But what if these common medications could do more than prevent clots?</p><p dir="ltr">Our research focuses on these patients, exploring two crucial questions:<br><b>Can blood thinners play a role in fighting mouth cancer?</b><br><b>And how do they interact with chemotherapy?</b></p><p><br></p><p dir="ltr">By uncovering these connections, we aim to enhance treatment outcomes, increase survival rates, and pave the way for more personalised, effective care for people battling mouth cancer.</p>
