Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) is the fifth leading cause of cancer-related deaths with an annual incidence of 500,000 cases worldwide (Dasgupta et al., 2010). Approximately, 40,000 new cases of HNSCC have diagnosed annually in the United States alone (Dasgupta et al., 2010). This cancer involves five major anatomical sites including the oral cavity, oropharynx, nasopharynx, hypopharynx, and larynx (Chung and Gillison, 2009). Despite significant improvements in therapeutic modalities, 5-year post-therapeutic survival rates are still among the lowest of the major cancers, with loco-regional relapse being the primary cause of death (Chung and Gillison, 2009; Dasgupta et al., 2010). Due to poor survival, improved methods for early disease detection and prevention are clearly warranted.

Perceiving a compelling pro as a purpose behind threat gives a couple of approaches to the probability of balancing activity, incorporating decreasing or getting rid of the prologue to the administrator, developing an immunization that turns away illness, or treating the pollution before tumor makes. Various preventive undertakings are guided at diminishing or wiping out exposures to malignancy causing specialists or protecting the body from exposures. Distinctive undertakings may incorporate screening technique, for instance, those for cervical and colorectal tumors, which can recognize premalignant wounds in individuals without signs who can be managed before infection makes. The neutralizing activity of harm and the progression of all the more capable approaches to recognize tumor predecessors and starting time developments, when treatment may be ideal, remain fundamental targets. NCI has looked into various trademark and built blends to check whether they have chemopreventive properties—properties that help diminish the risk of various sorts of sickness. The two most famous triumphs rising up out of this investigation are the supports by the FDA of the medications tamoxifen (Nolvadex®) and raloxifene (Evista®) to diminish the peril of a chest tumor in women at extended risk of the disease.

The time from starting prologue to a threat causing expert—for example, a malignancy causing specialist, for instance, brilliant light or tobacco smoke, or a compelling administrator, for instance, human papillomavirus (HPV)— to the change of sickness routinely takes decades. In this way, it as often as possible takes various years before a decrease in introduction realizes a diminishment in danger rate and mortality. Regardless, a reducing in the introduction in the midst of this long between time can over the long haul result in impressive whole deal benefits, as saw with the diminishing in smoking rates that have added to the decline in lung danger rate and mortality throughout late years. Biomarkers consolidate inherited changes, diverse changes in DNA, and varieties from the standard in proteins or other natural particles that demonstrate the closeness of a quirk. They may be perceived in blood, stool, other body fluids, or tissue.
