Summary

This study tests if a drug called Sapylin, given through an inhaler, can prevent or reduce painful mouth sores caused by chemotherapy and radiation in people with nasopharyngeal cancer.

The goal is to find a safer and more effective way to manage this common side effect and help patients complete their cancer therapy.
