Active Accrual, Protocols Recruiting New Patients

Title:
Clinical Research Core Dental Screening Protocol
Number:
04-D-0267
Summary:
The purpose of this clinical research protocol is twofold: 1) to screen patients for protocol eligibility for those sponsored primarily by the Craniofacial Genetics Section, the Clinical Research Core and other Branches located within the National Institute of Dental and Crainofacial Research (NIDCR) as appropriate and 2) to evaluate patients with diseases or abnormalities of the oral cavity and/or crainofacial complex for future protocol development. Patients enrolled in this protocol will be evaluated and treated according to standard procedures and therapeutic modalities. No procedure such as biopsies or diagnostic imaging will be done for research only. Standard or experimental biochemical, genetic and proteomic tests may be conducted on tissue or blood samples collected for diagnosis. Eligible patients will be referred to appropriate NIDCR clinical research protocols for further protocol-driven diagnostic workup and therapy.
