Studying oral cancer cells after surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks at the cells in oral cancer tumors removed during surgery. By analyzing these cells, researchers hope to better understand the cancer and improve future treatments. It does not involve extra treatment — just donating a small sample of your tumor for research.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You must have a type of oral cancer called squamous cell carcinoma (a common form).
- You must be scheduled for surgery at the Centre Léon Bérard.
- You must be covered by health insurance.
- You cannot be pregnant or nursing, and you must be able to safely receive general anesthesia.

This study looks at how oral cancer develops, from early changes in the mouth to invasive cancer. It may help find better ways to prevent or treat oral cancer. If you are having surgery for oral cancer or have a precancerous mouth condition, you may be able to join.
This study helps doctors plan surgery more individually for early-stage oral (mouth) squamous cell carcinoma. It focuses on using tumor features found during evaluation to guide surgical decisions, aiming to improve treatment accuracy.
This study is testing a new, simple test that looks for signs of oral or throat cancer. If you have a suspicious spot or symptom, this test might help find out if it's cancer.
This study looks at “immune signals” in blood, saliva, and stool to learn more about head and neck cancers (especially squamous cell carcinoma). It may help researchers find patterns that improve understanding of disease or how treatment should be guided.
This study looks at whether certain genes and a protein in your saliva can help doctors understand mouth cancer better. It involves providing a saliva sample before starting treatment, and the results may lead to more personalized care in the future.
This study collects tissue from people with newly diagnosed head and neck squamous cell cancer and grows “mini tumor models” in the lab. The goal is to see how these models respond to new therapies, which may help guide more effective treatment choices in the future.
