P16 positivity and regression grade predict survival after neoadjuvant radiotherapy of OSCC

Abstract: P16 expression is associated with prognosis in preoperatively irradiated OSCC patients. The association between p16 positivity, regression grade and improved survival provides a rationale for de-intensification strategies in patients with head and neck cancer who respond well to neoadjuvant therapy, a concept that is being tested in prospective clinical trials.

“…These discrepancies could be due to such factors as differences in sampling techniques, preparation and detection methods. In our study, the median concentration of p16 in the study group was higher in the tumour tissue than in the margin samples, which seemed to confirm the results of studies carried out with the use of the bioinformatics instruments and IHC [ 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 ]. Interestingly, it has been speculated that the p16 concentration could be higher in OSCC patients with HPV infection [ 53 ].…”

“…As with most previous studies, our multivariate Cox regression analysis suggested that age is a signi cant risk factor for survival in BSCC patients. Our nomogram indicates that pathological grade is the most important factor, while age is the second most important one [15,16], and there is no signi cant difference between grades I and II. Multivariate analyses indicated that older age was an independent risk variable, with older patients having a lower survival rate [9,17,18].…”
