InHANSE awarded new grant

InHANSE has recently been awarded a grant from Cancer Research UK to fund the De-ESCALaTE Collect study. 

De-ESCALaTE Collect is run alongside the De-ESCALaTE Trial.

Using standardised protocols, diagnostic tissue blocks and 40ml-blood and oral rinse fluid will be collected at pre-treatment, 3 months and 1 year after treatment, and at recurrence, and neck dissection blocks if appropriate. Samples will be bio-banked in HBRC, a dedicated state of the art tissue banking facility for
use in future studies.
