13 WHY BETTER PROGNOSIS? Higher locoregional control: HPV-positive tumors may harbor fewer or different genetic alterations, which can be associated with better response to therapy Cancer Genome Atlas Network Nature 2015

14 WHY BETTER PROGNOSIS? Higher locoregional control: HPV-positive tumors may harbor fewer or different genetic alterations, which can be associated with better response to therapy HPV-positive tumours have higher radiosensitivity, due to compromised DNA repair capacity In vitro data suggest high number of residual DNA double strand breaks after irradiation Compromised DNA repair capacity (RieckmannRadiotherOncol2013, Gupta IJROBP 2009, Kimple Cancer Res 2013, Busch Radiother Oncol 2013, Dok Cancer Res 2014 )

16 WHY BETTER PROGNOSIS? Higher locoregional control: HPV-positive tumors may harbor fewer or different genetic alterations, which can be associated with better response to therapy HPV-positive tumours have higher radiosensitivity, probably due to intact apoptotic response to radiation Immunologic response may play a role in the improved response to radio- and chemotherapy in HPV-positive tumours d rates secondary tumors Less field cancerization d frequency of poor prognostic factors Performance status, T-stage, younger age, reduced smoking
