Single Modality Trans Oral Robotic Surgery for Primary Oropharyngeal Cancer: Exploring the Impact...
Head and Neck Squamous Cell CarcinomaRetrospective observational cohort study investigating Single modality Trans Oral Robotic surgery for primary oropharyngeal cancer: exploring the impact of surgical Margins on local disease recurrence.
Evaluating Mutations in MET and TP53 Among Patients Diagnosed With Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the LungSquamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and NeckThis study focuses on advanced lung and head and neck SCC tumours, with adjacent normal lung tissues. Biopsies will be performed in National University Health System, Singapore (NUHS) as part of participants' standard care. Patient blood was also required for extraction of cell free DNA (cfDNA) and genomic DNA (gDNA). Patients' medical records will also be reviewed for the purpose of this study.
Developing an In-vitro Diagnostic Risk-Stratification Test for Oral Cancer
Oral Squamous Cell CarcinomaThe purpose of this study is to verify the discriminatory value of previously identified salivary transcriptome and proteome markers for oral squamous cell cancer in an intended use population of patients with oral lesions suspicious for cancer.
Immune Response Evaluation to Curative Conventional Therapy
Head and Neck Squamous Cell CarcinomaThe IRECT trial is a non-interventional, prospective clinical trial using modern immune monitoring techniques over the course of the standard of care for HNSCC. The dynamics of host/tumor immune interactions during the conventional standard treatment will be analyzed to find the most promising target antigen and to develop a strategy how and when specific immunotherapy should be added to the current treatment schedule. The results from this trial will help to understand how state of the art treatment can be complemented using cancer-testis antigen specific vaccines and immune-modulating drugs to improve the outcome of head and neck cancer patients.
Collection of Plasma Samples for Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck Patients
Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and NeckThe investigators will collect plasma samples at baseline, during treatment, and at progression.
