Modern Radiotherapy (RT) plays a key role in the management of Head and Neck Cancer (HNC). More precise delivery techniques, advanced image-guidance, and adaptive treatments characterize modern RT, enabling safer treatments with enhanced therapeutic window. Although patients identify the cure as their most important treatment outcome, complications related to treatment are a recognized problem as follow-up increases among those cured within this oncologic setting. This is particularly relevant for HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer (OPSCC), as these patients are younger, healthier, and more reactive to treatment. Thus, given the longer life expectancy, the jeopardizing impact of side effects on quality of life (QoL) and psychosocial functioning represent a forefront topic for HNC Researchers. De-escalation protocols have been developed recently, and, although not definitive, evidence is growing. This pertains particularly, but not exclusively, to HPV-related OPSCC.
