| Research Abstract |
This study is aimed to elucidate the significance of hypoxia-related genes to predict the tumor response to radiotherapy in patients with oropharyngeal cancer. We are currently conducting the analyses using real-time PCR and immunohistochemical study, and investigating whether hypoxia-related genes can predict the tumor response to radiotherapy in patients with oropharyngeal cancer.
