Introduction
3
• HNC - 6th most common cancer worldwide• Historically tobacco and ETOH-related cancer• Strong evidence linking HPV infection to HNC• Increasing incidence of oropharynx cancers, while
decrease incidence of other HNCs• Proportion of HPV+ disease is increasing: epidemic
North European and North American patients• Preferentially identified in oropharynx cancer - tonsil and
base of tongue • HPV 16 is the predominant subtype (>90%)
Ang NEJM 2010Abogunrin BMC Cancer 2014
Patient and Tumor Characteristics
• Younger patient population• Lower smoking rates• Men > women• Multiple sexual partners• Oral sex practice• Oropharynx most common location• Small primary tumors and advanced nodal disease• Cystic nodes• Poorly differentiated, basaloid tumors

Molecular and Biological Events in HNC
HPV-Related Cancers
• Caused by high-risk HPV– HPV 16– Driven by viral oncogenes
• Restricted to oropharynx• Distinct molecular markers• “Good” prognosis• Young, good general health
Environment-Related Cancers
• Caused by environmental mutagens
– Smoking, alcohol
• Throughout oral mucosa• Distinct molecular markers• “Poor” prognosis, comorbidity• Second primary cancers
HNC Can Now Be Divided Into 2 Large and Distinct Subtypes

Chaturvedi and Gillison
New data from 2005 – 2011 revealed continuing alarming increases in age-specific incidence rates by birth cohort among all men born after 1940, age 40-70 years
OPC is one of the only 5 cancer types that increased in incidence from 1975 – 2009 (CDC)

Screening
• Screening at this time for HPV+ OPC is infeasible
– Inability to detect precursor lesions and subclinical or early-stage cancers
– Absence of an established intervention to reduce cancer incidence and mortality
10
HPV Diagnostic Testing
• p16 immunohistochemistry (very sensitive)• In situ hybridization for high risk HPV (very
specific)• PCR (both sensitive and specific)

• Acute: mucositis, dermatitis, dysphagia, odynophagia
• Chronic: xerostomia, dysgeusia
• Can therapy for all HPV+ OPC be deintensified to decrease risk of acute and long-term toxicities?
• Are there other prognostic factors within OPC other than HPV status?

• Similar risk of distant metastasis despite differences in loco-regional control

Conclusions
• Majority of OPC are now HPV 16 related• Better prognosis regardless of standard therapy applied• Specific HPV+ sub-groups do better independent of staging• Future standard treatment for these patients is undefined• Deintensification remains investigational and should not be
done outside of a clinical trial• As treatment deintensification proves successful, we hope the
quality of life for cured patients significantly improves
