Background. Human papillomavirus (HPV)related squamous cell cancer of the head and neck (SCCHN) has emerged as a distinct clinical entity. The expression of p16 protein can be used as a surrogate for HPV status. Methods. p16 immunohistochemistry (IHC) was assessed in archival paraffin-embedded material for 55 patients with locally advanced SCCHN treated with a uniform regimen of cisplatin and radiation. HPV status was assessed by colorimetric in situ hybridization (CISH) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results. Compared with p16- and HPV-negative patients, the p1.6- and HPV-positive patients had improved overall survival, disease-free survival, and locoregional recurrence rates. Conclusions. p16 IHC may serve as a useful surrogate and prognostic marker for patients with HPV-related SCCHN treated with cisplatin and radiation. (C) 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
