Poor prognosis in human papillomavirus-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas that overexpress hypoxia inducible factor-1α.
BACKGROUND Hypoxia induces stabilization of the transcription factor HIF-1alpha (HIF-1α), associated with (chemo-)radiotherapy resistance in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). We investigated the effect of HIF-1α expression on survival in relation to human papillomavirus (HPV) status in oropharyngeal SCC. METHODS We conducted an immunohistochemical analysis of HIF-1α protein express...
متن کاملWeekly cisplatin and radiotherapy for low risk, locoregionally advanced human papillomavirus-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
BACKGROUND There is interest in different treatment strategies, including deintensification in good prognosis human papillomavirus-positive (HPV(+)) oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). We reviewed our experience with weekly cisplatin in low-risk, locoregionally advanced HPV(+) oropharyngeal SCC since late 2009. METHODS Data from patients with low-risk HPV(+) oropharyngeal SCC treated...
متن کاملRecent advances in managing human papillomavirus-positive oropharyngeal tumors
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is detected in a subset of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, most frequently in tumors in the Waldeyer's ring (palatine tonsil and base of tongue). Several studies suggest that patients with HPV-positive tumors have better survival with either concurrent chemoradiation therapy or surgery followed by radiation compared with HPV-negative patients. How...
متن کاملUsing Texture Analysis to Determine Human Papillomavirus Status of Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinomas on CT.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Human papillomavirus-associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma is increasing in prevalence and typically occurs in younger patients than human papillomavirus-negative squamous cell carcinoma. While imaging features of human papillomavirus-positive versus human papillomavirus-negative squamous cell carcinoma nodal metastases have been described, characteristics dist...
متن کاملClinical relevance of TNM staging system according to breast cancer subtypes.
BACKGROUND There has been reported that the association between nodal spread and tumor size was disrupted in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and it showed characteristically early relapse. The TNM (tumor-node-metastasis) staging system might not be equally effective as a prognostic indicator for all subtypes. The aim of our study was to evaluate the usefulness of the staging according to s...
