Two new studies published in the journal Cancer Research suggest that a positive HPV DNA is not enough to ascertain whether a person is suffering from HPV driven head and neck cancers. These studies identified alternative potential markers including viral load, viral gene expression and the evaluation of HPV DNA in combination with certain HPV assays. Prior research has established that HPV is a cause of some head and neck cancers, including oropharyngeal ...Thursday 20 September 2012
Positive HPV DNA Alone is Not Enough to Determine Presence of HPV Driven Head and Neck Cancers
Two new studies published in the journal Cancer Research suggest that a positive HPV DNA is not enough to ascertain whether a person is suffering from HPV driven head and neck cancers. These studies identified alternative potential markers including viral load, viral gene expression and the evaluation of HPV DNA in combination with certain HPV assays.
