Interventions
The treatment starts with neoadjuvant chemotherapy with docetaxel plus cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (TPF-NAC). If the patient exhibits sufficient response for a minimally invasive surgery, the patient

Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1) Patients with histologically proven HPV-positive OPSCC. HPV positivity is defined as positivity for p16 immunohistochemistry on biopsy specimens 2) 20 - 74 years old at the time of gained for informed consent 3) ECOG PS0-1 4) T1N1-3M0,or T2-3NanyM0 status according to the 8th Editions of the Union for International Cancer Control 5) Both primary lesion and regional lymph node metastasis are initially resectable at baseline. However, if upfront surgery is performed, it is estimated that at least one of the following scenarios would occur: (i) invasive surgery, such as a reconstruction technique after resection and radical neck dissection,would be required (ii) suspicion of extranodal extension by computed tomography(CT)or magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) (iii) a positive or close surgical margin estimated in a large primary tumor (iv) the involvement of multiple regional lymph nodes 6) No prior chemotherapy, radiotherapy or hormonal therapy against any cancers except for hormonal therapy for prostate cancer with more than 5 years of disease-free interval, or for radical endoscopic resection for head and neck cancer or esophageal cancer 7) Adequate functioning of major organ systems 8) Subjects gained consent in writing for participation of this study
