Genome-wide association study identifies genetic susceptibility loci and pathways of radiation-induced acute oral mucositis

Abstract Background Radiation-induced oral mucositis (OM) is one of the most common acute complications for head and neck cancer. Severe OM is associated with radiation treatment breaks, which harms successful tumor management. Radiogenomics studies have indicated that genetic variants are associate...
