ABSTRACT
The stepwise development of cancer of the head and neck over a period of several decades opens up a wide window of preventive intervention options. Although chemoprevention (for example with retinoids and COX-2 inhibitors) is possible, in terms of side effects and long-term outcomes it is not as successful as was hoped. Currently, natural substances, which in particular are characterized by an absence of side effects, are undergoing clinical trials.
