Clinical and imaging examinations frequently have indeterminate results during cancer surveillance, which can lead to overtreatment and cause psychological and financial harm to the patient. This study addresses the critical need to enhance diagnostic precision and decision-making in the management of HPV-associated oropharyngeal cancer. This study evaluated the utility of tumor tissue-modified viral (TTMV)-HPV DNA to resolve indeterminate disease status following definitive treatment for HPV-associated oropharyngeal cancer.
