## Abstract ## Background. The effectiveness of chemotherapeutic agents is proportional to the dose of the agents at their targets; however, the dose is limited by systemic toxicity. Attempts have been made to improve therapeutic effectiveness by increasing maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of chemothe

## Abstract Evidence suggests that human papillomavirus (HPV)16 seropositivity reflects past HPV16 exposure and is associated with risk for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Our objectives were to test the hypothesis that HPV16 seropositivity is associated with risk for HNSCC, to corre
## Abstract The chemosensitivities of 42 human head and neck squamous cell carcinomas were examined using the in vitro succinate dehydrogenase inhibition (SDI) test. The tumor tissues obtained at surgery or biopsy were exposed to five different antitumor drugs: adriamycin (ADM), cisplatin (CDDP), c
## Abstract ## Background. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines are important preclinical models in the search for novel and targeted therapies to treat head and neck cancer. Unlike many other cancer types, a wide variety of primary and metastatic HNSCC cell lines are available
## Abstract ## Background. Muscle wasting and weight loss were observed when carcinomas were induced in a murine model of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas. Our hypothesis was C3H/HeN mice would develop evidence of cachexia when injected with tumor cells ## Methods. Ageβ and weightβmatched
## Background: Squamous cell carcinoma (scc) of the head and neck region is rare in young patients and even less frequent in children 15 years or younger children. the patients reported in the literature are isolated cases and their management is always difficult because there is no large experienc
