Abstract excerpt
Human papillomavirus (HPV) positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPV + OPSCC) is increasing in prevalence in the USA, as are cases of patients with multiple HPV + OPSCCs (mHPV + OPSCC). mHPV + OPSCCs present a unique opportunity to examine HPV + OPSCC mutation acquisition and evolution. We performed sequencing of the viral genome, somatic exome and somatic transcriptome from 8 patients each with 2...
