Abstract:
[Objective]To evaluate the efficacy of Shengjin Liyan Spray(SJLYS)in alleviating chemotherapy-induced xerostomia in lymphoma patients.[Methods]In this double-blind,randomized,placebo-controlled trial,120 lymphoma patients with chemotherapy-induced xerostomia were enrolled and equally allocated in experimental group(60 cases,receiving SJLYS)and control group(60 cases,receiving sterile water spray).The intervention was administered hourly during chemotherapy until bedtime.Primary outcomes included the numerical rating scale(NRS)for dry mouth,lip mucosal moisture score and unstimulated whole saliva(UWS)flow rate.Secondary outcome was the overall response rate.[Results]Post-treatment assessments demonstrated significantly better outcomes in experimental group,the NRS score of experimental group(2.41±1.10)was significantly lower than that of control group(4.15±1.28);the moisture score of the lip mucosa was(3.47±0.62)points,which was better than control group(2.60±0.78)points;the UWS was(0.53±0.10)mg/min,higher than that of control group(0.42±0.09)mg/min.The overall response rate in experimental group(78.33%)was markedly superior to control group(48.33%),and the above differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).[Conclusion]SJLYS significantly relieves xerostomia symptoms,enhances oral comfort,and optimizes quality of life in chemotherapy-treated lymphoma patients,demonstrating substantial clinical applicability.
