简要总结
RATIONALE: Aspirin mouthwash may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of aspirin mouthwash in treating patients with oral leukoplakia.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
- To determine if oral topical acetylsalicylic acid mouthwash achieves modulation of COX-1, COX-2, and prostaglandin in oral dysplasia tissues in patients with oral leukoplakia.
- To determine if this drug achieves alteration of histopathology and gene and protein expression in tissue.
- To determine if this drug achieves aspirin-induced tissue changes relating to altered tumor biology.
- To assess local and general tolerability and safety of this drug in these patients.
OUTLINE: All patients undergo tissue biopsy for histological diagnosis. Patients without a histological diagnosis of precancerous oral dysplasia undergo routine follow-up. Patients with a histological diagnosis of precancerous oral dysplasia are sequentially allocated to 1 of 4 treatment groups.
- Group 1: Patients receive acetylsalicylic acid mouthwash (one 75 mg tablet dissolved in 250 mL of water) twice daily for 4-6 weeks, gargling for 60 seconds then expectorate it fully, before planned definitive surgical excision.
- Group 2: Patients receive acetylsalicylic acid mouthwash (two 75 mg tablets of acetylsalicylic acid dissolved in 250 mL of water) twice daily for 4-6 weeks, gargling for 60 seconds then expectorate it fully, before planned definitive surgical excision.
- Group 3: Patients receive acetylsalicylic acid mouthwash (one 300 mg tablet of acetylsalicylic acid dissolved in 250 mL of water) twice daily for 4-6 weeks, gargling for 60 seconds then expectorate it fully, before planned definitive surgical excision.
- Group 4: Patients receive acetylsalicylic acid mouthwash (one 300 mg tablet of acetylsalicylic acid dissolved in 250 mL of water) three times daily for 4-6 weeks, gargling for 60 seconds then expectorate it fully, before planned definitive surgical excision.
At the time of definitive surgical excision, the patient is asked to gargle with the last dose of acetylsalicylic acid mouthwash just before being anesthetized. A small biopsy of the dysplasia lesion is taken and examined for immediate effects of the acetylsalicylic acid mouthwash on the dysplasia lesion. The surgically excised tissue is treated in the same way as the initial biopsy tissue (i.e., half being used for routine histology to confirm the diagnosis and the other half for research purposes). Tissue samples are analyzed via enzyme immunosorbent assay, qRT-PCR, immunoblotting, ELISA, immunohistochemistry, gene array analysis, and microvessel density analysis.
