Call for papers: Oral Oncology II - Treatment and Genetics. What do we learn up to now
Oral cancer demands a comprehensive approach involving early diagnosis, prognostic evaluation, and treatment optimization. Genetic factors play a pivotal role in its development and progression. Emerging research reveals specific genetic markers associated with susceptibility and prognosis, paving the way for personalized treatments. Genomic and molecular profiling has identified critical genetic alterations and signalling pathways. Despite these advancements, challenges persist in translating genetic discoveries into clinical practice, ensuring equitable access to tailored therapies, and addressing patients and tumour heterogeneity. Therefore, this special issue explores the intricate interplay between genetics and treatment aiming to improve survival rates and quality of life among survivors.
