Pattern of Failure in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma After Radiotherapy in a Low‐Incidence Population: A DAHANCA Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is uncommon in many populations. Most existing clinical evidence comes from endemic areas, where Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)‐associated subtypes predominate. We analyzed patterns of failure in a population‐based cohort from Denmark, a low‐incidence setting.

Predicting Oral Cancer From Precursor Lesions: The Case for a Standardized Framework of Analysis to Improve Prediction Modeling

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oral Cancer often occurs from the transformation of precursor lesions, and this offers an opportunity for early detection. Current methods to assess risk of precursor lesion progression to oral cancer incompletely predict risk. A multimodal framework that leverages machine learning is needed to improve prediction.

Prognostic Impact of Lymphovascular Invasion on Distant Metastasis in HPV‐Negative Head and Neck Cancer

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Lymphovascular invasion (LVI) is a recognized poor prognostic factor in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), particularly for regional recurrence and overall survival. However, its role in predicting distant metastasis, especially in HPV‐negative HNSCC, remains unclear. Objective To evaluate the association between LVI and

Pretreatment Cachexia Index Is Associated With Severe Treatment Toxicity and Overall Survival in HPV‐Negative Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Cancer cachexia is characterized by skeletal muscle loss, poor nutrition, and systemic inflammation and is common in head and neck cancer. We evaluated whether the Cachexia Index (CXI) predicts treatment toxicity and survival in HPV‐negative HNSCC.
