Trial Identification

Brief Title: Functional and Molecular Characterization of Treatment Response in Tumors in the Oral Cavity Using Optical Spectroscopy

Official Title: Functional and Molecular Characterization of Treatment Response in Tumors in the Oral Cavity Using Optical Spectroscopy

Study ID: NCT04272294

Study Description

Brief Summary: The objective of this pilot study is to estimate the sensitivity and specificity of diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and Raman spectroscopy (RS) at detecting treatment-resistant disease when DRS and RS are used together to measure treatment-induced reoxygenation and molecular changes in tumors of the oral cavity. This study will be performed in a total of 90 patients that have Stage 3 or 4 head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) with primary tumors located in the larynx or one tonsil.

Detailed Description: The objective of this pilot study is to estimate the sensitivity and specificity of diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and Raman spectroscopy (RS) at detecting treatment-resistant disease when DRS and RS are used together to measure treatment-induced reoxygenation and molecular changes in tumors of the oral cavity. This study will be performed in a total of 90 patients that have Stage 3 or 4 head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) with primary tumors located in the larynx or one tonsil. This study is a single-arm, single-center observational pilot study of the accuracy of DRS+RS at distinguishing early between treatment-resistant and treatment-responsive disease in study-eligible subjects undergoing first-line chemoradiation therapy for Stage 3 or 4 HNSCC of the larynx or tonsil. Three (3) optical spectra each will be collected from the tumor, an adjacent normal site, and a normal tissue site on the buccal mucosa prior to treatment. The subject will undergo 4 repeat post-treatment measures taken after radiation therapy begins (marked as Day 1). Repeat measures will be taken on Day 2(+1), Day 4(±1), Day 7(±1), and Day 10(±1). The probe will be performed at the beginning of the radiation therapy visit, prior to the radiation dose that day.
