A systematic literature review of the human papillomavirus prevalence in locally and regionally advanced and recurrent/metastatic head and neck cancers through the last decade: The "ALARM" study. Cancer Med 2024; 13:e6916. [PMID: 38247106 PMCID: PMC10905345 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.6916] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2023] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2024] Open
Abstract
AIMS The aim of this systematic literature review was to provide updated information on human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence in locally and regionally advanced (LA) and recurrent/metastatic (RM) head and neck cancer (HNC) worldwide. METHODS Electronic searches were conducted on clinicaltrials.gov, MEDLINE/PubMed, Embase, and ASCO/ESMO journals of congresses for interventional studies (IS; Phase I-III trials) as well as MEDLINE and Embase for non-interventional studies (NIS) of LA/RM HNC published between January 01, 2010 and December 31, 2020. Criteria for study selection included: availability of HPV prevalence data for LA/RM HNC patients, patient enrollment from January 01, 2010 onward, and oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) included among HNC types. HPV prevalence per study was calculated as proportion of HPV+ over total number of enrolled patients. For overall HPV prevalence across studies, mean of reported HPV prevalence rates across studies and pooled estimate (sum of all HPV+ patients over sum of all patients enrolled) were assessed. RESULTS Eighty-one studies (62 IS; 19 NIS) were included, representing 9607 LA/RM HNC cases, with an overall mean (pooled) HPV prevalence of 32.6% (25.1%). HPV prevalence was 44.7% (44.0%) in LA and 24.3% (18.6%) in RM. Among 2714 LA/RM OPC patients from 52 studies with available data, mean (pooled) value was 55.8% (50.7%). The majority of data were derived from Northern America and Europe, with overall HPV prevalence of 46.0% (42.1%) and 24.7% (25.3%) across studies conducted exclusively in these geographic regions, respectively (Northern Europe: 31.9% [63.1%]). A "p16-based" assay was the most frequently reported HPV detection methodology (58.0%). CONCLUSION Over the last decade, at least one quarter of LA/RM HNC and half of OPC cases studied in IS and NIS were HPV+. This alarming burden is consistent with a potential implication of HPV in the pathogenesis of at least a subgroup of HNC, underscoring the relevance of HPV testing and prophylaxis to HNC prevention and management.

Benefit-risk appraisal of lip-split mandibular "swing" vs. transoral approaches to posterior oral/oropharyngeal carcinomas using number needed to treat, to harm, and likelihood to be helped or harmed. Surg Oncol 2022; 44:101837. [PMID: 35985085 DOI: 10.1016/j.suronc.2022.101837] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2022] [Revised: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 08/08/2022] [Indexed: 01/30/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE s: To evaluate benefit-risk profiles of lip-split mandibular "swing" vs. transoral approaches (LS-MSA; TOA) to the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) stage I-III posterior oral/oropharyngeal carcinomas (PO/OPC). METHODS Using a retrospective double-cohort study design, we enrolled stage I-III PO/OPC patients treated in two German medical centers during a 4-year interval. The predictor variable was surgical technique (LS-MSA/TOA), and main outcomes were complete resection with R0 margins (CR-R0), 5-year overall survival and recurrence (OS5; R5), and adverse events (AEs). Descriptive and bivariate statistics were computed with α = 95%. Benefit-risk profiles were investigated using number needed to treat (NNT), to harm (NNH), and likelihood to be helped or harmed (LLH). RESULTS At 5-year follow-ups of 202 subjects, LS-MSA caused significantly better CR-R0 (P = 0.001; NNT: 4) and fewer R5 (P = 0.003; NNT: 5), but more risks of wound dehiscence ([WD]; P = 0.01; NNH = 8), and orocutaneous fistula ([OCF]; P = 0.01; NNH: 10). LLH calculations demonstrated that LS-MSA was 2 and 1.6 times more likely to result in CR-R0 and fewer R5 than an incident of WD. There was no significant difference in OS5, postoperative infections (within 30 postoperative days) and AE domains according to the University of Washington Quality of Life questionnaire version 4 (UW-QoLv4) between the surgical approach groups. CONCLUSIONS Compared to TOA, LS-MSA is an efficacious and tolerable intervention for inspecting and eradicating stage I-III PO/OPCs, and reducing recurrences at 5-year follow-ups. Post-LS-MSA WD and OCF require meticulous concerns and more investigations.

Pitak-Arnnop P, Subbalekha K, Sirintawat N, Meningaud JP, Tangmanee C, Auychai P, Neff A. A retrospective cohort study on predictors associated with skull base invasion of maxillary ameloblastomas. JOURNAL OF STOMATOLOGY, ORAL AND MAXILLOFACIAL SURGERY 2022; 123:e439-e447. [PMID: 35318133 DOI: 10.1016/j.jormas.2022.03.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2022] [Revised: 03/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/16/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To identify factors associated with skull base involvement (SBI) of maxillary ameloblastomas (MA). METHODS This retrospective cohort study was composed of MA patients treated during a 7-year period. Demographic, radiographic, and nine immunohistopathologic predictor variables were included. The outcome variable was presence of SBI (yes/no). Descriptive, bi- and multivariate statistics were computed, and P ≤ .05 in multivariate analyses was considered statistically significant. RESULTS The sample comprised 23 subjects (34.8% females; 21.7% with SBI) with a mean age of 50.3 ± 18.2 years. Candidate predictors of an SBI in MAs were 1) male gender, 2) a low Karnofsky Performance Status score (KPS), 3) multilocular radiolucency, 4) ill-defined margins, 5) cortical perforation, 6) inclusion of an unerupted tooth, 7) moderate to strong reactivity to p53, Ki-67, CD10, astrocyte elevated gene-1 (AEG-1) protein, carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX), calretinin (calbindin2; CALB2), and BRAF-V600E, and 8) negative to low immunopositivity to α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and syndecan-1 (CD138). However, multivariate analyses confirmed the significant associations of SBI with negative/low syndecan-1 reactivity (P = .003; adjusted odds ratio [ORadj.], 4.04; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], -.89 to -.48; Pearson's Correlation Coefficient [r] = -.74) and with KPS (P = .003; ORadj., 4.04; 95% CI, -.78 to -.17; r = -.54) only. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest an aggressive approach to MAs with negative to low syndecan-1 immunopositivity and/or in multi-morbid patients (who may have difficulty in access to health care). Otherwise, health care inequalities due to low KPS scores should be minimized or eliminated.

HPV DNA/RNA detection in various oral and oropharyngeal biomaterials identifies active HPV infections also in non-neoplastic tonsils. Transl Oncol 2020; 14:101002. [PMID: 33352503 PMCID: PMC7772224 DOI: 10.1016/j.tranon.2020.101002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2020] [Accepted: 12/15/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Previous studies describe a correlation between HPV-positivity and non-smoking in TSCC; p16INK4A-expression as surrogate-marker for HPV-DNA/RNA-positivity is discussed controversially. In the present study, these parameters are assessed prospectively. HPV-status of sputum and tonsillar-swabs was analyzed to determine their validity as surrogate-marker for tissue-HPV-status. TSCC- (n = 52) and non-neoplastic tonsillar tissue (n = 163) were analyzed. HPV-DNA- and HPV-RNA-status of total sputum, cellular fraction and supernatants, tonsillar-swabs and -tissue was determined by (RT)-PCR. Immunohistochemistry determined p16INK4A-expression. 23/163 (14.2%) non-neoplastic tonsils were HPV-DNA-positive; five patients (3 HPV16, 2 HPV11) had active HPV-infections (HPV-RNA-positive), in all biomaterials. 140/163 (85.9%) patients were either HPV-DNA-positive or HPV-DNA-negative in all samples. 21/52 (40.4%) TSCC-tonsils were HPV-DNA-positive; 17 patients were HPV-RNA-positive (14 HPV16; 4 HPV18). 40/52 (76.9%) TSCC-patients were congruent in all biomaterials. p16INK4A-expression alone would have misclassified the HPV-status of 14/52 (26.2%) TSCC-patients. This prospective study confirms the discrepancy between HPV-status and p16INK4A-expression and the significant correlation between non-smoking and HPV-DNA-positivity. HPV-sputum- and/or swab-results do not consistently match tissue-results, possibly having (detrimental) consequences if those were used to assess tissue-HPV-status. In the 5 patients with active HPV infection in the non-neoplasitic tonsils, tonsillectomy likely prevented subsequent development of TSCC.
