Abstract
A single palifermin injection during the weekend gap before or during fractionated irradiation is as effective as three applications. Onset of the palifermin treatment during the first weekend gap between fractionated irradiation is more effective than during the weekend before radiotherapy. The effect of palifermin on oral mucositis can be increased by three weekly injections, while four injections do not yield a further increase in ED50.
