NCT ID: NCT04214912 Recruiting - Oral Cancer Clinical Trials

Personalized Survivor Care Plan for Oral Cancer Patients-Effects on Physical-Psychological Functions and Return-to-Work

Start date: December 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Background: Due to the complex treatment modalities and long-term side effects, oral cancer (OC) patients might suffer from psychological and physical distress and be unable to return to work (RTW). Purposes: This is a two-phase study. First, the investigator aims to validate a scale about OC patients' perception of RTW and identify those concerns in RTW. Second, the investigator aims to (1) develop the contents of a "Personalized Survivorship Care Plan- Oral Cavity Cancer (PSCP-OC)" and (2) examine the short and long-term effects of PSCP-OC on patients' physical function (symptoms, muscle strengths, fitness, nutrition status), psychological distress (depression, fear of cancer recurrence) and RTW. Method: First phase, the investigator will modify and validate the "Illness Perception Questionnaire (IPQ)" with adding the head and neck cancer specific items (modified IPQ-mHN) to assess the barriers of RTW in OC patients. The investigator will recruit 300 subjects in this phase to test the IPQ-mHN psychometrics. The second and third year will develop and test the PSCP-OC intervention. Eligible subjects will be (1) newly diagnosed OC patients with surgery, and (2) who are at work in time of diagnosis. A stratified randomization by cancer stage would be conducted. Both groups will receive baseline assessment before first intervention. PSCP-OC is a 6-month intervention which includes two parts: General module and Personalized module (150 subjects for each group). Ex group will receive the first PSCP-OC before discharge and 3 times face-to-face PSCP-OP once a month in the first three month after discharge and 3 times telephone physical-psycho-education interventions in month 4-6. Control group will receive regular and cancer case manager cares for 6 months. Each group will be followed for 12 months and assess of their outcomes at 6 time points: baseline (pre-discharge) and 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery. Outcomes will be evaluated by physical distress, muscle strength, nutrition status, and length of time of RTW since completion of last major treatment. Results would be analyzed mainly by GEE. IRB approval will be received before the RCT. Expected Outcome: Expecting to develop a scale to identify those barriers preventing OC patients' RTW and further to test the PSCP. A promising result will further apply into clinical care to prevent or decrease the potential declined physical and psychological functions, increase their strength and help them RTW.

The safety and side effects of this drug will also be studied. This is an investigational study. Gemcitabine is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of pancreatic and lung cancer, and other solid tumors. Its administration by inhalation is investigational. The study doctor can explain how the study drug is designed to work. Up to 44 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.

NCT ID: NCT03017053 Recruiting - Oral Cancer Clinical Trials

The Optimal Neck Treatments Strategy of Early Oral Cancer Based on Adverse Pathological Factor

Start date: July 2016
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Cervical nodal metastasis is the most certain prognostic factor in oral cancer. Appropriate management of the neck is therefore of paramount importance in the treatment of oral cancer. However, there is still some controversy on the treatment of early maxillofacial malignancies. Currently, investigators have no accurate uniform treatment standards, including the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) recommended between surgery and radiotherapy options. Clinical evaluation indicated that lymph node-negative patients eventually 25%-35% had cervical node metastasis. Therefore, for the majority of patients with true node-negative, preventive cervical lymph node dissection is obviously over-treatment, and lower quality of life. Radiotherapy can avoid such surgery.

NCT ID: NCT02902406 Recruiting - Oral Cancer Clinical Trials

Validation of DNA Methylation Biomarkers for Oral Cancer Detection-Follow up Study

Start date: April 18, 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This is a follow up study which aims to evaluate the correlation between several methylated genes (potential biomarkers) and oral cancers. A prospective case control trial is designed with sample size of at least 300 cases with estimated 200 subjects with precancerous lesion or oral cancer, and 100 subjects with normal oral mucosa. This study is approved by the National Taiwan University Hospital Research Ethics Committee. After signing the informed consent, all subjects will receive an intraoral examination and followed by epithelial cells collection with oral swab. The gDNA will be extracted from the oral swab collected cells and followed by bisulfite conversion procedures. Subsequently, bisulfite converted DNA will be subjected to methylated gene detection by Real-Time PCR. The methylation index (clinical sensitivity and specificity) of oral cancer related genes will be evaluated. For diagnosis confirmation, photos and biopsy specimens will be taken upon observation of abnormal lesion.

NCT ID: NCT02866500 Recruiting - Oral Cancer Clinical Trials

Oral State of Patients Affected by an Oral Cancer Before and After Radiotherapy - 3-years Prospective Study

VADS
Start date: January 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Context: the oral cancer is the 5th cancer in order of frequency for human in France. It is the country where the mortality by oral cancer is the most raised in Europe. The most frequent location concerns the oral cavity prevalency of which is one of higher in the world. The main risk factors are the tobacco and the alcohol. The oral cancer is treated in the great majority of the cases by radiotherapy which is going to pull xerostomy, responsible for the degradation of the oral state. Furthermore, it will increase the risk of appearance of osteoradionecrosis (ORN) when the patient is carrier of buccal lesions and\or when he will have to undergo surgical acts. Consequently, the initial oral state of the patients is to be estimated so as to eliminate any source of the infection. An unfavourable initial state will increase the risk of degradation of this one and appearance of ORN. However, at present few epidemiological data are available concerning the oral state of the patients presenting an oral cancer. Objective: the main objective of this study is to describe, before radiotherapy, the oral state of the patients presenting an oral cancer and to follow the evolution of this oral state for three years and to register the patients quality of life. The secondary objectives are to describe the distribution of risk factors of the degradation of the oral state (oral hygiene, food habits, xerostomy, consumption of tobacco and alcohol) in this population and to register the impact of the dental restorations on the radiological assessment. Methods: this prospective epidemiological study of observation will be realized in the service of odontology of the Timone hospital (Marseille, France) in association with the services of ORL and maxillofacial surgery of Timone as well as the services of radiotherapy and medical oncology of Timone and Paoli Calmettes institute (IPC). All the toothed patients affected by an oral cancer untreated will be included, or treated surgically only, of more than 18 years old and for whom an initial dental assessment will be realized. The main assessment criteria will be the CAD index and the parodontal state. Expected results and perspectives: This study will allow to have epidemiological data concerning patients' oral state affected by an oral cancer before and after radiotherapy. It will allow to set up a consensus of good practice.

NCT ID: NCT02734537 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Radiation Therapy With or Without Cisplatin in Treating Patients With Stage III-IVA Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck Who Have Undergone Surgery

Start date: November 23, 2016
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial studies how well radiation therapy with or without cisplatin works in treating patients with stage III-IVA squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck who have undergone surgery. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known if radiation therapy is more effective with or without cisplatin in treating patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
