Study Summary

This randomized clinical trial studies the effects of black raspberry compounds (phytochemicals) on the bacteria in the mouth (oral microbiome) of current smokers and non-smokers. The oral microbiome protects the body from pathogenic bacteria. Smoking alters the oral microbiome and may increase the susceptibility to cancer by modulating normal host-bacteria interactions. Black raspberry phytochemicals may protect the oral microbiome of smokers and may lower their risk of developing oral cancer.

Primary Outcome

The analyses of the microbial shift data will use a two-factor (smoking and berry treatment) ANOVA model with interaction on the post-treatment minus baseline differences between appropriately transformed data. Phylogenetic distances and community similarity and diversity will be computed from the sequence data. The sensitivity of the phylogenetic analysis to the uncertain knowledge of the phylogenetic relationships will be examined using draws from the posterior distribution of trees in a Mr. B
