The purpose of this study is to learn if virgin coconut oil (VCO) mouth rinse can help prevent oral mucositis. The Study Investigator will compare standard of care mucositis prevention rinses with the VCO mouth rinse added to the standard of care mucositis prevention rinses. The severity of oral mucositis between the 2 groups will be evaluated. Some of the standard of care rinses that can be used to prevent mucositis are normal saline, Benadryl (diphenhydramine), Mylanta, lidocaine, or other combinations.
This is a randomized, open-label study. The target population is patients ≥ 7 years to 26 years at time of consent who are planning to undergo myeloablative conditioning regimens in preparation HSCT. The study will be conducted at Levine Children's Hospital, Levine Children's Cancer and Blood Disorders Clinic and Atrium Health. Subjects will be screened and consented within 28 days prior to admission. The planned treatment period for Arm A (standard of care with the addition of VCO mouth rinses) or Arm B (standard of care) will begin at the start of subject's admission for conditioning, followed by transplant event with day of transplant defined as Day 0 and continue through Day +45 following transplant or hospital discharge, whichever comes first. A Safety Follow Up Visit will occur no sooner than 30 days from last study drug treatment

| Severity of Mucositis | Using Area Under the Curve (AUC) of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0 mucositis oral grading scale. This is a 5-point ordered-categorical scale ranging from 1 (asymptomatic or mild symptoms) to 5 (death). For subjects not experiencing oral mucositis, a severity grade of zero will be assigned. | Day 45 |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Average Daily Caloric Intake | Oral intake will be calculated quantitatively for each subject during the on-treatment period. | Day 45 |
| Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) | TPN or hyperalimentation will be calculated quantitatively for each subject as the proportion of days during the on-treatment period that aggressive nutrition support was utilized. |

| Day 45 |
| Opioid Use | Daily opioid use will be calculated quantitatively for each subject in terms of their average Morphine Equivalent Daily Dose (MEDD) | Day 45 |
| Time to CTCAE Mucositis Grade > 2 | The duration of time (in days) from the initiation of study treatment until the day of the first occurrence of a CTCAE mucositis grade exceeding 2. The CTCAE mucositis grade is a 5-point ordered-categorical scale ranging from 1 (asymptomatic or mild symptoms) to 5 (death). For subjects who do not report a grade exceeding 2, time to CTCAE mucositis grade >2 will be censored at the date of the last completed CTCAE evaluation. | Day 45 |
| Daily Incidence of Optional Mouth Rinses | Proportion of days during the on-treatment period that optional oral rinse was used. | Day 45 |
| Incidence and type of oral viral infections | Incidence and type of oral viral infections | Day 45 |
| Length of Hospitalization | Length of stay will be calculated for each subject as the number of days from admission date to discharge date +1. | Day 45 |
| Days to Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) Engraftment | Days to engraftment will be calculated for each subject as the number of days from Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) to ANC recovery per Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplantation Research (CIBMTR) definition | Day 45 |
