SYMPOSIUM New paradigm in HNSCC 14:45 - 16:00 | AUDITORIUM

The treatment of head and neck cancer has been changing in the last decade. New markers have been identified giving options to treatment adaptation. The prevalence of HPV tumours in the oropharyngeal region is driving changes in volume definition, role of surgery and in potential de escalation in radiotherapy. The integration of these new concepts will be debated during the symposium.

Chair: E. Lartigau (France) Co-chair: P. Dubinsky (Slovakia)
