RECRUITING

De-escalated Radiation for Human Papillomavirus-Positive Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Oropharynx

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This is a single-arm, observational registry study determining the effects of reduced radiation dose in select patients with human papillomavirus (HPV) positive oropharyngeal cancer.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:18 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Pathologically (histologically or cytologically) proven (from primary lesion and/or lymph nodes) diagnosis of human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. HPV-positivity will be defined as tumors that are p16-positive by immunohistochemistry. Numerous studies have demonstrated near 100% agreement between p16 and HPV for patients with oropharyngeal cancer. As such, the use of p16 has been accepted as an appropriate surrogate for HPV status.
  2. * Clinical stage I, II, or III disease (AJCC Eighth Edition); Note: Patients with M1 tumors (distant metastases) are not eligible;
  3. * History/physical examination within 6 weeks prior to registration, including assessment of weight and recent weight loss;
  4. * Age ≥ 18;
  5. * PET/CT within 6 weeks prior to registration;
  6. * Patients must sign a study-specific informed consent form prior to study entry.
  7. * Both men and women and members of all races and ethnic groups are eligible for this trial. Non-English speaking, deaf, hard of hearing and illiterate individuals are eligible for this trial.
  1. * Prior invasive malignancy (except non-melanomatous skin cancer) unless disease free for a minimum of 3 years;
  2. * Patients who have had initial surgical treatment other than the diagnostic biopsy of the primary site or nodal sampling of the neck disease are excluded;
  3. * Prior systemic chemotherapy for the study cancer; note that prior chemotherapy for a different cancer is allowable;
  4. * Receipt of prior radiotherapy that would result in overlap with proposed field.
