About this study

Official title: Verification of Saliva MMP-1 as a Strong Diagnostic Marker of Oral Cavity Cancer

The study is designed to measure salivary matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) we developed previously in patients with oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMD), oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), and healthy participants. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential of the newly developed salivary MMP-1 ELISA as an adjunctive tool to aid in diagnosis of OSCC.

Being tested
MMP-1 Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
Keywords
Mouth Neoplasms, Head and Neck Neoplasms

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensitivity and Specificity (both range from 0 to 1, the higher the better) of salivary MMP-1 levels as a diagnostic marker for OSCC

    Measured: 30 days from initial sample obtained for this study

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. ROC analysis of non-cancer group versus OSCC patients to find the optimal cutoff as the maximum of Youden's index (calculated as sensitivity + specificity - 1 and ranges from 0 to 1, the higher the better)

    Measured: 30 days from initial sample obtained for this study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma, run by S&T Biomed Co., Ltd. at 2 sites in Taiwan.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 28 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Taiwan. 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?

Sensitivity and Specificity (both range from 0 to 1, the higher the better) of salivary MMP-1 levels as a diagnostic marker for OSCC (time frame: 30 days from initial sample obtained for this study). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05049408, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Sep 2021.
