Official Title
Study of the Role of Oncostatin M in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Brief Summary

The ROMCOR study will be interested in the impact and the role of oncostatin M (OSM), acytokine belonging to IL-6 superfamily, in the physiopathology of head and neck squamouscell carcinoma. The study team will study the impact of the presence of OSM and its mainreceptor OSM-R2 on several survival outcomes (overall survival, progression freesurvival) by multiple technics such as immunohistochemistry, transcriptomic in situassays and spatial transcriptomic. Furthermore, the study team will try to show a linkbetween serum level of several cytokines and in situ tumoral OSM.
