Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To Create a biomarker gene panel that contains the most commonly occurring mutations in OCSCC.A foundational biomarker gene panel will be created based on research work that defined the mutational landscape of Head Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma. This panel of founder mutations will function as the biomarkers for released tumor DNA in saliva derived from Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Carcinoma patients.Timepoint: at the completion of the study - 12 months | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Validate founder mutations and evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic accuracy of rtDNA in saliva in the clinical settingTimepoint: 12 - 18 months | — |
