Zusammenfassung:Background Outcomes of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) after development of distant metastases (DM) in the context of human papillomavirus (HPV) tumor status remain controversial in the literature. Methods OPSCC patients with DM treated between June 2015 and March 2019 were included from a prospectively enrolled database. Characteristics of DM including sites, episodes, and timing of disease were analyzed in addition to survival after DM. Results Sixty‐nine HPV‐positive and 18 HPV‐negative OPSCC patients with DM were included. The 2‐year survival after DM was higher for HPV‐positive patients (54.0% vs. 11.3%, p
