Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Palifermin

The patients belong to this arm will be given palifermin, keratinocyte growth factor, in addition to the conventional supportive care for oral mucositis. Palifermin will be given at a dose of 60 mcg/kg for 3 days before commencement of the preparative regimen and for 3 days after stem cell infusion

Drug: Palifermin

Placebo Comparator: Normal saline

The patients belong to this arm will be given normal saline as placebo plus conventional supportive care for oral mucositis. Normal saline will be given at the same volume and schedule with the study drug.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Duration of severe oral mucositis after stem cell transplantation [5 weeks]

    from onset of severe oral mucositis till resolution of the mucositis or 28 days after stem cell transplantation

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Incidence of severe oral mucositis after stem cell transplantation [5 weeks]

    from onset of severe oral mucositis till resolution of the mucositis or 28 days after stem cell transplantation

  2. Average VAS score during severe oral mucositis [5 weeks]

    from onset of severe oral mucositis till resolution of the mucositis or 28 days after stem cell transplantation

  3. Requirement of opioid drugs during severe oral mucositis [5 weeks]

    from onset of severe oral mucositis till resolution of the mucositis or 28 days after stem cell transplantation

  4. Requirement of opioid drugs [5 weeks]

    from onset of severe oral mucositis till resolution of the mucositis or 28 days after stem cell transplantation

  5. Cost effectiveness of palifermin during stem cell transplantation [5 weeks]

    from admission for stem cell transplantation to discharge

  6. Quality of life during transplant period [5 weeks]

    1 week before stem cell infusion to discharge
