摘要
Dear Editor,Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC)is the sixth most common cancer globally[1,2].Despite the improvement in treatment modalities,up to 50%of HNSCC patients still develop recurrent/metastatic(R/M)disease[3],and platinum-based chemotherapy with cetuximab and/or pembrolizumab has become the standard of care[4].However,R/M HNSCC is challenging to treat,the prognosis is poor,and there is an unmet need for new therapeutic targets.
