Sensitivity and Specificity of Serum and Salivary CYFRA21-1 in the Detection of Malignant Transformation in Oral Potentially Malignant Mucosal Lesions (Diagnostic Accuracy Study)

Conditions
Oral Potentially Malignant Lesions
Oral Cancer
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
Registration Number
NCT03686020
Lead Sponsor
Cairo University
Brief Summary

The study is designed to measure serum and salivary CYFRA21-1 levels using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in patients with oral malignancy, oral potentially malignant lesions, and control subjects to evaluate the potential of CYFRA21-1 as a diagnostic marker for malignant transformation in potentially malignant oral mucosal lesions.
