The Role of microRNA-29b in the Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

• Conditions: Oral Cancer

• Registration Number: NCT02009852
• Lead Sponsor: National Taiwan University Hospital

Brief Summary

The Role of microRNA-29b in the Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Detailed Description

To find out if there is prognostic value which to the performance of microRNA-29b of oral cancer in Taiwan and provide some reference for future treatment.

We anticipate to enroll 100 persons with oral cancer and collect the tissue which was stained for pathological sections over a 3 year period.

We also collect the blood and saliva samples from patients and the results along with patient-specific information such as tumor phases, tumor size, lymph node metastasis, cancer metastasis, prognosis and betel nut chewing, smoking and drinking habits and other parameters are statistically analyzed.
