Brief Summary:

SURVEILLE-HPV - A new post therapeutic surveillance strategy for HPV-driven oropharyngeal cancer based on HPV Circulating DNA measures.

HPV-positive oropharyngeal cancer patients have a much better prognosis that their HPV-negative counterparts. Despite this, Post Treatment Surveillance (PTS) strategy does not take into account HPV status.

HPV Circulating DNA (HPV Ct DNA) has emerged as a promising tool to assess the risk of cancer recurrence following treatment. We assume that this biomarker could be helpful to guide PTS.

The number of systematic PTS visits could be significantly reduced in patients with undetectable HPV Ct DNA whereas a closer clinical and radiological follow up could be performed in case of detectable HPV Ct DNA.

If confirmed, this new strategy could have several benefits including:

  • reduction of PTS visits for most HPV-positive patients which implies a potential cost decrease and
  • Identification of relapse at early stages (before the occurrence of symptoms)

Arm Intervention/treatment
No Intervention: Standard follow-up monitoring (16 visits over 5 years)

Patients enrolled in the control arm will be monitored according to SFORL guidelines. Physical Examination (PE) will be carried out:

- every 2 months the 1st year, every 3 months the 2nd year, every 4 months the 3rd year, every 6 months at 4 and 5 years.

Annual chest CT scan will be performed for current smokers & for those who have quit smoking less than 15 years ago.

Experimental: Lightened follow-up visits frequency (9 visits over 5 years), with HPV16 Ct-DNA dosing

Physical Examinations (with HPV16 Ct-DNA dosing) planned at Months 4,8,12,18,24,30,36,48,60 post treatment.

Annual chest CT scan will be performed for current smokers & for those who have quit smoking less than 15 years ago.

Any patient with a normal PE but positive HPV16 ct-DNA test during follow-up period will require a confirmation test ~1-2 months later.

If HPV16 ct-DNA positivity is confirmed, an H&N MRI /PET-CT will be performed. Then:

  • If MRI and PET-CT are negative, the patient will be examined every 2 months (PE and HPV16 Ct-DNA dosing) and MRI/PET-CT will be repeated every 4-6 months, until HPV16 Ct-DNA becomes undetectable.
  • If MRI and/or PET-CT is positive, the patient will get a biopsy to confirm disease recurrence. Once confirmed, the patient will have the necessary care, as per local practices, but will continue to be followed up within this study up to 5 years after treatment.
Biological: HPV16 Ct-DNA dosing

Droplet based digital PCR (ddPCR) technology is a novel method for performing digital PCR. A sample is fractionated into 20,000 droplets, PCR amplification of the template molecules occurs in each individual droplet.

ddPCR allows to generate quantitative and accurate data without standard curves and also present higher sensitivity compared to conventional quantitative PCR (qPCR). Indeed, this method is based on the realization of millions of single-molecule PCRs in parallel in independent compartment (here droplets of an emulsion) and consequently avoids the bias seen in conventional PCR.

ddPCR offers an optimized approach for the sensitive detection and quantification of low-target-abundance biological samples.

DNA extraction will be planned on 1 mL of plasma, which will further increase the sensitivity of our technique initially based on only 200µL of DNA extracted plasma.





Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Negative Predictive Value (NPV) of HPV16 ct-DNA [ Time Frame: 24 months ]
    The presence of HPV16 ct-DNA will be evaluated by ddPCR. NPV will be defined as 2 successive HPV16 ct-DNA negative results.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. 5- year Negative Predictive Value [ Time Frame: 48 and 60 months ]
    The presence of HPV16 ct-DNA will be evaluated by ddPCR. NPV will be defined as 2 successive HPV16 ct-DNA negative results.

  2. Positive Predictive Value (PPV) of HPV16 ct-DNA [ Time Frame: 18, 24, 48, and 60 months ]
    The presence of HPV16 ct-DNA will be evaluated by ddPCR. PPV will be defined as 2 successive HPV16 ct-DNA positive results.

  3. Rate of relapses detected by HPV16 ct-DNA [ Time Frame: 5.5 years ]
    The proportion of patients with relapse detected by HPV16 ct-DNA without any other symptoms.

  4. Disease-free survival [ Time Frame: 5.5 years ]
    Disease-free survival (DFS) is defined as the delay between date of inclusion and tumor relapse (local, regional, or distant) or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

  5. Loco-Regional recurrence [ Time Frame: From randomization to disease recurrence, up to 5.5 years ]
    Evaluation of the stage of the first loco-regional event detected by medical imaging. The stage will be defined by the size of the tumor and the number of invaded lymph nodes.

  6. Time of distant recurrence [ Time Frame: From randomization to disease recurrence, up to 5.5 years ]
    The length of time until manifestation of the first metastatic event detected by medical imaging.

  7. Overall survival [ Time Frame: From randomization to death from any cause, up to 5.5 years ]
    The overall survival is the length of time from randomization that patients enrolled in the study are still alive.

  8. Cost-effectiveness analysis of the proposed strategy [ Time Frame: 5.5 years ]
    To evaluate the economic cost of the lightened surveillance as compared to the standard treatment in terms of cost assessments and incremental cost-effectiveness ratio.
