Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma remains a substantial burden to global health. Despite evolving therapies, 5-year survival is <50% and unlike in other cancers, reliable molecular biomarkers to guide treatment do not exist. METHODS: We performed targeted panel next-generation sequencing to analyse somatic variants from primary and recurrent tumour tissue, corresponding resection margins and...
