SAMITAL did not significantly reduce the incidence of severe mucositis in all studied populations. However, the lower rate of mucositis, together with a significantly better quality of life, suggested that a clinical benefit existed. This trial is registered with the EU Clinical Trials Register database, number 2012-002046-20, and with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT01941992.
