Light therapy vs. vitamin d cream: new hope for oral cancer prevention?
NCT ID NCT07453472
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests two non-surgical treatments for oral leukoplakia, a white patch in the mouth that can turn into cancer. One treatment uses a light-activated dye (photodynamic therapy) and the other uses a vitamin D-based cream (calcipotriol). The goal is to see which works better at shrinking or removing the patches and improving quality of life. About 166 adults with oral leukoplakia will take part, and the results will help find safer, easier ways to manage this condition.
