A Fluorescent Tumor Marking Agent, Tozuleristide, for Imaging Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Cancer and High-Grade Oral Cavity Dysplasia During Surgery
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects of tozuleristide in imaging oral cavity squamous cell cancer and high-grade oral cavity dysplasia during surgery. Tozuleristide is an imaging agent that specifically binds to tumor cells. When exposed to near-infrared light, tozuleristide causes tumor cells to fluoresce (light up), so that …
Personalized Neck Radiation Therapy Directed by Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy for the Treatment of Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Carcinoma, PRECEDENT Trial
This phase II trial studies how well personalized neck radiation therapy directed by sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) works in treating patients with oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC). SLNB can be performed as part of standard care for OCSCC. During SLNB, a radiotracer is injected around the tumor. The …
A Study of Sacituzumab Govitecan in Combination With Cetuximab in People With Head and Neck Squamous Cell Cancer (HNSCC)
The purpose of this study to find out whether sacituzumab govitecan in combination with cetuximab is an effective and safe treatment approach for people with recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC).
Customized 3D Printed Oral Stents During Head and Neck Radiotherapy
This clinical trial studies the effect of customized 3 dimensional (3D) printed oral tents on patients with head and neck cancer who are receiving radiotherapy. Oral stents are made from the impression of patients' mouth and cover patients' teeth and gums during radiation therapy. A customized, 3D-printed oral stent may …
Fluorescence-guided Surgery Using CRGD-ZW800-1 in Oral Cancer
This is a two-staged clinical trial to investigate the feasibility of intraoperative Fluorescence Imaging (FLI) to adequately assess tumor margins in patients with oral cancer using cRGD-ZW800-1.
Oral Cancer Screening for Early Detection of Premalignant Disorders (PMOD)
Cancer is a complex disease; its different causes and types have a strong impact on patient treatment and prognosis. To improve understanding of the disease, its causes and progression, the investigators will develop a simple, cost-effective system for continuous control of mucosal lesions with non-invasive brush biopsy that can be …
Fenretinide Mucoadhesive Patch: Evaluation of Oral Cancer Prevention Efficacy in Adults With Premalignant Oral Lesions.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of a mucoadhesive system that releases the vitamin A derivative, fenretinide (FMS), on precancerous surface epithelial (lining tissue inside your mouth) changes. Specifically, does application of the FMS induce specific changes: 1) reduction in the clinical size, 2) reduction …
Pioglitazone-Metformin Combination Treatment for High Risk Oral Preneoplasia
This is a Phase IIa oral cavity leukoplakia study of pioglitazone 15mg and metformin 500mg BID for 12 weeks. The primary objective is to determine the clinical and histologic changes of leukoplakia from baseline following a 12 week course of twice daily pioglitazone-metformin. Outcomes are defined as are a reduction …
Assessment of the Effect of Tumor Thickness and Site on Level IV Cervical Lymph Nodes in Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Tongue and Floor of the Mouth: A Case Series Study
Regarding oral cavity cancer, the high incidence of neck metastasis along with its impact on survival and prognosis are in favor of elective neck dissection. Moreover, occult metastases could develop at lower levels in the neck (levels IV-V) Regarding the tongue, the rate of skip (occult) metastasis involving unremoved level …
Copaíba-based Mouthwash in Oral Mucotitis Prevention and Treatment in Oral Cancer Patients During Radioteraphy
Oral mucositis is the most significant acute toxicity of oral cavity radiotherapy. The available scientific evidence supports its preventive and therapeutic approach with low-level laser; however, this is unsuitable for tumor regions due to the risk of stimulating cellular metabolism. In this sense, an alternative treatment becomes necessary. Based on …
