Mixed reality assisted oral cancer surgery
Part of Cancer, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether using mixed reality (a technology that overlays digital images onto the real world) helps surgeons more precisely remove oral cancer and rebuild the area with a tissue flap. It may lead to better outcomes for people who need this type of surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a confirmed diagnosis of oral cancer (through a biopsy before surgery).
- Your doctor plans to remove the cancer and rebuild the area using a flap of tissue from another part of your body.
- You are healthy enough to have surgery (no serious medical problems that would make surgery risky).
- You are willing to sign a consent form and return for follow-up visits after surgery.

This study helps teams plan surgery for people who need part of the lower jaw removed and rebuilt using special tissue flaps. It mainly looks at whether having specific pre-surgery CT images is possible and useful for reconstruction planning.
This trial tests a smartphone app that helps you practice swallowing exercises after surgery for oral cancer. It's designed for people who are having their first tumor removal and flap reconstruction surgery.
This Phase 2 trial tests a special light-tracking medicine (cRGD-ZW800-1) to help surgeons see oral cancer during surgery. The goal is to improve how well the tumor is found and removed while keeping side effects manageable.
This trial tests if giving a short course of radiation (SBRT) along with chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug before surgery can improve outcomes for people with advanced mouth or throat cancer that is not caused by HPV. It's designed for patients whose tumors can be surgically removed and who haven't had prior cancer treatment.
This trial studies using a robot-assisted operation through the mouth to diagnose or treat certain non-cancer (benign) and cancer (malignant) tumors in the head and neck. It may help some people avoid more invasive surgery by using an approach that reaches the throat and voice box area through the mouth.
This trial studies whether a new surgical reconstruction method can improve outcomes for people with oral cavity or oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (a type of head and neck cancer). The goal is to rebuild the area using a tissue flap while reducing problems where the tissue is taken from.
