Summary

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate whether the active-matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) mouth-rinse test can help detect oral and oropharyngeal cancers. Researchers measured aMMP-8 levels in mouth-rinse samples collected from 77 cancer participants and 50 non-cancer participants in a clinical setting.

The main question this study seeks to answer:

Can the aMMP-8 mouth-rinse test accurately identify and differentiate cancer participants from non-cancer participants in real-time?
