Group C: 400 subjects with confirmed diagnosis of Oral Carcinoma. Patient must be diagnosed with histologically confirmed oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCC) (lip, floor of mouth, anterior 2/3 tongue, buccal mucosa, upper and lower gingiva, hard palate and retromolar trigone
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: The exclusion criteria are as follows: ?Patients who have participated in another investigational clinical study within thirty (30) days before screening. ?Inflammation, Cut or fissures in the oral cavity which was not preview of the Oral Cancer. ?Uncontrolled hypertension, diabetes mellitus or any other co-morbidity that is considered as an exclusion by the Investigator. ? Dementia or significantly altered mental status that would limit the ability to obtain informed consent and compliance with the requirements of this protocol. ?Patients with a history of cancer other than for selected group ?Significant medical history, immune-compromised and patients with COVID19 illness at present. ?Subjects with any other clinically significant unstable medical condition, life-threatening disease, which in the opinion of the Investigator that would interfere with the study results. ? Any acute or chronic medical, psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that could increase the risk associated with trial participation or could interfere with interpretation of trial results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry in the trial. ?

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the ERLY SIGN Kit in identifying the active levels of MMP-2 and/or MMP-9 in saliva for early detection of Oral Cancer as compared to gold standard (Biopsy results)Timepoint: 1 day | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| ?To have a predictive scale about the progression of patients with premalignant oral lesions with highly active MMP-2 and/or MMP-9 level in the saliva to malignant oral cancer ?To calculate the correlative index of progression of patients with premalignant oral lesions with highly active levels of active MMP-2 and/or MMP-9 in the saliva to malignant oral cancer ?To establish a correlation between the medical history and habits of oral cancer patients with the active levels of MMP-2 and/or MMP-9 as determined by the proposed kit.Timepoint: 90 days | — |
