Verification of Saliva MMP-1 as a Diagnostic Marker of Oral Cavity Cancer

September 22, 2021 updated by: S&T Biomed Co., Ltd.

Verification of Saliva MMP-1 as a Strong Diagnostic Marker of Oral Cavity Cancer

The study is designed to measure salivary matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) we developed previously in patients with oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMD), oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), and healthy participants. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential of the newly developed salivary MMP-1 ELISA as an adjunctive tool to aid in diagnosis of OSCC.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Sensitivity and Specificity (both range from 0 to 1, the higher the better) of salivary MMP-1 levels as a diagnostic marker for OSCC
Time Frame: 30 days from initial sample obtained for this study
30 days from initial sample obtained for this study

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
ROC analysis of non-cancer group versus OSCC patients to find the optimal cutoff as the maximum of Youden's index (calculated as sensitivity + specificity - 1 and ranges from 0 to 1, the higher the better)
Time Frame: 30 days from initial sample obtained for this study
30 days from initial sample obtained for this study
