Importance: Optimal adjuvant treatment for patients with intermediate-risk cervical cancer remains controversial, and the benefit of adding chemotherapy to radiotherapy in this population is uncertain.
Objective: To evaluate whether adjuvant chemoradiotherapy is associated with improved overall survival compared with radiotherapy alone in patients with intermediate-risk cervical cancer. Secondary objectives included identifying clinical factors associated with the use of chemoradiotherapy.

Importance: Despite the favorable prognosis for HPV-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPV+ OPSCC), efforts to de-escalate treatment intensity, while maintaining low recurrence and mortality rates, have proven challenging. Identifying appropriate prognostic factors remains elusive; however, the association of pretreatment circulating tumor tissue viral-modified HPV (TTMV-HPV) DNA level with known characteristics of disease burden-clinical staging, characteristics of pretreatment imaging, and aggressive histopathologic features of surgical specimen-may offer insights that could shift treatment paradigms for HPV+ OPSCC.
Objective: To investigate the association of pretreatment TTMV-HPV DNA levels with clinical, radiologic, histopathologic, and outcome metrics in patients with HPV+ OPSCC.

The Nordic countries benefited from declines in cervical cancer incidence rates due to the implementation of screening programmes. However, it is unclear whether all social groups have equally benefited from these preventive services. We provide an assessment of the temporal trends in cervical cancer incidence by socioeconomic position (SEP) in Denmark, Norway, Finland and Sweden, using data from the Nordic Occupational Cancer Study.

The discovery of novel, selective inhibitors targeting CDK2 and PIM1 kinases, which regulate cell survival, proliferation, and treatment resistance, is crucial for advancing cancer therapy. This study reports the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of three novel pyrazolo[3,4-]pyridine derivatives (), confirmed spectral analyses. These compounds were assessed for anti-cancer activity against breast, colon, liver, and cervical cancers using the MTT assay.
