Propolis-based Product (FARINGEL PLUS) for Oral Mucositis in Palliative Care

Oral health is crucial for palliative patients' quality of life. The evidence on effective interventions and measures of oral mucositis in palliative care is sparse. This is a single-center, prospective, uncontrolled open label Phase 2 non-profit study, aimed at evaluating a propolis-based product (FARINGEL PLUS) added to basic oral hygiene safety, acceptability and activity in preventing and treating oral mucositis in patients in palliative care. A two-step design was adopted according to Simon's Optimum approach, with an overall sample of 77 evaluable cases (step1\_26 cases; step2\_51 cases).
