Brief Summary

Oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) are chronic pathologies which can suffer dysplastic alterations and evolve into oral cancer. The diagnosis of those pathologies is commonly done by visual inspection, which is not capable of determining the presence or not of dysplasia. Furthermore, this type of diagnosis depends greatly on the expertise and training of the professional. In recent years, new methods that can help early oral cancer diagnosis have been developed. A new device has been commercialized, named GOCCLES® (Glasses for Oral Cancer Curing Light Exposed Screening), based on the autofluorescence principle. The hypothesis of this study is that GOCCLES® device could be an effective tool to help in early detection of oral cancer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Intraoral examination. Location of the lesion

    Intraoral examination of the injury with white light. Information about location will be recorded in a data collection document, individual for each patient.

    This procedure will be realised in the first appointment, at day 1, and it will take a time of five minutes

  • Intraoral examination. Size of the lesion

    Intraoral examination of the injury with white light. The size of the injury will be measured with an acetate rule. This information will be recorded in a data collection document, individual for each patient.

    This procedure will be realised in the first appointment, at day 1, and it will take a time of five minutes

  • Intraoral examination. Photographic record

    Photographs of the lesion will be recorded with a Canon EFS 60 mm camera and Canon Macro Ring Lite MR-14EX ring flash

    This procedure will be realised in the first appointment, at day 1, and it will take a time of five minutes

  • Oral examination with GOCCLES device

    An UV light source will be administered, with polymerization lamp sdi radii xpert, with a potency of 1500 mW/cm2 and a wavelength of 440-480nm, applied at 20cm of the injury. Notes will be taken on the location and size of the injury observed with the device. Image register using the GOCCLES® photographic filter for mobile devices. The same light source will be used.

    This procedure will be realised in the first appointment, at day 1, immediately after intraoral examination, and it will take a time of ten minutes.

  • Toluidine blue staining of the lesion

    For this procedure, Mashberg technique will be realised. The patient will realize a mouthwash with acetic acid at 1% for 20 seconds. Two using water for 20 seconds. Toluidine blue at 1% will be applied for 20 seconds. New mouthwash with acetic acid for 60 seconds and a final mouthwash with water. Information about location and size of the stained area will be recorded in the data collection document. Photographs will be taken with the Canon EFS 60mm camera and Canon Macro Ring Lite MR-14EX ring flash.

    This procedure will be realised in the first appointment, at day 1, immediately after oral examination with GOCCLES device, and it will take a time of fifteen minutes.

  • Biopsy and histopathological analysis

    The area to biopsy will be chosen, and, using local anaesthesia, it will be resected. If the area chosen by the investigator as the most adequate one matches the one referred by the GOCCLES® glasses and the toluidine blue, only one biopsy will be made. Otherwise, two or three samples will be taken.

    This procedure will be realised in the first appointment, at day 1, immediately after de toluidine blue staining, and it will take a time of twenty minutes. The patient will be called after 7-15 days, to receive the results.

Patients

EXPERIMENTAL

73 patients are to be recruited from the ones that go to the oral medicine service at the university clinic of Rey Juan Carlos in Madrid that present a compatible clinic diagnostic compatible with oral potentially malignant disorders. Each patient will receive first an intraoral exploration, taking note of location and size of the injury. After that, an exploration with the GOCCLES® device will be made, also taking note of the location and size data. Thereafter, the blue toluidine stain will be used, taking note of the size and location of the marked areas. Pictures will be taken through all the steps. Finally, a biopsy will be made of the area or areas the clinic considers and/or marked by the device or the toluidine blue.

Interventions

GOCCLESDEVICE

Inspection using GOCCLES®. An UV light source will be administered, with polymerization lamp sdi radii xpert, with a potency of 1500 mW/cm2 and a wavelength of 440-480nm, applied at 20cm of the injury. Notes will be taken on the location and size of the injury observed with the device. Image register using the GOCCLES® photographic filter for mobile devices. The same light source will be used.

Patients
Toluidine blue stainDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

To value the toluidine blue diagnosis capacity, the sequence described by Mashberg will be followed: The patient will realize a mouthwash with acetic acid at 1% for 20 seconds. Two using water for 20 seconds. Toluidine blue at 1% will be applied for 20 seconds. New mouthwash with acetic acid for 60 seconds and a final mouthwash with water. Notes on the and pictures will be taken on the location and size of the injury.

Patients
BiopsyPROCEDURE

The area to biopsy will be chosen, and, using local anaesthesia, it will be resected. The specimens will be sent to the oral and maxillofacial pathology diagnostic service of the University of Basque Country for anatomopathological study
