Human papillomavirus (HPV) is causally linked to oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). Testing for plasma tumor tissue modified viral (TTMV)-HPV DNA has emerged as a biomarker strategy for post-treatment surveillance to identify recurrent disease. We aimed to understand the prognostic and predictive potential of TTMV-HPV DNA when monitoring patients who had developed recurrent or metastatic (R/M) HPV+OPSCC.
