The serum level of tumor-antigen 4 (TA-4) was measured in 401 patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of various organs (76 lung, 82 esophagus, and 234 head and neck). The mean serum level of TA-4 in patients with lung SCC was 3.6 times higher than that in healthy controls and even higher in the

Currently, there is lack of a histologic classification of squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix that correlates significantly with patient survival. This study investigated the survival predictive value of two immunohistochemical markers, the blood group A,B,H isoantigens and the Oxford Ca antigen,
We established a new syngeneic murine model of oral squamous-cell carcinoma (SCC) to analyze the potential role of immune recognition determinants in the early development of oral cancer. In this study, we examined whether SCC that undergo transformation and development in the absence of specific im
The management of recurrent head and neck squamous cell carcinoma can be challenging to both physician and patient. This is due at least in part to the lack of an accurate and clinically applicable staging system for these patients. The purposes of this study were to examine the survival patterns of
