Oropharyngeal cancer Understanding
Oropharyngeal cancer: Overview
Oropharyngeal cancer is cancer in the oropharynx, which is the middle part of your throat (pharynx). The oropharynx includes the back one-third of the tongue, tonsils, soft palate and the side and back walls of the throat. Oropharyngeal cancer is a type of head and neck cancer that accounts for about 18,000 newly diagnosed cases in the U.S. every year. Most oropharyngeal cancers are squamous cell carcinomas, meaning that the cancer is affecting your squamous cells, which are thin flat cells found in the lining of most of your organs. And although rare, lymphoma, or cancer affecting cells in the lymphatic system, can also occur at the base of the tongue and tonsils, which are made up of lymph tissue. Symptoms include a sore throat that doesn’t go away; a lump in the throat, mouth or neck; coughing up blood; white patch in the mouth and other symptoms. The stages of oropharyngeal cancer span from Stage I (best prognosis) to Stage IV (worst prognosis). Oropharyngeal cancer diagnosis often begins with a physical exam conducted by doctor, or sometimes dentist, to check for any signs of abnormality such as a sore or lump in mouth or swollen lymph nodes in neck. Treatment for oropharyngeal cancer depends on several factors, including but not limited to: type of cancer, size of the tumor and location of the cancer, lymph nodes, speech and swallow function, and the patient’s overall medical condition.Oropharyngeal cancer - Pipeline Insight, 2024 report outlays comprehensive insights of present scenario and growth prospects across the indication.

Report Highlights
The companies and academics are working to assess challenges and seek opportunities that could influence Oropharyngeal cancer R&D. The therapies under development are focused on novel approaches to treat/improve Oropharyngeal cancer.Oropharyngeal cancer Emerging Drugs Chapters
This segment of the Oropharyngeal cancer report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.Oropharyngeal cancer Emerging Drugs
Cisplatin: Astra ZenecaCisplatin works by stopping the cancer cells from multiplying. It does this by binding together the strands of the cells' genetic material, DNA. Cisplatin binds to the N7 reactive center on purine residues and as such can cause deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage in cancer cells, blocking cell division and resulting in apoptotic cell death. The drug is being evaluated in Phase III clinical trials in combination with Durvalumab for the treatment of patients with Oropharyngealcancer.ISA101B: ISA Pharmaceuticals ISA101 consists of 12 synthetic long peptides (25 to 35 amino acids long) derived from the E6 and E7 oncogenic proteins of the HPV 16 virus, a strain responsible for over 50% of human cervical cancers and cervical intra-epithelial neoplasias, more than 85% of HPV-positive head and neck cancers, and similar substantial percentages of other premalignant and malignant HPV-induced lesions (such as VIN, vulvar cancer, AIN and anal cancer). It is currently administered either subcutaneously or intradermally. The drug is currently in Phase II stage of development for the treatment of patients with Oropharyngeal cancer.
