“…It also has been reported that residual HPV DNA is clinically useful as a new marker to predict local recurrence after conization for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia14–18 and after RT for invasive cervical carcinoma 19–28. In the study conducted by the University of the Ryukyus in Japan, local recurrence rate was significantly higher in patients with persistent HPV than in patients cleared for HPV who were treated with RT (34% vs 7.1%).…”

“…4 Several patient-, tumor -or treatment-related variables have been found to be predictive of outcome after RT alone or CCRT, such as age, HPV status, tumor size, histology, FIGO stage, LN involvement, and initial [ 18 F]FDG-PET/CT avidity. [5][6][7] Associations between the hemoglobin (Hb) count recorded during CCRT and patient outcome, such as OS and RFS, have also been reported in various retrospective trials but with conflicting results. [8][9][10][11] Although the only prospective trial evaluating the benefit of correcting the Hb count via red blood cell (RBC) transfusions in CC was clearly underpowered for this purpose, the study findings suggested that increasing the Hb count to >12 g/dL could decrease the risk of local relapse.…”

“…However, the response to radiotherapy varies widely among patients, underscoring the need to identify biomarkers to predict patients’ treatment outcome. Recently, the integration pattern of human papillomavirus (HPV) has been investigated as a promising biomarker for cervical cancer patients 1 .…”
