Different Pattern of Treatment Failure After Chemoradiation Between p16+ and p16− Patients Affected by Oropharyngeal Carcinoma

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) exhibits distinct clinical behaviors according to HPV/p16 status and smoking exposure. While HPV‐positive OPC generally shows superior survival, differences in recurrence patterns remain unclear. Methods A retrospective multicenter analysis of 674 AJCC VII edition Stage III–IVa/b OPC patients treated with ...

Predominance of In‐Field Recurrence After Radiotherapy for Sinonasal Cancer: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sinonasal malignancies (SNM) are rare, heterogeneous tumors with poor prognosis. There is an unmet need to improve treatment outcomes. Despite advances in imaging and molecular classification, optimal curative radiotherapy (RT) strategies remain undefined.
