Abstract

To evaluate the presence of Creatine phosphokinase in oral cancer patients using their serum samples.

15 samples of oral cancer serum, 15 samples of normal serum, CPK test kit.

This study showed that CPK levels were much higher than that of normal patients. Oral cancer survival rate has not improved in the last 40 years, despite recent advances in surgical procedures, technological progress in the world of medicine and the availability of new chemotherapeutic agents. Therefore this method can be used as an effective method to diagnose oral cancer and can be used as an effective biomarker for oral cancer.
