Clinical research leads to innovation and success
Clinical efficacy in preventing and treating radiation dermatitis
After a number of successful clinical studies, StrataXRT has proven to be safe and highly efficient in preventing and treating radiation dermatitis. Furthermore it is easy to use for health care professionals and patients alike.
“easy to apply in the early stages of treatment”
“Cost analysis showed a saving for the MNCCI budget in the areas of nursing hours performing wound care and supply of materials to patients”
“ease of use for staff and patients”
Radiation induced skin reactions: is StrataXRT more effective in the prevention and management of Radiation induced skin reactions (RISR) than standard care?

“using this silicone gel for the prevention and treatment of radiation dermatitis, showed low reactionary scores with minimal radiation dermatitis compared to our observed standard. RTOG 3 was completely prevented in the StrataXRT group.”
“The use of StrataXRT can reduce radiation dermatitis with respect to objectively measured physiological skin parameters.”

StrataXRT® cost-effectiveness vs. Sorbolene® (10% Glycerine) in head and neck cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy
“This study was the first trial-based economic evaluation of interventions for radiation dermatitis and highlighted the importance of undertaking robust economic evaluations to assist healthcare managers in resource allocation decisions. […]. Practical clinical implications could include use of StrataXRT® for radiation dermatitis in other anatomically challenging areas affected by radiation.”
“StrataXRT ® is superior to Sorbolene® in preventing, delaying, and reducing severity of skin toxicity.”

StrataXRT for the prevention of acute radiation dermatitis in breast cancer
“StrataXRT® is effective in preventing grade 3 radiation dermatitis in patients, and the most promising results were observed within the prone cohort.”
“The gel was applied after every episode of toileting. Throughout and following the course of radiotherapy, the patient was completely free of radiation dermatitis, to the surprise of her radiation oncologist.”

StrataXRT® Effectiveness in Preventing Radiotherapy-Induced Dermatitis in Breast Cancer
“StrataXRT® silicone gel compared to the control group significantly prevented and reduced the rate of radiation-induced dermatitis in the patients with breast cancer that peaked at the fifth week of treatment.”
“We believe that the application of StrataXRT® facilitated healing by re-epithelialisation, acted as a barrier preventing transepidermal water loss and protected the injured fragile skin from friction injuries. […] We found favourable treatment results with the use of the silicone dressing gel demonstrated as early effective healing with no residual hypertrophic scars.”

StrataXRT® - An Innovative Film-Forming Wound Dressing for Radiation Dermatitis during ongoing radiation therapy
“The use of the innovative film-forming wound dressing for radiation dermatitis treatment shows first time evidence of improving the RISRAS score during ongoing radiation therapy, showing major improvements in patients’ quality of life.”
“StrataXRT may help prevent severe acute radiation dermatitis in breast cancer radiotherapy patients.”

The Use of an Innovative Film-Forming Wound Dressing in the Treatment of Radiation Dermatitis during Concomitant Chemotherapy
“In all cases described, the studied wound dressing served as a self-leveling and film-forming dressing preventing trans-epidermal water loss and enabled a moist wound healing environment that is known to promote faster reepithelialisation and reduce the skin’s acute inflammatory response.”
