1 Apr 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated oropharyngeal cancer is a disease clinically and biologically distinct from smoking-related head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Despite its rapidly increasing incidence, the mutational landscape of HPV+ oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) remains understudied. METHODS: This article presents the first mutational analysis of the 46 HPV+ OPSCC...
