Shining a light on cancer Kids' pain: study tests gentle therapy for agonizing mouth sores

NCT ID NCT06623305

Summary

This study aims to see if a gentle light therapy can prevent and treat painful mouth sores (mucositis) in children receiving cancer treatment. Researchers will enroll 50 children and compare those receiving the light therapy every other day during hospital stays to past patients who did not receive it. The main goals are to see if the treatment is practical and acceptable for kids and if it helps reduce the pain, severity, and duration of these sores.
