SOTO: Treatment Sensitivity of Organoids to Predict Treatment Outcome

SOTO Study: Prospective Study to Correlate the Treatment Sensitivity of Patient-derived Organoids With Clinical Outcomes in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) Patients

In this study, we aim to assess whether Patient Derived Organoids can be used to predict treatment sensitivity in HNSCC patients.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a prospective observation study to generate patient-derived organoids from patients' samples to assess treatment response and to correlate with patients' treatment outcomes and to collect preliminary data on the ability of PDOs to predict patients' treatment response and whether their radiosensitivity and chemosensitivity can be correlated with their survival outcome.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

This is a prospective study with a one-year pilot study aiming to recruit 20 patients, which is the realistic target for year 1. The results from year 1 will be used to estimate the sample size for future prospective observation study

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (including oral cavity, oropharynx, paranasal sinuses, hypopharynx or larynx) undergoing curative treatment (primary surgery or radiotherapy) or presenting with recurrent or metastatic cancers
  • Age > 18 years old

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients unable to give informed consent e.g. mental disability or vulnerable adults
