Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. Multiple, validated, PoC assays evaluated for their comparative efficacy in screening/early detection of OPML 2. A Resource-setting based positioning of the assay systems in the various levels of the national healthcare system 3. Accuracy of the PoC assays in periodic surveillance of OPML progression 4. A pan-omic, immune and microbiome profile of patients based on their susceptibility to relapse post-surgical excision and/or malignant transformation. 5. A prognostic nomogram integrating clinical, imaging, saliva/cytology marker profiles, histology and omics data Timepoint: 3 years to achieve first objective 57 months to evaluate the efficacy of PoC assay 57 months to develop prognostic model 5 years to develop atlas of opml

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. An open-source data centre with multi-dimension comprehensive atlas of OPML during disease progression and malignant transformationTimepoint: open source data center will be achieved by end of 5 years
