What was measured

The total dose of opioid analgesics (mg of intravenous \[IV\] morphine equivalents) used by all participants. Participants with at least one reported administration of opioid analgesic (parenteral, peroral or transdermal) were considered to have received opioid analgesics. The total dose of opioid analgesics is the sum of all opioid analgesic administrations that have been converted to morphine equivalents.

Groups in this outcome

Placebo

Participants received a single IV dose of placebo three days before the start of radiotherapy, and then 7 once weekly placebo doses during a 7-week radiotherapy/chemotherapy course.

Palifermin

Participants received a single intravenous dose of palifermin at 180 μg/kg three days before the start of radiotherapy, and then 7 once weekly palifermin doses at the same dose level during a 7-week radiotherapy/chemotherapy course.
