HPV16 genome structure analysis in oropharyngeal cancer PDXs identifies tumors with integrated and episomal genomes
25 Jun 2024
Abstract excerpt
HPV + oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPC) incidence recently surpassed cervical cancer and is the most common HPV-related cancer in the developed world. HPV16 is in ∼90 % of HPV + OPCs, with episomal genomes in the majority of cases. Most existing HPV16+ cancer cell lines derive from outside the oropharynx and harbor integrated HPV genomes. Thus, there is need for OPC preclinical models to evaluate...
