Summary

This study is testing whether a lower dose of chemotherapy and radiation after robotic surgery works as well as standard treatment for HPV-positive throat cancer, but with fewer side effects. It will include 40 patients who have had surgery to remove their cancer. The main goal is to see if patients remain cancer-free for two years while experiencing a better quality of life.
