Summary

This study tests a personalized approach to treating p16-positive oropharyngeal cancer (a type of throat cancer linked to HPV). The goal is to use less intense treatment—either surgery with tailored follow-up or customized chemoradiation—to maintain high cure rates while reducing side effects. The trial enrolls 150 adults with early-stage disease and tracks cancer control over two years.
