About this study

Official title: Detection of Salivary 8-Hydroxy-2-Deoxyguanosine and Total Antioxidant Capacity in Patients With Oral Premalignant and Malignant Lesions

Objectives: Investigating the level of salivary 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in oral premalignant and malignant lesions in order to determine their diagnostic value for the malignant patients. Design: 120 subjects diagnosed with oral leukoplakia, oral lichen planus (OLP) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) along with healthy control subjects were included. Salivary samples from all participants were collected. 8-OHdG was measured by ELISA technique and the TAC level was assessed by a photometric test system.

Read the detailed description

Detection of molecular markers in saliva is superior to their detection in serum and other body fluids due to the fact of being an easy non-invasive tool requiring no training for its collection. Consequently, the aim of our work was to investigate salivary 8-OHdG and TAC in premalignant and malignant patients compared to normal subjects and to determine their diagnostic value for the malignant patients.

Methodology:

Study population:

A total of 120 subjects were enrolled in the present study. The clinically tested and confirmed subjects included Group A: 30 patients diagnosed with oral leukoplakia Group B: 30 patients suffering from oral lichen planus Group C: 30 patients having oral squamous cell carcinoma with the tongue being the most commonly affected site Group D: 30 age and gender matched individuals having no oral mucosal lesions acting as a control group.

Comprehensive oral diagnosis was done for all participating individuals. Biopsy specimens were obtained from various lesions where a surgical double wedge incisional biopsy was carried out to a depth of about 2mm. Specimens were sent for histopathological examination to confirm the clinical diagnosis.

Salivary sample collection: Collection of whole unstimulated saliva from all participants was performed using standard techniques.Subjects refrained from eating, drinking, chewing gum etc., for at least ½ h before the evaluation.Samples were collected by asking individuals to swallow first, tilt their head forward and expectorate all saliva in a tube for 5 minutes without swallowing. After collection, all samples were immediately stored at -20ºC until assayed.

Detection of salivary 8-OHdG: Saliva was centrifuged for 5 minutes at 5000 x g. The supernatant was removed for determination of 8- hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine using an ELISA kit provided by BioVision, USA (Catalog # K4160-100). 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine is an oxidized derivative of deoxyguanosine and is one of the major products of DNA oxidation.

Determination of salivary total antioxidative status/capacity (TAS/TAC) was done using ImAnOx (TAS/TAC) Kit provided by Immun Diagnostik, Germany. It is a photometric test system used for the determination of the total antioxidative status/capacity in EDTA-plasma, serum and other biological samples.

The determination of the antioxidative capacity was performed by the reaction of antioxidants in the sample with a defined amount of exogenously provided hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The antioxidants in the sample eliminate a certain amount of the provided H2O2. The residual H2O2 was determined photometrically by an enzymatic reaction which involves the conversion of TMB to a colored product. After addition of a stop solution, the samples were measured at 450 nm in a microtiter plate reader. The quantification was performed by the delivered calibrator. The difference between applied and measured peroxide concentration in a defined time period is proportional to the reactivity of the antioxidants of the sample (antioxidative capacity). Quantification was performed with the enclosed calibrator.

What is being measured

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

  1. Salivary 8-OHdG

    8-OHdG have a critical role in the pathogenesis of malignant lesions

    Measured: 1 year

  2. salivary TAC

    OSCC might be used as a tool to help diagnosis of OSCC but not to differentiate between various malignant grades

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Premalignant Lesion, run by Fayoum University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. 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?

Salivary 8-OHdG (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 20 Feb 2019.
