Official Title: A Randomized Multicenter Phase II Study Using HPPH With PDT Versus Standard of Care Surgery for Patients With T1/T2 Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Oral Cavity
Brief Summary: This randomized phase II trial studies how well photodynamic therapy with HPPH works in treating patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity. Photodynamic therapy uses HPPH that becomes active when it is exposed to a certain kind of light. When the drug is active, cancer cells are killed. This may be effective against squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity.
