Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) is increasing in global prevalence and is divided into two types dependent on association with human papillomavirus (HPV), with a more favorable prognosis in HPV+ve tumors. Assay of HPV copy number in plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) provides a minimally inv...
