Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this cancer control clinical research study is to evaluate whether nutritional therapy with Serum-derived bovine immunoglobulin/protein isolate (SBI) might reduce mucositis (a condition caused by cancer treatment involving mouth sores, pain and/or bleeding that may cause difficulty eating), improve nutritional status and lessen the symptoms associated with chemo-radiation therapy which may result in quality of life (QOL) improvements during the prescribed treatment for cancer therapy.

Arms and Interventions

Arm	Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Nutritional therapy Serum-derived bovine immunoglobulin/protein isolate (SBI) 10.0 grams once daily	Dietary Supplement: SBI; Serum-derived Bovine immunoglobulin/protein isolate 10.0 g once daily
Placebo Comparator: Placebo Hydrolyzed gelatin 10.0 grams once daily	Dietary Supplement: Placebo; Hydrolyzed gelatin 10.0 g once daily

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

1. Development of Oral Mucositis during ChemoRadiation Treatment [Baseline and Up to approximately 90 days after randomization]

   CTCAE version 5 will be used to determine adverse event grade of mucositis, if applicable

Secondary Outcome Measures

1. Development of Dysphagia during ChemoRadiation Treatment [Baseline and Up to approximately 90 days after randomization]

   CTCAE version 5 will be used to determine advent grade of dysphagia, if applicable

2. Change in Bowel Movements [Baseline and Up to approximately 90 days after randomization]

   Stool Diary Card will be completed by patient to document consistency, ease and completeness
