: Friendlander AH, Ettinger RL. Karnofsky performance status scale[J]. Special Care in Dentistry, 2009, 29(4):147.). The KPS Scale was range from 0 to 100, and were averagely divided into eleven grades begin with 0. The KPS Scale will be recoreded weekly during concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for 7 weeks, and assessed once at 1 month after CCRT and 3 months after CCRT, respectively. The whole observation time may up to 19 weeks. | Up to 19 weeks |
| Numeric Rating Scale for Pain(NRS scale) | The pain caused by oral mucositis for all participants was assessed according to Numeric Rating Scale (NRS scale), by which a respondent selects a whole number (0-10 integers) that best reflects the intensity of their pain. And an 11-point scale where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates the worst imaginable pain. The scale for each patient was recorded. The NRS scale will be assessed weekly during concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for 7 weeks, and assessed once at 1 month after CCRT and 3 months after CCRT, respectively. The whole observation time may up to 19 weeks. | Up to 19 weeks |
| 3 Months Overall Response Rate | Efficacy was estimated according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) (available in: Watanabe H, Okada M, Kaji Y, et al. New response evaluation criteria in solid tumours-revised RECIST guideline (version 1.1. European Journal of Cancer, 2009, 45(2):228-247.). The efficacy was divided into complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), and progressive disease (PD). And CR was defined as disappearance of all target lesions, PR was defined as at least a 30% reduction in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions. Overall response rate (ORR) is the sum rate of patients with CR and PR for the total number of evaluable patients. | Assessed at 3 months after concurrent chemoradiotherapy |
| The Adverse events Related to Ulinastatin | The adverse events related to ulinastatin based on medicine specification of ulinastatin was observed and recorded down according to Common toxicity criteria, version 2.0. (available in: Version CTC, Version CTC, Date P, et al. Common toxicity criteria (ctc) 1999.). | Up to 19 weeks |
