De-escalating radiotherapy in pathologic complete response oral cancer after neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy: equal survival, better life, and a biomarker guide

Adjuvant radiotherapy omission with maintenance immunotherapy appears to be a safe and patient-beneficial strategy for OSCC patients achieving pCR after NICT. The integrated TP53/B-cell biomarker model provides preliminary evidence for personalizing this de-escalation approach.

Abstract

Adjuvant radiotherapy omission with maintenance immunotherapy appears to be a safe and patient-beneficial strategy for OSCC patients achieving pCR after NICT. The integrated TP53/B-cell biomarker model provides preliminary evidence for personalizing this de-escalation approach.
