Impact of nodal ratio on survival in squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity.

30 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: The association between nodal ratio and survival has not been assessed in squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck. METHODS: This is a population-based analysis, using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End-Results database, to ... Read more...

A phase 2 trial of surgery with perioperative INGN 201 (Ad5CMV-p53) gene therapy followed by chemoradiotherapy for advanced, resectable squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, and larynx: report of the Southwest Oncology Group.

30 Aug 2009 OBJECTIVE: To assess the feasibility of treating patients with high-risk stage III and IV squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, and larynx with perioperative adenovirus-p53 (INGN 201) gene therapy along with surgery ... Read more...

Carcinoma cell-derived chemokines and their presence in oral fluid.

30 Jul 2009 Chemokines are important in inflammation and in carcinogenesis. We hypothesized that besides oro-laryngeal cancer, oral inflammatory states, such as periodontitis, may also influence the chemokine profile of oral fluid. The aim of this study was to ... Read more...
