Fig. 6 — Between 2000 and 2015, the average prevalence of HPV-associated OSCC (HR-HPV DNA and p16INK4A-positive samples) amounted to 23% in Giessen. About 6% of all cases revealed discordant results of HPV DNA and p16INK4A tests, each. The survival of those patients (blue and yellow lines) was significantly inferior compared to patients with HPV-associated OSCC. However, it hardly differed from the survival of patients with HPV-negative OSCC (red line).
