About

This is a randomized, open-label, single-institution trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of a spray skin protector in preventing moist desquamation caused by radiotherapy treatment.

This technology, spray skin protection, depending on the manufacturer, is primarily intended to prevent or reduce contact dermatitis. However, this study will be evaluated for use in preventing moist desquamation caused by ionizing radiation. The comparing agent will be a moisturizer, agreed upon at the local Institution of the study for use in the prevention of radiodermatitis. As secondary objectives: describe adverse events, diarrhea, pain and pruritus.

The study will be conducted at the radiotherapy outpatient clinic of the Cancer Hospital I (HCI) of National Cancer Institute (INCA) in Brazil.

Full description

The hypotheses are:

Null (Ho): The incidence of moist desquamation with the spray skin protector is greater than or equal to the incidence of moist desquamation in the control group.

Alternative (H1): The incidence of moist desquamation with the spray skin protector is lower than the incidence of moist desquamation in the control group.

The evaluation of the skin of the participants will be weekly, with blinding of this professional. For the evaluation of secondary objectives, adverse events will be applied in the assessment scales of diarrhea, pruritus and pain by the CTCAE version 5.0; and the burning or burning sensation will be recorded only.
