ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To understand the utility of circulating tumor human papillomavirus DNA (ctHPVDNA) blood testing for HPV-associated oropharynx squamous cell carcinoma (HPV + OPSCC) after definitive surgery. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Prospective cohort study of HPV(+)OPSCC patients with ctHPVDNA test data to assess its accuracy in detecting biopsy-confirmed disease at various post-treatment time points. Eligible patients had p16(+)/HPV(+) OPSCC and ctHPVDNA testing performed at any time pre-operatively and/or postoperatively. In cases of recurrence, patients were excluded from analysis if ctHPVDNA testing was not performed within 6 months of biopsy.RESULTS:
196 all-treatment-type patients had at least one PT ctHPVDNA test. The initial post-treatment (PT) ctHPVDNA sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV were 69.2 % (9/13), 96.7 % (177/183), 60.0 % (9/15), and 97.8 % (177/181). 61 surgery alone (SA) patients underwent 128 PT tests. The initial PT SA ctHPVDNA sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV were 100 % (2/2), 96.0 % (48/50), 50 % (2/4), and 100 % (48/48). 35 of 61 (57.4 %) SA patients had NCCN-based histopathologic indications for adjuvant (chemo)radiation but declined. 3 of 35 (8.57 %) had a positive PT ctHPVDNA test of which 1 of 3 (33 %) had biopsy-proven recurrence. Prospectively, ten patients had a PreT positive ctHPVDNA, underwent SA, refused adjuvant treatment, had an undetectable ctHPVDNA within 2 weeks of SA, and remained free of disease (mean 10.3 months).CONCLUSION:
The high specificity and NPV of ctHPVDNA after SA suggest ctHPVDNA may have a role in determining the omission of PT adjuvant (chemo)radiation in select patients.Palavras-chave
