Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Study on the Carcinogenesis of SOX-9 in Oral Cancer, and Chemopreventive Possibility for the Treatment of Oral Cancer Using SOX-9 Inhibitor.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

To find out if there is prognostic value which to the performance of SOX-9 of oral cancer in Taiwan and provide some reference for future treatment.

We anticipate to enroll 40 persons with normal oral mucosa, 65 persons with oral dysplasia and 150 persons with oral cancer and collect the tissue which was stained for pathological sections over a 3 year period.

We also collect the blood and saliva samples from patients and the results along with patient-specific information such as tumor phases, tumor size, lymph node metastasis, cancer metastasis, prognosis and betel nut chewing, smoking and drinking habits and other parameters are statistically analyzed.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Normal team

Subjects who have problem at third molar of impacted tooth need to receive a surgery with general anesthesia.

Subjects must:

Should have a blood exam (20ml) before the surgery.

Site staff must:

Collect subjects' saliva once a day (in the morning before breakfast) for 3 consecutive days.

Collect a 0.5x0.5Cm2 tissue sample around third molar during the surgery.

No interventions assigned to this group

Oral dysplasia

Subjects who are diagnosed with dysplasia of oral cavity.

Subjects must:

Should have a blood exam (20ml/each time) before the surgery and 3 months after the surgery.

In the case the disease recurs after the surgery, subjects need to receive the surgery again and take another blood exam before the surgery and 3 months after the surgery.

Before the surgery site staff must:

Collect saliva once a day (in the morning before breakfast) for 3 consecutive days.

Collect a 0.5x0.5Cm2 tissue sample of the tumor during the surgery.

No interventions assigned to this group

Oral cancer

Subjects who suffer from oral cancer.

Subjects must:

Should have a blood exam (20ml/each time) before the surgery and 3 months after the surgery.

In the case the disease recurs after the surgery, subjects need to receive the surgery again and take another blood exam before the surgery and 3 months after the surgery.

Before the surgery site staff must:

Collect subjects' saliva once a day (in the morning before breakfast) for 3 consecutive days.

Collect a 0.5x0.5Cm2 tissue sample of the tumor during the surgery.

No interventions assigned to this group
