Description

The role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is shown in the development of oropharynx cancer. A direct correlation between the increased expression of VEGF and a positive response to chemoradiotherapy was revealed. The number of cases of squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx with high angiogenic activity is 1.7 times higher among the tumors that responded positively to chemoradiotherapy than those that responded negatively
