The role of the androgen receptor (AR) as an immunomarker for diagnosis of salivary gland duct carcinoma (SDC) is well known. Other non-squamous cell head and neck cancers (NSCC-HN), including a small subset of salivary gland cancers (SGCs), can also express AR. With the increase in effective and powerful new generation of anti-androgen agents and drugs administered orally, more targetable AR-driven NSCC-HN, such as subsets of SGCs, should be investigated for possible expression of AR. In this review, we focus on SGC subtypes, which could express AR and describe the main androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) strategies.
