DESCRIPTION OF RESEARCH<br />

Dr. Goodwin’s research focuses on the prevention<br />

and treatment of squamous cell carcinoma<br />

(SCCA) of the upper aerodigestive tract.<br />

<strong>Cancer</strong> Prevention and Control<br />

Dr. Goodwin has had a long-term interest in the<br />

potential of several micronutrients to inhibit the<br />

development of these cancers. Currently, various<br />

aspects of an extensive database from a phase III<br />

chemo-prevention trial, investigating the activity<br />

of beta-carotene, are being analyzed and published.<br />

He also is collaborating with investigators<br />

at the University of Florida on an NCI-funded<br />

oral cavity cancer control project. Disparities in<br />

mortality and stage at time of presentation for<br />

under-served populations is a developing interest.<br />

Quality of Life<br />

In addition, Dr. Goodwin studies the impact of<br />

treatment decisions on the quality of life experienced<br />

by patients with head and neck cancer.<br />

Current studies include collaborative investigations<br />

of speech and swallowing function following<br />

various treatment interventions. Working<br />

with Frank J. Penedo, Ph.D., he also is interested<br />

in the effect of stress and depression on survival<br />

and quality of life in this group of patients.<br />

Therapy<br />

Finally, Dr. Goodwin is actively involved in clinical<br />

trials studying the effect of P-53 gene therapy,<br />

alone and in combination with chemotherapy, for<br />

recurrent cancers of the oral cavity, pharynx, and<br />

larynx.<br />

HIGHLIGHTS/DISCOVERIES<br />

• Established, as one of the first investigators, the<br />

efficacy of selenium and retinoic acid in inhibiting<br />

carcinogenesis in an animal tumor model<br />

relevant to SCCA of the upper aerodigestive<br />

tract.<br />

• Published definitive outcomes studies analyzing<br />

the results of salvage treatment for recurrent<br />

cancer of the upper aerodigestive tract and for<br />

the treatment of Stage IV cancer.<br />
