*According to the American Cancer Society about 1 out of every 5 cases of leukoplakia is cancerous or will develop into cancer if not treated. Erythroplakia is less common, but more serious. The majority of found erythroplakia cases are cancerous or will develop into it. After having pre-cancerous spots removed it is important that you have regular check ups with a dentist or doctor to monitor your tongue and check for a recurrence of pre-cancerous spots.

Overview

Secondary prevention strategies following tongue cancer include monthly follow-ups for the first 12-18 months following therapy. Drugs such as synthetic retinoids, non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs, EGFR inhibition, and human papilloma virus related oropharyngeal carcinoma vaccine can be used as a secondary chemopreventive agents.

Secondary Prevention

  • Postoperative patients are monitored monthly for the first 12-18 months.
  • In patients who undergo nonsurgical treatment, follow-up diagnostic imaging studies are recommended in the first 6 months.

Synthetic retinoids

Non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs

EGFR inhibition 

Human papilloma virus related oropharyngeal carcinoma vaccine
