简要总结
Due to the increasing number and prolonged survival of malignant tumor patients treated with radiotherapy, the complication, such as acute radiation-induced intestinal injury, has become increasingly significant. Glucocorticoids may play a therapeutic role by regulating the inflammatory response in patients with acute radiation-induced intestinal injury. However, the conclusions of related studies were controversial.
详细描述
A total of 60 patients with acute radiation-induced intestinal injury will be enrolled. They will be randomly assigned at a 1:1 ratio into glucocorticoid group and standard treatment group. The primary endpoint is the recovery and improvement of acute radiation-induced intestinal injury. The secondary study endpoints include the recurrence and aggravation of radiation-induced intestinal injury, and adverse events.

结局指标
主要结局
Recovery and/or improvement
时间窗: 3 months
1. If patients' clinical symptoms, including abdominal pain, diarrhea, and hematochezia, and intestinal mucosal lesions under endoscopy disappear, the recovery will be defined. 2. If patients' clinical symptoms alleviate, and/or the Vienna scores evaluated by endoscopy decrease at least 1 point, the improvement will be defined. The total number and frequency of patients who have both recovery and improvement of radiation-induced intestinal injury after treatment is calculated as the treatment efficacy.
次要结局
- Recurrence and/or aggravation(1 year)
- Adverse events(1 year)
