ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Tobacco and alcohol use are risk factors for Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck (SCCHN); however, there is growing recognition of HPV as a risk factor for SCCHN. HPV-related SCCHN is thought to affect mostly middle-aged individuals but as the US population ages, it is important to evaluate the change in incidence of HPV- and non-HPV-related SCCHN in individuals who are ≥65 years old.METHODS:
This was a retrospective study using data from a population-based cancer registry (SEER) to identify individuals ≥65 years old diagnosed with SCCHN between 2000 and 2016 also stratified by sex, race, and birth cohort. The subgroups of HPV-associated and non-HPV associated sites were analyzed independently. The incidence per year was calculated and joinpoint detection was used to identity significant changes in incidence trends and annual percent change (APC).RESULTS:
For HPV-associated sites from 2000 to 2016, there was an average annual rate of 10.8 per 100,000 individuals with an APC of 2.92% (p = <0.05). For HPV- and non-HPV-related SCCHN males had a higher annual rate compared to females, 54.5 versus 18.0 in non-HPV-related and 19.1 versus 4.4 in HPV-related sites. For non-HPV-related sites there was a decrease in APC across all stratified groups. For HPV-related sites there was an increase in APC across all stratified groups, especially males (APC 8.82% 2006-2016 p < 0.05) and White individuals (APC 8.19% 2006-2016 p < 0.05). When stratified by birth cohort, HPV-related SCCHN sites had a higher APC in ages 65-69 (8.38% p < 0.05) and 70-74 (8.54% p < 0.05).CONCLUSION:
Among the population ≥65 years old from 2000 to 2016, the incidence rate for HPV-related SCCHN sites has increased across all stratified groups, especially in White individuals, males, and age groups 65-74. The incidence rate for non-HPV-related sites has decreased across all stratified groups during this time.Palabras clave
