Human papilloma virus (HPV) causes a subset of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) of the oropharynx. We combined targeted DNA- and genome-wide RNA-sequencing to identify genetic variants and gene expression signatures respectively from patients with HNSCC including oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OPSCC). DNA and RNA were purified from 35- formalin fixed and paraffin embedded (FFPE) HNSCC tumor samples.

Purpose: Human papillomavirus (HPV)-related squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (SCCHNs) tend to have a distinct prognosis. Socioeconomic and demographic factors associated with metastatic disease at presentation and diagnosis in patients with HPV-related SCCHN tumors were examined.

Methods: The National Cancer Database (NCDB) was queried to assess patients with HPV-related oropharyngeal carcinomas (HPVOPCAs) and HPV-related nonoropharyngeal carcinomas (HPVNOPCAs) diagnosed between 2010 and 2014.

Background: Small cell carcinomas of the head and neck (SmCCHNs) are rare neoplasms with an unfavorable prognosis. Population-based data describing survival and prognostic factors for SmCCHN are limited.

Methods: Data were obtained from the U.
