Chemotherapy has shown little antitumor activity against advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop more effective therapeutic methods for patients with advanced OSCC. Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor ligand family that selectively induces apoptosis of cancer cells. S-1 is a new oral antineoplastic agent that can induce apoptosis in various types of cancer cells, including OSCC. Hence, combined treatment of cancer cells with TRAIL and S-1 might exert dramatic antitumor effects on OSCC cells.
