tduggan, I am very sorry to hear about your son-in-law and I hope he makes a speedy recovery after his medical procedures. I agree with biodoc it is much too early to know whether B-OM is preventative, palliative, or curative. What we do know is that an Harvard expert on OM, Dr. Sonis, who conducted 2 animal studies using B-OM, stated that Brilacidn-OM's ability "to mitigate [the use of this word hints at palliative]ulcerative mucositis in preclinical studies is significant and exciting."

"Significant and exciting", which sounds very promising, is still a very long, long way from FDA approval. The chance for a new drug to make it to market is approximately 1 in 5,000.

The poster, purpleheart, informed me about an organization that you may find useful: Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer (MASCC)and I have included a link for their webpage that contains links to useful articles (for free) about the care and management of oral mucositis. I hope you find this helpful. Good Luck to you and your son-in-law.
