Clinical implications of human papilloma virus and other biologic markers in nasopharyngeal cancer
Highlights • The study identified relatively low expression of HPV DNA overall. • P16 expression was identified in more than half of nasopharyngeal cancer patients. • P16 expression correlated with improved nasopharyngeal cancer-specific survival. • P16 may be a prognostic marker for nasopharyngeal...
