Radiation-induced hypoxia modification can occur as early as W2, but onset varies between patients and was not necessarily associated with overall size change. Half of all patients had discordant changes in primary and nodal tumors. These findings have implications for patient selection and timing of dose de-escalation strategies in HPV-associated oropharyngeal carcinoma.
