Abstract Objective Dysphagia is a major toxicity of chemoradiation (CRT) for oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). Elective upper‐neck irradiation (UNI), omitting the low neck, may reduce esophageal inlet muscle (EIM) dose and improve swallowing outcomes compared to elective whole‐neck irradiation (WNI).

Effects of proton therapy on the tumor immune system and clinical implications: A review
Proton therapy is a novel radiotherapy technique. We review four aspects of proton therapy: application in various tumors, effects on the tumor immune system, combination with other therapies, and future challenges. By presenting these aspects in this review, we aim to inspire clinical interventions.

Mechanistic Learning for Predicting Survival Outcomes in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
ABSTRACT We employed a mechanistic learning approach, integrating on‐treatment tumor kinetics (TK) modeling with various machine learning (ML) models to address the challenge of predicting post‐progression survival (PPS)—the duration from the time of documented disease progression to death—and overall survival (OS) in Head and Neck Squamous Cell ...
