简要总结
The trial is a single-center, non-randomized feasibility study aiming to evaluate the feasibility of ex-vivo tissue analysis using differential mobility spectrometry (DMS) of tissue smoke generated by the use of an electrosurgical instrument.
Patients recruited in the trial receive standard-of-care oral squamous cell carcinoma tumor excision surgery.
详细描述
Oral squamous cell carcinoma is the sixth common carcinoma and the cause of 1-2% of cancer related deaths in the world. The incidence of oral squamous cell carcinoma was 255 cases in Finland and 742 270 cases worldwide in year 2015. The number of cases per year has been increasing. The approximate age of tumor occurrence is usually between 60 - 70 years. The 5-year survival rate of all diagnosed oral squamous cell carcinoma cases in Finland during the years between 2014 and 2016 was 67% for women and 61% for men.
Early diagnostics is relevant, since oral squamous cell carcinoma tumors have a tendency to grow rapidly and metastasize early to regional lymphnodes and later on to lungs, liver and bones. Typical locations of the tumor are tongue, gums and sole of mouth.
The primary treatment option for oral squamous cell carcinoma is surgical removal of the tumor with 0,5 - 1cm healthy tissue margin. The aim of the operation is to remove the tumor entirely so that the healthy tissue margins are as sparing as possible and that the functional and cosmetic outcomes are as satisfactory as possible. Sufficient healthy tissue margin is one of the most important prognostic factors. Nevertheless, there is only little evidence based knowledge of sufficient healthy tissue margins.
Differential mobility spectrometry (DMS) based application called automatic tissue analysis (ATAS) can be utilized to identify tumor cells from healthy tissue. Tissue identification is done by analyzing tissue smoke that is generated by the use of an electrosurgical instrument called diathermy.
The objective of the trial is to test whether it is possible to identify oral squamous cell carcinoma tissue from normal oral mucosa by using ATAS. A 4mm punch biopsy of an oral squamous cell carcinoma tumor and a control biopsy of healthy oral mucosa will be collected from 30 - 40 patients undergoing oral tumor excision. The biopsies will be examined in the research laboratory with ATAS to test tissue recognition.

主要结局
Sensitivity and specificity of normal and cancerous tissue identification by differential mobility spectrometry
时间窗: Through study completion, an average of 1 year
The ATAS device records a molecular spectrum of the surgical smoke generated when the collected tissue samples are processed with an electrosurgical instrument in the research laboratory. The primary outcome of the study is to test the ability of the device to correctly distinguish cancerous tissue from normal tissue based on predicted differences in the spectrum.
次要结局
- The influence of oral squamous cell carcinoma tumor thickness and infiltration depth on the resolution(Through study completion, an average of 1 year)
