Trial summary

This research may help dentists or surgeons to better detect areas in the mouth that are either prone to cancer or are early cancers. The earlier the detection on cancer in the mouth, the better the chance that treatment or prevention can be more effective. Read more about this study

About this study

This research may help dentists or surgeons to better detect areas in the mouth that are either prone to cancer or are early cancers. The earlier the detection on cancer in the mouth, the better the chance that treatment or prevention can be more effective.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. to investigate whether the use of a fluorescent light in the mouth can detect precancers or early cancers that are not seen on normal clinical examination.

    The first purpose of this activity is to investigate whether the use of a fluorescent light in the mouth can detect precancers or early cancers that are not seen on normal clinical examination.

    Measured: Once at time of consent (day 1)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The second purpose is to collect other samples from the mouth in hopes to identify changes in the proteins and/or genes that will help identify how cancers start in the mouth.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

to investigate whether the use of a fluorescent light in the mouth can detect precancers or early cancers that are not seen on normal clinical examination. (time frame: Once at time of consent (day 1)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Apr 2023.
