‘How Long Do I Have?’ – Examining survival outcomes in laryngeal cancer patients managed with non‐curative intent in Northern <span>UK</span> : Insights from the Northern Head & Neck Cancer Alliance Retrospective Study Open
Introduction Historically, 15% of laryngeal cancer patients undergo non‐curative management, but pragmatic data on this group are limited. This information is crucial to help patients make informed decisions about their care. Supported by …

Computed tomography-based radiomic markers are independent prognosticators of survival in advanced laryngeal cancer: a pilot study Open
Objective Advanced laryngeal cancers are clinically complex; there is a paucity of modern decision-making models to guide tumour-specific management. This pilot study aims to identify computed tomography-based radiomic features that may pr…

Precision medicine in laryngeal cancer: protocol of the laryngeal cancer cohort (LARCH) Open
Introduction Laryngeal cancer disproportionately affects socioeconomically disadvantaged patients. Treatment can render a patient nil by mouth or in need of a permanent tracheostomy. In the past 30 years, survival has remained at best stat…
