HRQoL in Patients With Solid Tumors Treated With Hadrontherapy
The Quality of Life of patients treated with hadrontherapy is still limited. Two cohorts are established, they will be receiving specific standardized questionnaires to be evalutaed in their results.
Microbiome in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This study aims to determine whether dysbiosis actively contributes to HNSCC and if so, the underlying molecular mechanisms.
SUper-Resolution Ultrasound Imaging of Erythrocytes (SURE) in Normal and Malignant Lymph Nodes
The goal of this observational study is to visualize the small vessels in normal and cancerous lymph nodes on the neck with a new ultrasound technique. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is it possible to visualize the network of the smallest vessels in lymph nodes on the …
The Role of Circulating Tumour DNA in Head and Neck Cancer
Cancers of the throat, oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC), are highly prevalent across Scotland. Over the past 10 years, both global and Scottish cases of OPSCC have increased, particularly those associated with human papillomavirus (HPV). However there has been little change in techniques for diagnosis and monitoring. Although imaging technologies …
Reflectance Confocal Microscopy of Oral Cancers in Vivo: a Preliminary Trial Comparing Intra-oral Imaging With Pathology
The purpose of this study is to get images (pictures) of oral lesions, which occur inside the mouth, before the patient's surgery using a special camera. These pictures will be used in our research to evaluate a new technology that uses a laser and takes pictures of the microscopic structure …
Lung Ultrasound Score After ENT Cancer Surgery
After ENT cancer surgery, postoperative respiratory complications are common, especially after tracheostomy. The objective of this study is to characterize the pulmonary status of patients after ENT cancer surgery. We wish to collect and analyze the pulmonary abnormalities revealed by the ultrasound scans performed in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU), …
The Clinical, Epidemiological and Treatment Characteristics of Head and Neck Cancer Patients
The aim of our study is to prospectively collect information regarding (1) the demographic, lifestyle-related and clinical characteristics of patients with head and neck cancer and (2) the waiting times to diagnosis and therapy, and the 1-, 3- and 5-year survival of patients. We plan to gain insight into the …
99mTc Labeled FAP Targeted Molecular Probe in Early Diagnosis of Tumors
At present, radiopharmaceuticals targeting FAP have been developed for the diagnosis and treatment of various tumors. Considering the problems of fast tumor tissue clearance and short retention time in small molecule FAP inhibitors based on quinoline rings, this project optimized their ligands and developed a new FAP targeted technetium labeled …
Patient-derived Xenograft Models of Tumor From Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
The investigators want to have a collection of fresh primary or recurrent tumor tissue for establishment of patients-derived xenografts in order to: generate a biobank of in vivo patient xenografts representing the different subgroups of tumors for head and neck cancer perform genetic and transcriptional profiling of the primary, metastatic …
Immune Response in Cervical Lymph Nodes of Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
Objective The aim of this study is to characterize the inflammatory response in patients with head and neck cancer. More specifically, the study intend to investigate inflammatory and genetic differences between the primary tumor, the sentinel lymph node, and other regional lymph nodes. The investigator also aim to assess how …
