• •1. The subject's enrolling investigator must agree to not prescribe any other mouthwash formulations to prevent or treat oral mucositis during protocol-directed treatment (Note: subjects may receive standard of care treatment if the subject develops oral mucositis and discontinues study treatment \[or may crossover to Arm A if randomized to Arm B\]).
