U.S., May 22 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06983392) titled 'Persistence of Oral DNA Adducts in Smokers and Vapers' on April 14.
Brief Summary: This study aims to better understand what damage caused to oral cells from smoking and vaping might be important in the formation of oral cancers. We will compare levels of DNA damage between those asked to stop smoking or vaping to those who continue to smoke or vape and those who never use tobacco or nicotine products. The goal is to identify damage that is found at higher levels or remains in the oral cells longer because they might be more important in causing cancer than other types of damage.
Study Start Date: July 30
Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL...
