Summary

Oral mucositis (OM) one of the most significant acute toxicity of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT). There is already scientific evidence suporting OM the use of: low-level laser therapy (LLLT), cryotherapy (in autologous HSCT when conditioning regimens include high-dose melphalan), and keratinocyte growth factor (in autologous HSCT with high-dose chemotherapy associated with RT). In this sense, an alternative treatment becomes necessary. Based on the preliminary results of the phase I study, a double-blind, randomized phase II study is suggested to evaluate the effectiveness of copaiba-based mouthwash in the prevention of oral mucositis in HSCT was proposed. Patients will be randomized into 2 groups: A (copaíba) and B (placebo) and will use the mouthwash 4x/day. Each group will have 38 patients and be blind to the group in which they are included. They will be evaluated daily by a dental surgeon about oral mucositis, pain in the oral cavity and oropharynx, and dysphagia and will undergo daily laser therapy sessions, until neutropenic recovery.
