Abstract excerpt
High-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection is a major risk factor of head and neck cancers (HNCs). Despite the rising prevalence of HPV-driven HNC (HPV-HNC), biomarkers for detection, prognostication, and disease monitoring are lacking. To evaluate the capacity of salivary HR-HPV DNA as a biomarker of HPV-HNC, the salivary HR-HPV statuses of 491 and 10 patients with primary and recurrent HNC, respectively,...
