Dilute bleach compresses to reduce the severity of radiation dermatitis in children with cancer (PeDRA)

Project: Research project

Project Details

Description

This study will be a two-site study at Northwestern/Lurie Children’s (Paller, Vivar, Yun, etc) and Harvard/Boston’s Children’s (Huang). We envision starting the compressing 1-week before and continuing daily during the danger period (several weeks). We have joined forces with radiation oncologists at both sites already and hope to recruit approximately equal numbers of patients at both sites. Parallel studies in children and adults will be performed. We are still completing protocol development at this time.
