摘要
Ongoing genetic and epigenetic research involving DNA methylation, salivary bio-markers, wild-type p53 tumor suppressor gene proteins, and HPV oncogenes are being directed at identification and treatment of dysplastic and malignant squamous cell mucosal lesions. Research is being conducted to improve immunotherapy drug response rates by increasing the amount of inflammation within the tumor micro-environment. Ongoing research is focused on the application of the antidiabetic drug metformin for the prevention and management of oral squamous cell dysplastic lesions. Professional and nonprofit cancer support organizations are essential for furthering education and research within the area of head and neck cancer.
