abstract = {PIK3CA alterations have been shown to be a frequent event
in oropharyngeal squamous cell cancer (SCC), especially in
human papillomavirus (HPV)-related tumors.Tissue microarrays
(TMAs) were used to evaluate pAKT(Ser473)/(Thr308), total
protein kinase B (AKT)(pan) and phosphatase and tensin
homolog (PTEN) expression in primary tumors and
corresponding nodal disease in oropharyngeal SCC. The HPV
status was determined in regard of HPV16 DNA and RNA.
Survival analysis was performed by using Kaplan-Meier
curves, log-rank testing, and multivariate Cox regression
analysis.HPV16 is a prognostic predictive marker for
advanced oropharyngeal SCC. pAKT(Ser473) and PTEN are highly
expressed in HPV-related oropharyngeal SCCs in contrast to
pAKT(Thr308). The pAKT(Ser473) expression increased from
primary tumors to progressive nodal disease $(21.1\%;$ P <
.011).Activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase
(PI3K)/pAKT(Ser473) frequently occurs in advanced
HPV-positive oropharyngeal SCC and elevated pAKT(Ser473)
levels represent a feature during progression of
oropharyngeal SCC, indicating a critical role of the
mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex. Further
studies are required to evaluate specific drugs targeting
PI3K/AKT/mTOR in consideration of PIK3CA alterations.},
