Establishment of four head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell lines: importance of reference DNA for accurate genomic characterisation

K. B. Patel, S. Prokopec, J. W. Barrett, J. S. Mymryk, P. C. Boutros, A. C. Nichols

Summary: This study aimed to establish early passage cell lines with matched normal reference DNA for precision medicine in drug response evaluation. It successfully established early passage cell lines and confirmed their association with the primary tumor through short tandem repeat profiling. The study highlights the importance of matched normal reference DNA for accurate mutational analysis in cell lines.

Risk Factors for Poor Survival Outcomes in Parotid Metastatic Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Francisco Laxague, Agnieszka Dzioba, Dhruv Jasani, Andrew Warner, David A. Palma, Pencilla Lang, Varagur Venkatesan, Nancy Read, Anthony C. Nichols, Kevin Fung, John Yoo, Adrian Mendez, Danielle MacNeil

Summary: This study analyzed risk factors associated with poor survival outcomes for metastatic cutaneous head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) to the parotid gland. The results showed that a shorter duration of adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) and excised tumor volume >= 50 cm(3) were predictive factors of reduced overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS). A shorter duration of RT was also associated with reduced freedom from locoregional recurrence (LRR).

The HPV Induced Cancer Resource (THInCR): a Suite of Tools for Investigating HPV-Dependent Human Carcinogenesis

Mikhail Salnikov, Steven F. Gameiro, Peter Y. F. Zeng, John W. Barrett, Anthony C. Nichols, Joe S. Mymryk

Summary: HPVs are highly infectious viruses that cause common sexually transmitted infections. They alter gene expression and cell growth to create a favorable environment for viral replication, which can also contribute to human carcinogenesis. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) has provided a comprehensive dataset for studying the role of HPV in cancer. The HPV Induced Cancer Resource (THInCR) is a suite of web-based tools that utilize TCGA data to investigate HPV-induced cancers and their impact on gene expression, gene methylation, patient survival, and immune features.

Can We Identify Predictors of Success in Contouring Education for Radiation Oncology Trainees? An Analysis of the Anatomy and Radiology Contouring Bootcamp

Paige Eansor, Madeleine E. Norris, Leah A. D'Souza, Glenn S. Bauman, Zahra Kassam, Eric Leung, Anthony C. Nichols, Manas Sharma, Keng Yeow Tay, Vikram Velker, Andrew Warner, Katherine E. Willmore, Nicole Campbell, David A. Palma

Summary: This study aimed to determine the factors that were predictors of learners' success in anatomy, radiology, and contouring education. The results showed that the ARC Bootcamp can improve students' anatomy and radiology knowledge, but only lower-performing students showed improvement in contouring ability.

Bell's palsy misdiagnosis: characteristics of occult tumors causing facial paralysis

Eun-Jae Chung, Damir Matic, Kevin Fung, S. Danielle MacNeil, Anthony C. Nichols, Ruba Kiwan, KengYeow Tay, John Yoo

Summary: This study reported the incidence and clinical course of patients who were initially misdiagnosed with Bell's palsy but were eventually proven to have occult neoplasms. Patients with progressive and irreversible facial paralysis should be suspected of having occult facial nerve neoplasms.

Surgical margins of the oral cavity: is 5 mm really necessary?

James Fowler, Yael Campanile, Andrew Warner, Francisco Laxague, Naif Fnais, Kevin Fung, Adrian Mendez, Danielle MacNeil, John Yoo, David Palma, Anthony Nichols

Summary: The study found that in head and neck surgery, patients with margins greater than 1 mm had similar local recurrence and overall survival rates compared to patients with margins greater than 5 mm, while patients with margins less than 1 mm showed worse survival outcomes.

External validation of a CT-based radiomics signature in oropharyngeal cancer: Assessing sources of variation

Philipp Guevorguian, Tricia Chinnery, Pencilla Lang, Anthony Nichols, Sarah A. Mattonen

Summary: This study validated a radiomics model for risk stratification in oropharyngeal cancer, which showed comparable performance to the clinical model and outperformed when combined with clinical data. Additionally, a model for detecting dental artifacts on computed tomography images was also validated.

Association of Primary Tumor Volume With Survival in Patients With T3 Glottic Cancer Treated With Radiotherapy A Study of the Canadian Head & Neck Collaborative Research Initiative

Hier, Gregoire Morand, Khalil Sultanem, Joseph Dort, John Lysack, Wayne Matthews, Steven Nakoneshny, Gia Gill, Adam Globerman, Paul Kerr, Pejman Maralani, Irene Karam, Antoine Eskander

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the association between primary tumor volume and oncologic outcomes in patients with T3 glottic cancer treated with (chemo)radiotherapy. The study found that increasing tumor volume was associated with worse overall survival and disease-free survival in these patients.

Summary: This study developed a molecular test to risk stratify HPV+ oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) patients. The immune score was strongly associated with disease-free survival and could identify patients who remain disease-free after treatment de-escalation.

A CT-based radiomics model for predicting feeding tube insertion in oropharyngeal cancer

Tricia Chinnery, Pencilla Lang, Anthony Nichols, Sarah Mattonen

Summary: This study developed a machine learning model based on radiomic features to predict the need for feeding tube insertion in patients with oropharyngeal cancer. The model achieved an AUC of 0.69 in the testing dataset. This has important implications for improving patients' quality of life.

Proteome and phosphoproteome signatures of recurrence for HPV+ head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Tomonori Kaneko, Peter Y. F. Zeng, Xuguang Liu, Rober Abdo, John W. W. Barrett, Qi Zhang, Anthony C. C. Nichols, Shawn Shun-Cheng Li

Summary: Researchers compared the proteome and phosphoproteome of recurrent and non-recurrent tumors in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. They found significant differences in cellular composition, function, and signaling, with recurrent tumors showing a pro-fibrotic and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, defective T cell function, and increased epithelial-mesenchymal transition potential.

Lenvatinib in multimodal therapy for unresectable radioactive iodine-naive differentiated thyroid cancer: A case report with literature review

Hugh Andrew Jinwook Kim, Anthony Charles Nichols, Ramanamurthy Rachakonda, Richard Inculet, Jinka Sathya, Irina Rachinsky, Eric Winquist

Summary: This article reports a case of unresectable or metastatic differentiated thyroid carcinoma treated with lenvatinib and external beam radiation therapy. The patient showed clinical, biochemical, and radiological response after 5 months of lenvatinib and subsequently received external beam radiation. 21 months post-initiation of treatment, the patient enjoys good quality of life without evidence of cancer progression.

Randomized Trial of Radiotherapy Versus Transoral Robotic Surgery for Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Long-Term Results of the ORATOR Trial

Anthony C. Nichols, Julie Theurer, Eitan Prisman, Nancy Read, Eric Berthelet, Eric Tran, Kevin Fung, John R. de Almeida, Andrew Bayley, David P. Goldstein, Michael Hier, Khalil Sultanem, Keith Richardson, Alex Mlynarek, Suren Krishnan, Hien Le, John Yoo, S. Danielle MacNeil, Eric Winquist, J. Alex Hammond, Varagur Venkatesan, Sara Kuruvilla, Andrew Warner, Sylvia Mitchell, Jeff Chen, Martin Corsten, Stephanie Johnson-Obaseki, Michael Odell, Christina Parker, Bret Wehrli, Keith Kwan, David A. Palma

Summary: The study found that for early-stage OPSCC, radiotherapy performed better in terms of long-term swallowing quality of life compared to transoral robotic surgery plus neck dissection, although this difference decreases over time. Some differences in QOL concerns gradually resolved in the long term, but it is worth noting that TORS patients started using more nutritional supplements at 3 years, and dry mouth scores increased over time in RT patients.

A Review of Health Care Disparities in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinomas

Sepehr Shabani, Kea Turner, Anthony C. Nichols, Xuefeng Wang, Krupal B. Patel

Summary: This article discusses the health care disparities in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas, particularly focusing on racial differences. It highlights that African American patients are diagnosed at a younger age, present with higher tumor burden, receive less definitive cancer treatment, and have increased mortality compared to non-African American patients. The article suggests that these disparities can be eliminated through education, screening programs, and expanding health care coverage.
