Brief summary (registry, in English)
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) are considered as a one of the most malignant cancers. It has prognosis due to its distant metastasis and obvious destruction which lead to low survival rate. The conventional treatment modalities such as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are only the suitable strategies until now. Investigators cannot ignore the serious side effects of chemotherapy such as gastrointestinal upset, bone marrow suppression which cannot be overcome. For all these complications, there is a great need and demand to discover a new agents and strategies for treating OSCC. Licorice extract, especially Licochalcone A, is one of many natural extracts that have used as a traditional in treatment of inflammation, microbial infections. Regarding antitumor effect, Licochalcone A reveals interesting results in programmed cell death and apoptosis in cancer cells such as prostate, bladder, colon and gastric cancer.
