Oral mucositis is one of the most spread side effects of anticancer therapy. It is associated with both chemo- and radiotherapy, decreases QoL, relative dose intensity and leads to nutritive deficiency. Oral mucositis causes secondary infections, increased hospital stay, whereas pain syndrome results in an emotional distress, anorexia and disables natural feeding.
Primary: To evaluate the efficacy of ONCOXIN on oral mucositis symptoms in patients who receive chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Secondary: To evaluate the effects of ONCOXIN on nutritional status in patients who receive chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy.

Oral mucositis grade in patients during chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments
Efficacy of OCOXIN on oral mucositis symptoms in patients who receive chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy with WHO oral toxicity scale grades. The WHO scale is dependent on both objective and subjective variables, and measures anatomical, symptomatic as well as functional components of oral mucositis. WHO Oral Mucositis Grading Scale: * 0 (none): None * I (mild): Oral soreness, erythema * II (moderate): Oral erythema, ulcers, solid diet tolerated * III (severe): Oral ulcers, liquid diet only * IV (life-threatening): Oral alimentation impossible
