Human Papillomavirus Association and Genomic Exploration in Head-Neck Squamous Cell Carcinomas

Exploration of Human Papillomavirus Association and Genomic Characteristics in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinomas in Bangladesh

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) represents a significant public health burden in Bangladesh with a high incidence and mortality rate. While traditional risk factors like tobacco and betel nut chewing contribute to HNSCC incidence, the emergence of HPV-associated HNSCC presents a unique challenge. The main goal of this observational study is to explore the prevalence, risk factors, and biological mechanisms underlying food habits and HPV-driven HNSCC in the population and identify the genomic changes and characteristics related to this malignancy. This study will provide the prevalence of HPV-associated HNSCC and screening the HPV typing in the Bangladeshi population, identify risk factors, and any biologically driven mechanisms causing HNSCC.
