A Study Using Human Papillomavirus (HPV) DNA Testing to Detect HPV-Related Oropharyngeal Cancer (OPC)

A Study of Using Plasma Circulating Cell Free Human Papillomavirus Deoxyribonucleic Acid to Screen (cf HPV DNA) for HPV-Related Oropharyngeal Cancer

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 23 Sept 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The researchers think that a blood test (NavDx®) may be able to identify cancer early by looking for circulating DNA from Human Papillomavirus/HPV. Circulating DNA are small pieces of genes that are released into the bloodstream. The purpose of this study is to find out whether using this blood test to test for HPV DNA will help detect HPV-related Oropharyngeal Cancer/OPC.
