Lower Radiotherapy Dose Shows Promise for Treating HPV-Related Oropharyngeal Cancer

Given the current study findings, investigators suggested intratherapy personalization of chemoradiotherapy may possibly facilitate marked de-escalation of radiotherapy in patients with HPV-related oropharyngeal cancers. De-escalation of radiotherapy to 30 Gy on the basis of intratreatment hypoxia imaging among patients with head and neck cancers related to human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is feasible, safe, and associated with minimal toxicity, according to a pilot study published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.1
