Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Diclofenac Sodium GelPlacebo gel
Diclofenac Sodium Gel: Diclofenac Sodium Gel were applied to the skin of the irradiated site triple a day a day from the date of first radiotherapy until end of radiotherapy or until the test side skin developed ≥grade 3 RID.
Placebo gel: The placebo does not contain the active ingredients of Jalosome, only the co-formulants.
Study summary
Radiation induced dermatitis (RID) is one of the leading adverse events of radiation therapy, and if occurred could alter the course of therapy. The main pathways of RID is inflammation and oxidative stress on local and systemic bases. The Diclofenac is a COX-2 inhibitor and Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs whose anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities have been proven in several clinical trials. Thus, the aim of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy of Diclofenac sodium gel as a prophylactic method against the development of RID.
