Late side effects of radiation treatment for head and neck cancer

open access: yesRadiation Oncology Journal, 2020
Patients undergoing radiation therapy for head and neck cancer (HNC) experience significant early and long-term side effects. The likelihood and severity of complications depends on a number of factors, including the total dose of radiation delivered ...

De novo head and neck cancer after liver transplant with antibody-based immunosuppression induction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background Powerful antibody-based immunosuppression induction is now used routinely during organ transplantation, and may place patients at even higher risk of post-transplant cancer.

Platinum-based chemotherapy plus cetuximab in head and neck cancer.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2008
BACKGROUND Cetuximab is effective in platinum-resistant recurrent or metastatic squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck. We investigated the efficacy of cetuximab plus platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment in patients with recurrent or

Second primary cancer risk - the impact of applying different definitions of multiple primaries: results from a retrospective population-based cancer registry study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: There is evidence that cancer survivors are at increased risk of second primary cancers. Changes in the prevalence of risk factors and diagnostic techniques may have affected more recent risks.<p></p> Methods: We examined the

Postoperative irradiation with or without concomitant chemotherapy for locally advanced head and neck cancer.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2004
BACKGROUND We compared concomitant cisplatin and irradiation with radiotherapy alone as adjuvant treatment for stage III or IV head and neck cancer. METHODS After undergoing surgery with curative intent, 167 patients were randomly assigned to receive ...

Feature Gradient Flow for Interpreting Deep Neural Networks in Head and Neck Cancer Prediction [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of 2022 IEEE 19th International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI), 2022, 2023
This paper introduces feature gradient flow, a new technique for interpreting deep learning models in terms of features that are understandable to humans. The gradient flow of a model locally defines nonlinear coordinates in the input data space representing the information the model is using to make its decisions.

Investigation of radiomic signatures for local recurrence using primary tumor texture analysis in oropharyngeal head and neck cancer patients

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Radiomics is one such “big data” approach that applies advanced image refining/data characterization algorithms to generate imaging features that can quantitatively classify tumor phenotypes in a non-invasive manner.

Alternatively spliced ANLN isoforms synergistically contribute to the progression of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a common cancer with high mortality. Anilin actin-binding protein (ANLN) has been reported to be associated with carcinogenesis in multiple tumors. However, the expression pattern and functional effects of
