About this study

An evaluation and validation study on oral cancer screening methods will be carried out, and two different methods will be used for oral cancer screening among the population. The two different methods are: (1) clinical observation (including inspection and palpation) combined with pathological biopsy. (2) Clinical observation (including inspection and palpation), in vivo staining (toluidine blue) combined with pathological biopsy. By evaluating and comparing the sensitivity and specificity of the two screening methods, the more effective oral cancer screening method will be selected.

Read the detailed description

An evaluation and validation study on oral cancer screening methods will be carried out, and two different methods will be used for oral cancer screening among the population. The two different methods are: (1) clinical observation (including inspection and palpation) combined with pathological biopsy. That is, inspecting and palpating the oral cavity and neck of the screened object. If positive lesions are found, then further pathological biopsy will be performed. This is also the commonly used screening method for oral cancer now; (2) Clinical observation (including inspection and palpation), in vivo staining (toluidine blue) combined with pathological biopsy. That is, toluidine blue staining is performed at the same time as the inspection and palpation of the oral cavity and neck of the screening object. As long as the screening subjects found positive lesions or abnormal living body staining, pathological biopsy was performed. By evaluating and comparing the sensitivity and specificity of the two screening methods, the more effective oral cancer screening method will be selected. Finally, we will carry out prospective controlled population studies in high-risk areas and non-high-risk areas to further evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of screening method after selection.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • clinical observation combined with pathological biopsyOther

    Inspecting and palpating the oral cavity and neck of the screened object. If positive lesions are found, then further pathological biopsy will be performed.

  • Clinical observation, in vivo staining (reagent: toluidine blue) combined with pathological biopsyOther

    (2) Inspecting and palpating the oral cavity and neck of the screened object. At the same time, in vivo staining is performed on each participant. The reagent used for staining is toluidine blue. As long as the screening subjects found positive lesions or abnormal living body staining, pathological biopsy was performed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing clinical observation combined with pathological biopsy and Clinical observation, in vivo staining (reagent: toluidine blue) combined with pathological biopsy in people with Oral Cancer, run by Hunan Cancer Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The rate of participants being detected as positive (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Jun 2021.
