Could a blood test spare cancer patients harsh treatment?

NCT ID NCT05268614

Summary

This study is testing whether doctors can safely give less radiation and chemotherapy to people with a specific type of throat cancer linked to HPV. The goal is to see if using a blood test to measure HPV levels can identify patients who can get milder treatment with the same good results. This could help patients have fewer side effects and a better quality of life after treatment.
