Trial design: a randomized controlled trial. Eligibility criteria for participants: patients with primary early stage oral squamous cell carcinoma. Exclusion criteria: cancer of the floor of the mouth. Interventions: submandibular gland is preserved during neck dissection for patients of the experimental group; submandibular gland is removed during neck dissection for …
In this prospective study, the investigators will use integrated PET/CT with the agent 68Ga-FAPI and conventional imaging agent 18F-FDG to explore the application value of FAP-targeted molecular imaging in the diagnosis and staging for oral cancer. This study also aims to explore the application value of FAPI imaging in evaluating …
The main objective of this paper will be to evaluate the rate of malignant transformation among a cohort of patients affected by oral lichen planus with long-term follow-up. Secondary aims will be to study and describe the characteristics of these patients to identify potential risk factors for malignant transformation, and …
Oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) are chronic pathologies which can suffer dysplastic alterations and evolve into oral cancer. The diagnosis of those pathologies is commonly done by visual inspection, which is not capable of determining the presence or not of dysplasia. Furthermore, this type of diagnosis depends greatly on the …
Background: Oral cancer radical surgery often requires free flap reconstruction. Postoperative pain is severe, and traditional opioids like sufentanil have side effects and may adversely affect tumor biology. Dezocine and nalbuphine are opioid agonist-antagonists with potentially better safety profiles. Their comparative effects on analgesia, complications, and flap survival in oral …
The aim 1 of this trial is the development of the Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) definition of oral cancer minimal residual disease (MRD), and aim 2 is a prospective trial of oral cancer treatment. If this trial is successful, it is expected that it may be able to provide a …
Based on the recently identified mutations in HNSCCs, the major pathologic pathways implicated in the tumorigenesis of HNSCC include dysregulation of four processes: cellular survival and proliferation (e.g., TP53, EGFR, MET, and PIK3CA); cell-cycle control (e.g., CDKN2A and CCND1); cellular differentiation (e.g., NOTCH1); and Adhesion and invasion signaling (e.g., FAT1).7 …
This study will fill a scientific gap in the current knowledge providing data for evaluation of the palatal augmentation prosthesis (PAP) as a therapeutic modality post-surgery. This is a robust scientific randomized prospective clinical trial. Positive outcomes from this study have the potential to dramatically alter the most common issues …
The goal of this clinical trial is to improve the surgical treatment of patients with oral cancer. We will explore whether the use of surgeon performed ultrasound during these surgeries result in better tumor removal. We hypothesize that using intraoperative ultrasound to assist the resection results in more frequent clear …
This study is being done to determine whether adding a proactive tongue strengthening exercise program using a biofeedback device (the Tongueometer) improves speech and swallowing outcomes after surgery for tongue cancer. Patients who undergo partial or hemiglossectomy often experience difficulties with speech and swallowing, which can significantly impact their quality …
