Scientists probe mouth Bugs' link to deadly cancer

NCT ID NCT05837221

Summary

This study aims to understand if changes in the natural bacteria in our mouth and gut (the microbiome) play a role in causing head and neck cancers. Researchers will collect saliva and stool samples from 60 people, including those with and without oral cancer, to analyze the bacteria and their byproducts. The goal is to learn more about the disease's causes, not to test a new treatment.
