- 主要终点
- Average oral and pharyngeal pain score (Numerical Rating Scale, NRS) at 1-hour post-first dose, compared between treatment arms to assess non-inferiority. Esketamine mouthwash will be declared non-inferior if the upper bound of the two-sided 95% confidence interval for the difference (mouthwash – IV) is < 1.3 NRS points.

次要结局
- Number and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs), graded using CTCAE v5.0, during the treatment period.
- Change in average oral and pharyngeal pain score (NRS) from baseline to end of treatment.
- Daily assessment of oral intake and use of tube feeding or parenteral nutrition, summarized at end of treatment.
- Scores on the Daily Oral Mucositis Questionnaire (DOMQ), assessed daily and summarized at end of treatment.
- Frequency, severity, and type of local and systemic side effects, as reported by patients using a standardized 4-point Likert-scale questionnaire, completed daily during the treatment period. Clinical staff will also record any observed side effects.
- Total morphine-equivalent dose administered during the treatment period.
- Total number of hospital days from randomization to discharge.
- Total number of treatment days completed (length of treatment), number of missed doses or pauses (breaks in treatment), and documentation of early termination or discontinuation including reasons.
- Plasma concentrations of esketamine and norketamine at predefined time points, analyzed to assess systemic exposure and metabolism for each administration route.
