The global
oropharyngeal cancer therapeutics market is expected to have
significant growth since the pipeline for oropharyngeal cancer is growing
rapidly.
Also, there
are no specific drugs available for the treatment of oropharyngeal cancer
providing increased opportunities for the major key players.
Oral cavity
tumor or oral tumor, is tumor that begins in the mouth (also known as the oral
cavity). Oropharyngeal malignancy begins in the oropharynx, which is the part
of the throat behind the mouth. The oral cavity comprises of lips, the inside
lining of the lips and cheeks (buccal mucosa), the teeth, the gums, the front
two-thirds of the tongue, the floor of the mouth below the tongue and the bony
roof of the mouth (hard palate). The area behind the wisdom teeth, called the
retromolar trigone is also sometimes included in the oral cavity, though it is
often considered part of the oropharynx.
