Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The researchers think that a blood test (NavDx®) may be able to identify cancer early by looking for circulating DNA from Human Papillomavirus/HPV. Circulating DNA are small pieces of genes that are released into the bloodstream. The purpose of this study is to find out whether using this blood test to test for HPV DNA will help detect HPV-related Oropharyngeal Cancer/OPC.

No previous history of diagnosed HPV-related head and neck cancer

Participants have no previous history of diagnosed HPV-related head and neck cancer

NavDx

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Evaluation of HPV presence via NavDx (v1) at two (or three) timepoints

o If one of the two blood samples is positive, the subject will have a third NavDx (v1) test approximately 1 month after the second timepoint. If the test is positive, the subject will move to surveillance phase.
