Abstract
OBJECTIVES Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is caused by human papilloma virus (HPV) infection of the aerodigestive tract that significantly impacts quality-of-life including the ability to communicate and breathe. Treatment was traditionally limited to serial ablative procedures in the O.R. with possible local adjuvant therapy, but new systemic therapies, such as Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors, are showing significant promise. This study aims to determine whether rationale exists for combination therapeutic approaches using VEGF inhibitors and/or immune checkpoint blockade. METHODS Using fresh specimens from the O.R., we performed flow cytometry on papilloma, normal adjacent tissue, and blood. Papilloma and surrounding tissue were examined for expression of PD-L1, PD-L2, Galectin-9, VEGFR2, and VEGFR3. CD8+ and CD4+ T cells were assayed for expression of PD-1, TIGIT, LAG3, and TIM3. RESULTS Our data shows that papilloma tissue exhibits significantly higher levels of PD-L1 and PD-L2 compared to adjacent tissue. Elevated levels of the VEGF receptor VEGFR3 were also observed in papilloma tissue. When examining T cells within the papilloma, elevated PD-1 and TIGIT expression was observed on CD8+ T cells, while levels of PD-1, TIGIT, and TIM3 were elevated on CD4+ T cells compared to PBMCs. Heterogenous marker expression was observed between individuals. CONCLUSIONS Our analysis shows that RRP tissue shows elevated levels of multiple immune check point targets and VEGFR3, with varied patterns unique to each papilloma patient. Some of these immune checkpoint markers already have novel immunotherapies available or in development, providing molecular rationale to offer these systemic treatments to selected patients affected by RRP alongside VEGF inhibitors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The lesion distribution of juvenile-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JORRP) during first-time surgery has been rarely reported. The purpose of this study was to describe the anatomical distribution of papilloma across 25 Derkay sites during initial surgery and to assess the impact of the lesion distribution on disease severity. METHODS Surgical videos and medical records of 106 patients with JORRP (27 aggressive and 79 nonaggressive cases) were retrospectively reviewed. Lesion locations were recorded using Derkay anatomical sites. Logistic regression was used to analyze the effect of the lesion distribution on disease severity. RESULTS Among the 106 patients, the true vocal cords (90.6% left, 84.0% right) were the most frequently involved site, followed by the false vocal cords (39.6% left, 35.8% right) and the anterior commissure (26.4%). Two patients (1.9%) had tracheal involvement. Patients with false vocal cord involvement (odds ratio [OR] = 3.425, 95% confidence interval [CI] [1.285, 9.132], P = .014) and a younger age at diagnosis (OR = .698, 95% CI [.539, .905], P = .007) were more likely to require more than 4 procedures in the year following first-time surgery. CONCLUSIONS Lesions were most common on the true vocal cords. False vocal cord involvement and a younger age at diagnosis were risk factors for disease severity.

Abstract
Juvenile onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis is a lifelong benign squamous lesion associated with HPV infection, particularly HPV6 and HPV11 genotypes. These lesions are rare, but can lead to laryngeal obturations, which can cause disabling dyspnea, or transform into squamous cell carcinoma. The aim here is to provide an epidemiological, biological and clinical overview of this pathology, particularly in children, in order to understand the issues at stake in terms of research and the development of medical and therapeutic management tools.

Abstract
PURPOSE Recent approaches for recurrent respiratory papillomatosis including local injection of bevacizumab and HPV vaccination show promise in reducing the need for frequent surgeries. In this study we propose a new combined approach of surgery, intralesional injection of 25 mg bevacizumab and HPV vaccine that can lead to resolution of RRP. MATERIAL AND METHODS Our study involved 5 patients treated with a combination of transoral microsurgery, intralesional injection of 25 mg bevacizumab, and HPV vaccination with Gardasil 9 between April 2020 and May 2023. Standard video laryngoscopy was performed to assess the presence of papilloma and Derkay score was used to assess the severity of disease. RESULTS All 5 patients completed the study successfully and a complete response was achieved by all. The follow-up ranged from 8 to 45 months. The mean total Derkay score before treatment was 41 (range 25 to 52) and after the combined approach was 0 both anatomically and clinically in all patients. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates the effectiveness of a combined treatment approach for RRP involving surgical intervention, intralesional injection of bevacizumab, and HPV vaccination.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Narrow-band imaging (NBI) is considered useful for detecting respiratory papillomatosis. However, the choice between preoperative and intraoperative NBI depends on the facility. We investigated the usefulness of NBI and determined whether preoperative NBI can replace intraoperative NBI with a comparable detection rate. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study conducted at single a tertiary care center, patients with respiratory papillomatosis treated between 2017 and 2022 were enrolled. We systematically compared preoperative white light imaging (WLI) with preoperative and intraoperative NBI. The primary endpoints were the papilloma detection rate and lesion site assessed by the Derkay scoring system. The secondary endpoints were the risk factors for increased Derkay scores. RESULTS The study included 127 patients with papilloma. Intraoperative NBI yielded significantly higher Derkay scores than preoperative WLI (p < 0.001) and preoperative NBI (p = 0.004). The papilloma detection rates of preoperative WLI and preoperative NBI were not significantly different. Intraoperative NBI detected more lesions than preoperative NBI in 37 of 127 (29%) patients; the overall number of additional lesions was 47 of 279 (17%). Compared with preoperative NBI, intraoperative NBI yielded significantly higher scores for the vocal cords (p = 0.005), false vocal cords (p = 0.010), and ventricle of the larynx (p < 0.001). Elevated Derkay scores were significantly associated with male sex (p = 0.012) and alcohol consumption (p = 0.007). CONCLUSION Intraoperative NBI is more accurate in detecting papillomatous lesions, and preoperative NBI cannot replace intraoperative NBI. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 134:1820-1824, 2024.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy of INO-3107, a DNA immunotherapy designed to elicit targeted T-cell responses against human papillomavirus (HPV) types 6 and 11, in adult patients with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP; NCT04398433). METHODS Eligible patients required ≥2 surgical interventions for RRP in the year preceding dosing. INO-3107 was administered by intramuscular (IM) injection followed by electroporation (EP) on weeks 0, 3, 6, and 9. Patients underwent surgical debulking within 14 days prior to first dose, with office laryngoscopy and staging at screening and weeks 6, 11, 26, and 52. Primary endpoint was safety and tolerability, as assessed by treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Secondary endpoints included frequency of surgical interventions post-INO-3107 and cellular immune responses. RESULTS An initial cohort of 21 patients was enrolled between October 2020 and August 2021. Fifteen (71.4%) patients had ≥1 TEAE; 11 (52.4%) were Grade 1, and 3 (14.3%) were Grade 3 (none treatment related). The most frequently reported TEAE was injection site or procedural pain (n = 8; 38.1%). Sixteen (76.2%) patients had fewer surgical interventions in the year following INO-3107 administration, with a median decrease of 3 interventions versus the preceding year. The RRP severity score, modified by Pransky, showed improvement from baseline to week 52. INO-3107 induced durable cellular responses against HPV-6 and HPV-11, with an increase in activated CD4 and CD8 T cells and CD8 cells with lytic potential. CONCLUSION The data suggest that INO-3107 administered by IM/EP is tolerable and immunogenic and provides clinical benefit to adults with RRP. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3 Laryngoscope, 133:3087-3093, 2023.

Abstract
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a rare, debilitating neoplastic disorder caused by chronic infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) type 6 or 11 and characterized by growth of papillomas in the upper aerodigestive tract. There is no approved medical therapy, and patients require repeated debulking procedures to maintain voice and airway function. PRGN-2012 is a gorilla adenovirus immune-therapeutic capable of enhancing HPV 6/11-specific T cell immunity. This first-in-human, phase 1 study (NCT04724980) of adjuvant PRGN-2012 treatment in adult patients with severe, aggressive RRP demonstrates the overall safety and clinically meaningful benefit observed with PRGN-2012, with a 50% complete response rate in patients treated at the highest dose. Responders demonstrate greater expansion of peripheral HPV-specific T cells compared with nonresponders. Additional correlative studies identify an association between reduced baseline papilloma HPV gene expression, greater interferon responses and expression of CXCL9 and CXCL10, and greater papilloma T cell infiltration in responders. Conversely, nonresponders were characterized by greater HPV and CXCL8 gene expression, increased neutrophilic cell infiltration, and reduced T cell papilloma infiltration. These results suggest that papilloma HPV gene expression may regulate interferon signaling and chemokine expression profiles within the tumor microenvironment that cooperate to govern clinical response to therapeutic HPV vaccination in patients with respiratory papillomatosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the clinical outcomes of morphology-guided surgical treatment for adult laryngeal and hypopharyngeal hemangioma. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients diagnosed with adult laryngeal and hypopharyngeal hemangioma by outpatient laryngoscopy and received surgical treatments were retrospectively included. Size and morphology were classified to guide the choose of surgical procedures including CO2 laser excision, CO2 coagulation + bleomycin injection and potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) laser + bleomycin injection. The baseline information and pre-, postoperative laryngoscopies were collected, the outcomes were followed up and analyzed. RESULTS A total of 68 patients were included, 7 cases with exophytic and non-bulky hemangioma received CO2 laser excision, 20 cases received CO2 laser coagulation + bleomycin injection and 25 cases with KTP + bleomycin injection, another 16 cases with pure bleomycin injection were included as comparison. There was no difference of baseline analysis among the groups (P > = 0.05). Positive outcomes were achieved in most cases of CO2 excision (100%), CO2 coagulation + bleomycin (90.0%) and KTP + bleomycin (84.0%) groups, which were better than pure bleomycin (56.3%, p = 0.001). CO2 or KTP, associated to Bleomycin, gave same results on same lesions (P = 0.132). CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE Morphology of hemangioma may help in the selection of surgical procedures. CO2 coagulation can be used as a potential substitute for KTP in the treatment of adult laryngeal and hypopharyngeal hemangioma.

Abstract
Background: Respiratory papillomatosis is one of the common benign lesions of the airway that is often difficult to treat and carries significant morbidity. Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody that acts upon vascular endothelial growth factor receptor and is known to have an effect in respiratory papillomatosis. This study aims to systematically review the literature on efficacy of intralesional Bevacizumab in juvenile onset respiratory papillomatosis. Materials and methods. A systematic search of literature in various databases was conducted. The search was restricted to the English language, however, no restrictions were made regarding the date of publication keeping December 31st, 2020 as the last date of publication. We strictly complied with the PRISMA guidelines. Results. Of 145 articles analyzed, only 3 were selected as eligible and a total of twenty-one cases were evaluated. There was improvement in anatomic Derkay score after initiating intralesional Bevacizumb with reduction in the number of surgeries. Where reported, voice related functional outcomes also were also improved. No adverse effect related to the drug was reported. Conclusion: Intralesional Bevacizumab can be a promising efficacious, and safe adjuvant in the management of JORRP. Well-designed studies are further required in the future to prove its efficacy and safety over other adjuvants available.

Abstract
This study aims to investigate the efficacy of office-based potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) 532-nm laser in the management of recurrent laryngeal papillomatosis (RLP) following other treatments. A retrospective assessment was performed on 55 patients in 259 cases of RLP between 2012 and 2019. Derkay scores were obtained for all patients who underwent 532-nm KTP laser procedure (6 W of power with a continuous output mode) prior to treatment and after treatment. Analysis of parameters is based on the distribution characteristics of data. An ordinal logistic regression was also performed. Patients received a median of 3 (range 1-24) office-based KTP laser treatments. Among them, 96.36% (53 patients) were previously on cold steel equipment, CO2 laser, or microdebrider treatment under general anesthesia, and all previous treatments on them had failed. One patient progressed to invasive cancer, so he was excluded from the following analyses. After final KTP treatment, 36 patients (66.67%) received complete resolution with follow-up time ranging from 12.9 to 80.53 months (median 55.54 months). Results of subjective voice-quality indicators such as VHI-30 and GRBAS all improved greatly at the last follow-up. The initial Derkay scores and treatment intervals were found to be predictive of complete lesion remission. Arytenoid involvement may also correlate with lesion resolution. Serial office-based KTP treatment is an effective option for RLP patients, with ideal disease control and voice quality preservation. KTP laser therapy should be repeated with an interval of 1 month from the beginning of treatment until the lesion has been evaluated and subsided. Non-bulk or scattered laryngeal papilloma is an appropriate indication for KTP laser treatment.

Abstract
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) has a wide range of severity. We investigate the relationship between human papillomavirus (HPV) particle production and severity of RRP. From September 2005 to June 2021, 68 RRP samples (from 29 patients) were included. HPV type was determined. HPV viral load, physical status, and demographic and clinical characteristics were assessed. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed for p16, Ki-67, L1, and E4. We used NanoSuit-CLEM (correlative light and electron microscopy) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to examine the samples. The total number of surgeries in HPV-positive and HPV-negative cases were 3.78 (n = 55/68, range: 1-16) and 1.30 (n = 13/68, range: 1-3), respectively (p = 0.02). IHC showed that L1 and E4 were correlated and expressed on the tumour surface. NanoSuit-CLEM and TEM revealed HPV particles in L1-positive nuclei. L1 IHC-positive cases had a shorter surgical interval (p < 0.01) and more frequent surgeries (p = 0.04). P16 IHC, viral load, and physical status were not associated with disease severity. This study visualised HPV particle production in RRP for the first time. Persistent HPV particle infection was associated with severity. We suggest L1 IHC for evaluating RRP severity in addition to the Derkay score.

Abstract
Objectives Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a benign, rare disease caused by Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) that can be divided into juvenile and adult forms. The course of the disease is variable, but is usually more aggressive in the juvenile form. The standard surgical treatment is represented by CO2 laser resection, although photoangiolytic lasers represent a valid alternative. Adjuvant therapies have been proposed for disease control in case of frequent surgical resections or spreading into the lower airways. In recent years, the development of immunotherapy led to the use of bevacizumab either intratumorally or intravenously, but the most promising therapeutic development is represented by HPV vaccination. This paper aims to present a narrative review of the literature and the experience of three different University Centres in the treatment of RRP. Methods A retrospective analysis of the clinical charts of all patients affected by laryngeal papillomatosis and treated in three different University Centres between 2002 and 2022 was performed. The following parameters were collected: sex, age at first evaluation, sites of larynx involved, HPV type, type of first surgical treatment, presence and number of recurrences, surgical treatment of recurrences, adjuvant therapies, side effects and status at last follow-up. Results Seventy-eight patients were available for evaluation. Of these, 88% had adult onset RRP (Ao-RRP) and 12% juvenile onset RRP (Jo-RRP). The glottis was the most frequently involved subsite; all patients were submitted to surgical resection with CO2 laser under general anaesthesia. Recurrences appeared in 79% of the patients, the patients who did not recur were all adults. The mean number of recurrences was 9 (range 1-110). Recurrences were more frequent in children (M = 20; range 2-110) than adults (M = 5; range 1-21). Thirty-two (52%) of the 62 patients who recurred were re-treated with CO2 laser under general anaesthesia, while office-based treatment with a photoangiolytic laser was preferred in the remaining 30 (48%) patients. Adjuvant treatments were applied in 26 patients. The analysis of the course of the disease showed that in the 9 patients with Jo-RRP, 6 (67%) were free of lesions at the last follow-up, while the other 3 (33%) had papillomas. Of the 69 patients with Ao-RRP, 53 (77%) were alive and free of disease at the last visit, 14 (21%) were alive with disease, 1 (1%) was lost at follow-up and 1 (1%) died for other disease. Severe side effects were not observed except for 2 patients, who developed posterior glottic stenosis. Conclusions Our results confirmed the literature review. RRP is a potentially aggressive disease, especially in juvenile onset. Surgical resection is still first-line treatment, but in case of multiple recurrences the use of adjuvant therapies must be taken into consideration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a currently incurable benign neoplasm caused by human papilloma virus (HPV) infection. It usually reduces voice, respiratory, and general quality of life, and is sometimes life-threatening. Patients usually need repeated operations. The use of adjuvant bevacizumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting vascular endothelial growth factor A, has been described in several case reports, with a good efficacy and safety profile. METHODS We report the cases of five patients with aggressive RRP who were treated with adjuvant systemic bevacizumab in a single Belgian tertiary center. RESULTS A complete response was achieved in four patients after a median of 4.5 months, and a partial response in one. In all cases, the number of surgeries was drastically reduced, and quality of life improved. Toxicity was easily managed. CONCLUSIONS Systemic bevacizumab seems to be an effective and safe adjuvant treatment for aggressive RRP.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To create a model of the anatomic distribution, recurrence, and growth patterns of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). STUDY DESIGN Prospective, multi-institutional cohort study. METHODS Adult patients with a diagnosis of RRP evaluated between August 1, 2018 and February 1, 2021 at six participating centers were invited to enroll. At each office or operating room encounter, laryngologists recorded the location and size of RRP lesions using a 22-region schematic. A generalized linear mixed effects model was used to compare region variations in lesion prevalence and recurrence. RESULTS The cohort comprised 121 patients: 74% were male, 81% had been diagnosed with adult-onset RRP, and a plurality (34%) had undergone 0 to 3 RRP interventions prior to enrollment. Across the study period, the odds of a lesion occurring in the glottis was significantly higher (odds ratio [OR]: 26.51; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 11.76-59.75, P < .001) compared with all other areas of the larynx and trachea. Within the true vocal folds, the membranous vocal folds had significantly higher odds (OR: 6.16; 95% CI: 2.66-14.30, P < .001) of lesion occurrence compared to the cartilaginous vocal folds. Despite these strong trends in lesion distribution, there were no differences in the odds of lesion recurrence, growth, or in the time to recurrence, between anatomic subsites. CONCLUSIONS RRP lesions are most likely to occur in the glottis, particularly the membranous vocal folds, compared with other regions of the larynx or trachea. However, all lesions demonstrate similar behavior with respect to recurrence, growth, and time to recurrence regardless of anatomic location. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3 Laryngoscope, 132:2403-2411, 2022.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Juvenile-onset RRP (JoRRP) is considered a rare disease with high morbidity and healthcare costs. The management of RRP has received much scientific attention in recent years and several treatment methodologies have been explored, including therapeutic use of HPV vaccine. There has been increasing interest in the off-label use of the vaccine in virus-induced disease processes such as RRP, due to its immunomodulatory effect and activating role on the innate and adaptive immune system. This review explores the efficacy of the HPV vaccination as a therapeutic tool in the pediatric population. METHODS The review of the English literature included three electronic databases, PubMed, SCOPUS, and Cochrane, without publication date restrictions. Studies and reports identified by the database search were reviewed and assessed by two independent reviewers. RESULTS The literature searches identified 768 unique citations, from which 204 duplicates were removed (n = 564). A total of 547 articles were excluded as they did not meet our inclusion criteria. A total of 12 studies (3 experimental studies, 3 case series, 6 case reports) that met the inclusion criteria and reported one or more of the outcomes of interest were included for our review. The assessment of the outcome measures evaluated (number of surgeries during the follow-up period, ISI, SPM, Derkay or severity scores, and remission status) revealed that eight out of 12 studies included in the review showed varying degrees of potential benefits from the administration of the vaccine as a treatment modality compared to surgical interventions and/or concurrent adjuvant therapies alone. CONCLUSION We conclude that while the therapeutic use of HPV vaccination has shown promise for some JoRRP patients, it overall remains uncertain with the currently available data. There is a need for a prospective multi-centric trial with a larger sample size to fully characterize the potential use of the vaccine in the management of JoRRP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune checkpoint blockade can provide clinical benefit for patients with advanced cancer. Here, we report durable disease control over many years following PD-L1 blockade through induction of a viral antigen-specific T cell response in an adult patient with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis. METHODS Antigen-specific T cell response assays, single cell RNA-sequencing, and RNA-scope was used to study clinical tissues. RESULTS An HPV6 E2-specific T cell clone restricted to HLA-B*55, present at low frequency in the pre-treatment papilloma, significantly expanded after six doses of PD-L1 blockade and remained present and functional at the site of initial response in the larynx as a tissue resident memory T cell for 4 years. An associated reduction in E2 target gene was observed following treatment. CONCLUSIONS Although demonstrated in a single exceptional responder, these results highlight that immune checkpoint blockade may induce durable, viral antigen-specific immunity of sufficient magnitude to control disease in patients with nonmalignant disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Metformin is an oral agent used for the management of type 2 diabetes. As a result of its ability to alter cellular metabolic requirements, metformin also possesses antiproliferative properties. Metformin has been shown to reduce mutagenesis in several malignancies, however has never been described as a treatment option for recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). The aim of this study is to present a case series of non-diabetic patients with adult-onset RRP who were treated with metformin. METHODS Case series. RESULTS Five patients (age 48 ± 17.82, range 35-68, 4 males, 1 female) were identified with a history of laryngeal RRP who were treated with 500 mg of metformin twice daily. Follow-up time ranged from 11 to 105 months. Two patients had spontaneous regression of RRP lesions within months of starting metformin. Four patients had reduced time intervals between surgical procedures after starting metformin. All patients tolerated metformin well with only minor side effects of self-limiting light-headedness, facial flushing or gastrointestinal upset. CONCLUSION Metformin is a low-risk medication that was used to reduce progression and burden of disease in 5 patients with RRP. Further studies should investigate the sole or adjunct use of metformin for treatment of RRP.

Abstract
PURPOSE Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a disorder characterized by the frequent recurrence of benign neoplasms in the respiratory tract. Some patients with RRP develop laryngeal papilloma, while others present with extralaryngeal lesions in the nose, pharynx, and trachea. The present study aimed to determine the pharyngeal sites where RRP-related lesions develop more frequently. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 127 patients treated at our department between January 2015 and December 2020. We compared the human papilloma virus (HPV) infection status and differences in tumor location between 41 patients with RRP and 86 patients with pharyngeal papilloma (PP). RESULTS In the RRP group, extralaryngeal papillomata were observed in 10 patients, eight (19.5%) of whom presented with lesions in the inferior wall of the nasopharynx (IWoN). On the contrary, only one patient with PP (1.1%) developed papillomata in this region. IWoN papilloma was significantly more likely to arise in the RRP group than in the PP group (p = 0.0004). CONCLUSION In RRP, pharyngeal lesions frequently arise in the IWoN, while this region remains largely unaffected in patients with PP.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify the recurrence rate and risk factors for recurrence in patients with juvenile-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JORRP). METHODS A retrospective review was performed for all JORRP patients who underwent surgery between 2002 and 2019 at our institution. The demographic characteristics and clinical parameters were recorded. Kaplan-Meier estimates and Cox proportional hazards models were used to analyze the rate of recurrence and its risk factors. RESULTS Our study included 721 patients. The cumulative recurrence rates at 1, 5, and 10 postoperative years following initial surgery were 74.2%, 90.0%, and 94.3%, respectively. Age at diagnosis younger than 4.5 years (HR = 2.380, 95% CI [1.169-4.846], P = 0.017), high Derkay anatomical score (HR = 1.136, 95% CI [1.043-1.236], P = 0.003) and HPV type 11 infection (HR = 2.947, 95% CI [1.326-6.551], P = 0.008) were independent risk factors for recurrence. Adjuvant therapy with interferon was less likely to recur (HR = 0.237, 95% CI [0.091-0.616], P = 0.003). Additionally, gender, tracheotomy, mode of delivery, parity, expression of Ki-67, HPV vaccination, and surgical treatment method were not independently associated with recurrence (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION Age at diagnosis younger than 4.5 years, high Derkay anatomical score and HPV type 11 infection were associated with an increased risk for recurrence in patients with JORRP. Adjuvant therapy with interferon may reduce the risk of recurrence.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the curative effect of Potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser and pingyangmycin injection for adult laryngeal hemangiomas (ALH). Methods: This was a retrospective study conducted on patients treated with either KTP laser or pingyangmycin injection to assess the efficacy of both treatment and compare the effects on different types of adult laryngeal hemangioma. Results: The ordinal logistic regression test showed the surgery methods had no effect on the therapeutic results. On the contrary, the shape of ALH and the interaction between surgical procedures and ALH shape affected the prognosis of the ALH. This meant that the shape of ALH might be a confounding factor affecting the therapeutic effect of ALH. Thus, the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test which is a stratification analysis was used to assess the interaction between surgical procedures and ALH shape. Then better results were achieved using the KTP laser for the plane and raised types of ALH. Conclusions: The selection of surgical procedures (the KTP laser or pingyangmycin injection approaches) affects the treatment of ALH. For plane and raised ALH, the KTP laser may be recommended.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES After surgical resection of papilloma, adjuvant therapy may be recommended for the control of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). As the efficacy of adjuvant therapy remains unproven, the aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of cidofovir versus bevacizumab used as adjuvant therapies for the control of RRP. METHODS This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study was performed in a national respiratory disease referral centre. Patients with RRP were recruited prospectively and were divided into juvenile or adult RRP. Participants were randomly assigned to receive adjuvant therapy with cidofovir, bevacizumab or placebo. The study drug or placebo was administered after direct microlaryngoscopy with papilloma resection using cold instruments. The Derkay severity score and the Voice Handicap Index (VHI) were assessed at 3-6-week intervals, for a total of 3 visits. Follow-up included VHI and Derkay score assessments at 2-month intervals over the course of one year. Annual rates before and after surgical treatment were compared. RESULTS Five children and 11 adults were enrolled in the study. After one year, the group treated with cidofovir had a significant decrease in Derkay score (p=.027). No difference between treatment arms was observed in the annual surgery rate. There was a significant decrease in the VHI score in all treatment groups (p<.001), and no significant difference was observed between groups (p=.32). CONCLUSION While we observed a significant decrease in RRP severity with intralesional cidofovir, we were unable to provide proof of efficacy of intralesional bevacizumab.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of our study was to evaluate the prevalence of different HPV genera-alpha, beta and gamma-in Juvenile onset Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (JoRRP) and examine the association of type and genus-specific viral features with the clinical outcome of disease. METHODS This retrospective observational study included consecutive patients with JoRRP who were treated in a referral centre between October 2000 and October 2020. All patients underwent cold excision and laser vaporisation of papillomatous lesions. Samples were analysed for the presence of 120 viral genotypes (22 alpha-HPV, 46 beta-HPV, 52 gamma-HPV) using a highly sensitive multiplex genotyping assay. RESULTS Twenty patients with JoRRP, aged 0.3-11 years, were included, with a median follow-up of 13.5 years. All samples were HPV DNA positive: 20 (100%) for alpha-HPV DNA; 7 (35%) for beta-HPV DNA; 0 for gamma-HPV DNA. Three groups were defined according to the number of infections: seven cases (35%) with HPV mono-infection; ten cases (50%) with HPV double-infection; three cases (15%) with ≥ 3 HPV infections. At diagnosis, patients with ≥ 3 HPV infections reported higher median Derkay's score than those with mono-infection (21 vs 14, P = 0.018). Number of HPV infections was also associated with clinical outcomes, with an average of 0.5 surgical procedures/year in patients with mono-infection, 1.2 for double-infection, 2.6 for ≥ 3 infections (P = 0.006). CONCLUSION Despite the small sample size, these preliminary data support an association between the number of different alpha and beta HPV co-infections and the clinical severity of the disease.

Abstract
Juvenile-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JORRP) is the most common benign laryngeal neoplasm in children and is considered to be primarily caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) types 6 and 11. In the present study, we performed RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) of 8 tumors and 4 adjacent nontumor tissues to explore the transcriptional profiles of JORRP tumors. A total of 1151 upregulated genes involved in the IL-17 signaling pathway and 1620 downregulated genes involved in dysregulated inflammatory responses were reported. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) assays confirmed the upregulation of IL-17C in JORRP tumors compared with paired adjacent nontumor tissues. Real-time PCR (RT-PCR) assays showed positive correlations between CXCL1 and CXCL8 and the Derkay Clinic Score of JORRP patients. We further overexpressed the HPV6 or HPV11 E6 and E7 oncogenes in SNU-1076 head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines and carried out RNA-seq. We found that HPV6-E6-E7 gene overexpression resulted in only 16 upregulated genes and 1 downregulated gene; however, HPV11-E6-E7 gene overexpression resulted in 1776 upregulated genes and 461 downregulated genes compared with the control cell lines. The DEGs of HPV11-E6-E7 gene overexpression were positively enriched in the DNA replication-related terms by Gene Ontology (GO) analysis and the IL-17 signaling pathway by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. Taken together, our present findings revealed IL-17 signaling pathway-related gene profiles that might contribute to disease pathogenesis and that the HPV11 E6 and E7 oncogenes promote disease progression by enhancing tumor growth and activating the IL-17 signaling pathway in JORRP patients. Importance JORRP is primarily caused by HPV 6 and HPV11 infection, however, the gene signatures of tumor are less understood currently. In the present study, we performed RNA-sequencing and found up-regulated genes associated with "IL-17 signaling pathway" and down-regulated genes associated with inflammatory-related pathways. Further RNA-sequencing was performed in HPV6-E6-E7 or HPV11-E6-E7 over-expressing SNU-1076 HNSCC cells lines to explore the potential pathogenic molecular mechanisms of HPV virus. We found HPV11-E6-E7 over-expression resulted in gene expressions related to DNA replication and IL-17 signaling pathway. Our results suggested enriched IL-17 signaling pathway resulted from HPV11 infection might contribute to JORRP pathogenesis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is known for its recurrent relapse despite various surgical and non-surgical treatments. Vascular Endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor expression on tissue is reported to be raised in RRP, and anti-VEGF targeted treatment is being explored to decrease recurrences. This study aims to identify the patients most suitable for systemic anti-VEGF therapy. METHODS The study design was a prospective cohort evaluation. The study group included all consecutive cases of RP treated surgically from November 2016-June 2019. Tissue receptor expression and serum levels of VEGF were assessed by immunohistochemistry and ELISA assay. Control samples for normal levels obtained by serum samples of healthy individuals and tissue samples obtained from healthy non-inflamed peripheral tissue of laryngectomy specimens. The tissue expression and serum levels of VEGF were compared with various disease-related factors of RP. RESULTS 32 cases of RRPs were included in the study with a median age of 20.85 years (range: 3-60 years). The glottis was involved in all patients and tracheobronchial involvement was seen among 6 patients (18.75%). The systemic and tissue expression of VEGF-A was significantly higher among cases than controls (p= <0.001). The serum level of VEGF-A was significantly higher among cases with higher Derkay's score (>20) (p = 0.02) and tissue expression of VEGF-A was significantly higher in tracheobronchial RRP (p = 0.04). CONCLUSION Patients of RP with tracheobronchial involvement and high Derkay's score with strong tissue receptor expression & high serum level of VEGF can be identified as the patients wherein anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody treatment is more likely to be effective and merits further investigation to prove this.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To present an uncommon but serious, recently identified complication of checkpoint inhibitor therapy in a patient treated with pembrolizumab infusion for disseminated recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). METHODS Case report. RESULTS A 43-year-old woman with underlying asthma developed acute hypoxic respiratory failure within 24 hours of her third infusion of pembrolizumab for treatment of intractable, disseminated recurrent respiratory papillomatosis. Pulmonary function testing revealed a severe intra-thoracic obstructive ventilatory defect. Discontinuation of pembrolizumab, ventilatory support, and treatment with systemic and inhaled corticosteroids resulted in resolution of respiratory failure; however, her underlying asthma remains poorly controlled. CONCLUSION To our knowledge, this case is the first report of pembrolizumab-induced obstructive respiratory failure in a patient being treated for RRP.

Abstract
Juvenile-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JoRRP) is the most common benign neoplasm of the larynx in children, presenting with significant variation in clinical course and potential for progression to malignancy. Since JoRRP is driven by human papillomavirus (HPV), we evaluated viral factors in a prospective cohort to identify predictive factors of disease severity. Twenty children with JoRRP undergoing routine debridement of papillomas were recruited and followed for ≥1 year. Demographical features, clinical severity scores, and surgeries over time were tabulated. Biopsies were used to establish a tissue bank and primary cell cultures for HPV6 vs. HPV11 genotyping and evaluation of viral gene expression. We found that patients with HPV11+ disease had an earlier age at disease onset, higher frequency of surgeries, increased number of lifetime surgeries, and were more likely to progress to malignancy. However, the amplitude of viral E6/E7 gene expression did not account for increased disease severity in HPV11+ patients. Determination of HPV strain is not routinely performed in the standard of care for JoRRP patients; we demonstrate the utility and feasibility of HPV genotyping using RNA-ISH for screening of HPV11+ disease as a biomarker for disease severity and progression in JoRRP patients.

Abstract
Juvenile-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JoRRP) is a condition characterized by the repeated growth of benign exophytic papilloma in the respiratory tract. The course of the disease remains unpredictable: some children experience minor symptoms, while others require multiple interventions due to florid growth. Our study aimed to identify histologic severity risk factors in patients with JoRRP. Forty-eight children from two French pediatric centers were included retrospectively. Criteria for a severe disease were: annual rate of surgical endoscopy ≥ 5, spread to the lung, carcinomatous transformation or death. We conducted a multi-stage study with image analysis. First, with Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) digital slides of papilloma, we searched for morphological patterns associated with a severe JoRRP using a deep-learning algorithm. Then, immunohistochemistry with antibody against p53 and p63 was performed on sections of FFPE samples of laryngeal papilloma obtained between 2008 and 2018. Immunostainings were quantified according to the staining intensity through two automated workflows: one using machine learning, the other using deep learning. Twenty-four patients had severe disease. For the HE analysis, no significative results were obtained with cross-validation. For immunostaining with anti-p63 antibody, we found similar results between the two image analysis methods. Using machine learning, we found 23.98% of stained nuclei for medium intensity for mild JoRRP vs. 36.1% for severe JoRRP (p = 0.041); and for medium and strong intensity together, 24.14% for mild JoRRP vs. 36.9% for severe JoRRP (p = 0.048). Using deep learning, we found 58.32% for mild JoRRP vs. 67.45% for severe JoRRP (p = 0.045) for medium and strong intensity together. Regarding p53, we did not find any significant difference in the number of nuclei stained between the two groups of patients. In conclusion, we highlighted that immunochemistry with the anti-p63 antibody is a potential biomarker to predict the severity of the JoRRP.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The goal of this study was to evaluate the benefit of sublesional bevacizumab injection for recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) as used in a typical clinical practice. METHODS A retrospective review of patients with RRP treated between 2011 and 2016 was undertaken. All patients were treated with in-office potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser photoablation. Sublesional bevacizumab injection was used based on joint patient-physician decision making. Papilloma burden was objectively measured on prior recordings by 2 blinded reviewers and described as vocal fold segments affected (VFSA) by papilloma. Each patient served as their own control by comparing times when bevacizumab was or was not used. Mixed model for longitudinal data was used to determine if the previous use of bevacizumab decreased the disease burden. RESULTS A total of 19 patients met inclusion criteria and all prior laryngoscopic exams were reviewed for VFSA as described above. The mean (SD) number of VFSA when bevacizumab was not used at the prior procedure was 15 (14) as compared to 8 (11) when bevacizumab was used. When adjusted for age, time from initial presentation and baseline disease burden, mixed model showed a decrease of 11 VFSA (95% CI 6.5, 15.5, P < .0001) when bevacizumab was used as compared to when bevacizumab was not used at the prior procedure. In mixed model analysis, there was not a significant association between bevacizumab dose used and VFSA at the subsequent visit (P = .8). CONCLUSION Using sublesional bevacizumab intermittently based on clinical findings appears to be effective in improving disease control. Papilloma burden is significantly decreased at the subsequent clinical follow-up following injection of sublesional bevacizumab. The beneficial effect of sublesional bevacizumab may be not be dose-dependent.

Abstract
Juvenile-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JoRRP) is driven by human papillomavirus (HPV) low-risk strains and is associated with significant morbidity. While previous studies of 2D cultures have shed light on disease pathogenesis and demonstrated the utility of personalized medicine approaches, monolayer cultures lack the 3D tissue architecture and physiology of stratified, sequentially differentiated mucosal epithelium important in RRP disease pathogenesis. Herein we describe the establishment of JoRRP-derived primary cell populations that retain HPV genomes and viral gene expression in culture. These were directly compared to cells from matched adjacent non-diseased tissue, given the known RRP patient-to-patient variability. JoRRP papilloma versus control cells displayed decreased growth at subconfluency, with a switch to increased growth after reaching confluency, suggesting relative resistance to cell-cell contact and/or differentiation. The same papilloma cells grown as 3D organotypic rafts harbored hyperproliferation as compared to controls, with increased numbers of proliferating basal cells and inappropriately replicating suprabasal cells, mimicking phenotypes in the patient biopsies from which they were derived. These complementary model systems provide novel opportunities to elucidate disease mechanisms at distinct stages in JoRRP progression and to identify diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic factors to personalize patient management and treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS A variety of laryngeal pathologies are increasingly being managed with in-office KTP laser (IOKTP) endoscopic procedures. The primary goal of this study was to identify patient characteristics and disease-related features that correlated with tolerance for IOKTP. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective chart review. METHODS The study was a retrospective review of adult patients undergoing office-based laryngeal laser procedures between November 2016 and December 2019 at a tertiary care center. Two blinded otolaryngologist reviewers scored videotaped recordings of IOKTP procedures and assessed severity and distribution of disease using a modified Derkay score, and evaluated procedure tolerance using a visual analog scale. RESULTS A total of 56 patients who received IOKTP procedures for laryngeal pathology were reviewed, 42 male and 14 female, with a mean age of 61 years. Gender, age, and BMI were not correlated with tolerance. There was a moderate, negative correlation between tolerance and total number of pathological anatomic laryngeal subsites (rs(56) = -0.35, P = .01). There was a weak, negative correlation between tolerance and total modified Derkay score (rs(56) = -0.29, P = .03). The median tolerance score was lower for patients with posterior lesions (Mdn = 6.4) compared with patients with non-posterior lesions (Mdn = 7.4), P = .04, and lower for current or former smokers (Mdn = 6.5) compared with never smokers (Mdn = 7.3), P = .04. CONCLUSION Patients with large disease burden or posterior lesions and patients with smoking history may exhibit poorer tolerance of IOKTP procedures, factors which can help guide pre-procedural counseling and management decisions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Human papillomavirus (HPV) causes adult-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (AORRP), but AORPP prevalence is much lower than HPV prevalence. Thus, HPV infection is necessary, but not sufficient, to cause AORRP and other factors likely contribute to its pathogenesis. The present study aimed to investigate whether co-infection with herpetic viruses may contribute to the pathogenesis of AORRP. DESIGN Prospective case-control study conducted from January 2018 to November 2019. SETTINGS Tertiary referral centre. PARTICIPANTS Eighteen consecutive patients with AORRP and 18 adults with healthy laryngeal mucosa (control group) undergoing surgery. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), herpes simplex viruses 1 and 2, human herpesvirus 6, varicella zoster virus and HPV (including genotyping) were detected in biopsies of papilloma or healthy mucosa using real-time polymerase chain reaction and reverse line blot. Dysplasia and Ki67 levels were determined in papilloma specimens. RESULTS EBV was present in 6 (33.3%) AORRP patients and no control patients (P = .019). Presence was not dependent on tobacco exposure (P = .413) or HPV genotype or concentration (P > .999). EBV presence was strongly related to increased cell proliferation (P = .005) and number of previous surgeries (P = .039), but not dysplasia (P > .999). Human herpesvirus 6 was found in 3 (16.7%) AORRP biopsies, with one false positive. No other herpetic virus was found. CONCLUSIONS Unlike other herpetic viruses, EBV seems to interact with HPV, enhancing cell proliferation and contributing to the pathogenesis and progression of AORRP. Further research is required to elucidate specific interactions and their role in the pathogenesis of AORRP.

Abstract
Simple Summary Juvenile-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JoRRP) is a condition related to HPV 6 and 11 infection which is characterized by the repeated growth of benign exophytic papilloma in the respiratory tract of children. Disease progression is unpredictable leading sometimes to airway compromise and death. The aim of this study was to explore p16INK4a and expression of the RNA of HPV genes E6 and E7 with a chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH) as biomarkers of JoRRP aggressiveness on a bicentric cohort of forty-eight children. CISH was scored semi-quantitatively as high (2+ score) and low (1+ score) levels of transcription of E6 and E7. Patients with a 2+ score had a more aggressive disease compared to those with a 1+ score. These data are a first step towards the use of biomarkers predictive of disease severity in JoRRP, this could improve the disease management, for example, by implementing adjuvant treatment at the early stages. Abstract Juvenile-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JoRRP) is a condition related to HPV 6 and 11 infection which is characterized by the repeated growth of benign exophytic papilloma in the respiratory tract. Disease progression is unpredictable: some children experience minor symptoms, while others require multiple interventions due to florid growth. The aim of this study was to explore the biomarkers of JoRRP severity on a bicentric cohort of forty-eight children. We performed a CISH on the most recent sample of papilloma with a probe targeting the mRNA of the E6 and E7 genes of HPV 6 and 11 and an immunostaining with p16INK4a antibody. For each patient HPV RNA CISH staining was assessed semi-quantitatively to define two scores: 1+, defined as a low staining extent, and 2+, defined as a high staining extent. This series contained 19 patients with a score of 1+ and 29 with a score of 2+. Patients with a score of 2+ had a median of surgical excision (SE) per year that was twice that of patients with a score of 1+ (respectively 6.1 versus 2.8, p = 0.036). We found similar results with the median number of SE the first year. Regarding p16INK4a, all patients were negative. To conclude, HPV RNA CISH might be a biomarker which is predictive of disease aggressiveness in JoRRP, and might help in patient care management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Repeated surgical interventions are usually required to control recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP), but at considerable risk of worsened postoperative voice quality. Potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser has been reported to effectively manage RRP; however, voice quality after repeated procedures has not been investigated. METHODS This study recruited 16 patients with RRP treated using KTP laser between 2013 and 2019. KTP laser procedures were performed under general anesthesia via direct suspension laryngoscope or under local anesthesia via flexible endoscope, depending on the need for pathological proof, patient tolerance, and lesion size and location. Disease control was investigated by videolaryngostroboscopy. Voice outcome was evaluated using a 10-item voice handicap index (VHI-10), acoustic and perceptual analyzes. RESULTS We reviewed the medical records of 11 male and 5 female patients with RRP (age range: 23-73 years). Five patients received KTP laser once, six patients received it 2 to 5 times, and five patients received 6 to 15 procedures. Median VHI-10 decreased from 28.3 to 12.0 points after the initial procedure and were maintained at 10.1 to 11.0 points following subsequent procedures (P < .01, generalized estimating equation). Acoustic and perceptual analysis of voice quality also revealed significant improvements (P < .01), which remained stable even after 6 to 10 KTP laser procedures. Minor adverse events included slight fibrotic change of vocal folds and glottic web, but these did not significantly alter postoperative voice quality. CONCLUSION This longitudinal follow-up study revealed that serial KTP laser procedures can effectively control RRP while preserving phonatory function and maintaining adequate voice quality.

Abstract
Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis is a highly recurrent and residual disease. The use of indigo-carmine chromoendoscopy increases the early detection of nonvisible disease and reduces the possibility of leaving residual lesions. The best chances of papillomatosis being eradicated depend upon a surgical shallow epitheliolysis approach applied to patients who have never been surgically damaged before. We developed a novel surgical technique based upon the use of a time controlled High Radiofrequency (HRF) energy output. We applied a three-step bloodless HRF-surgical technique, that is, epitheliolysis, angiolysis and peeling without the aid of adjunct therapies. It acts according to differences in the water density of the tissues. We use it to remove the epithelial viral reservoir thus preserving subepithelial layers. For this purpose, we designed and manufactured a custom-made HRF electrodes set for office and O.R. use. From 2005 to 2018, 39 patients (100%) with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis participated in the present prospective work. Twenty-five (64,10%) achieved complete postsurgical remission, 6 (15,38%) were lost to follow up, and 8 (20,51%) present partial remissions. Thirty-six patients had laryngeal papillomatosis. Follow-up was possible in 30 of the 36 patients with laryngeal papillomatosis with a success remission rate of 83,33% (25 of 30). Eleven of those 36 (30,55%) entered this study without previous surgical treatment and 9 of 11 (81,81%) were cured. Indigo-carmine chromoendoscopy, a visualization solution for papillomatosis detection, together with a bloodless HRF-surgical technique proved to be effective tools to eradicate papillomatosis. Voice restoration to normal or near normal levels was achieved in all patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To characterize inflammatory cells in Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (RRP) and to correlate it with severity using the Derkay laryngoscopic scale. MATERIALS AND METHODS The data and biopsies from 36 patients with Juvenile (JRRP) and 56 patients with Adult (ARRP) were collected and analyzed under light microscopy. The patients were separated into groups according to the Derkay index: ≥20 for the most severe and < 20 for the less severe cases. Immunohistochemical analysis using CD3, CD4, CD8, CD15, CD20, CD68, FoxP3 and MUM-1 antibodies was performed, and the inflammatory cells were quantified. All the clinicopathological characteristics and the results of the immunohistochemical analysis were compared among the groups proposed using the Chi-Square test and correlated through the Spearman correlation test. RESULTS The ARRP showed significantly higher quantities of CD3+, CD8+ and MUM1+ cells (p < .05) than the JRRP samples. The presence of CD15+ cells showed positive correlation with the Derkay index (p < .05), while the MUM-1+ cells showed an inverse correlation (p = .01). CONCLUSION There are differences between the inflammatory cells population in the juvenile and adult groups and it can be related to disease severity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE to describe the frequency and predictive factors associated with laryngeal scarring caused by surgical treatment of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) in children. INTRODUCTION RRP is an important cause of hoarseness and respiratory obstruction in children. The current standard of care for RRP is the systematic and repetitive surgical interventions. The repetitive surgeries may increase the risk of sequelae. A larger number of surgeries, the surgical technique used, and disease severity are related to an increased risk of scarring. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective, descriptive review of the medical charts of patients with RRP younger than 18 years was conducted. Between 2014 and 2017, 79 patients were identified; five patients were excluded. Demographic and clinical data were recorded and analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups, one with and the other without surgical sequelae, for comparison to identify sequela-associated factors. RESULTS 75 patients, 40 (53.3%) male, were analyzed. Age at symptom onset ranged from 2 months to 13 years. Median age at the time of diagnosis was 42 months. Overall, 44% presented with disseminated disease. A median of nine (range, 1 to 86) surgeries were performed in each patient with a median of two (range, 0.6 to 10) of the average number of surgeries per year per patient. 29 patients (38.7%) had laryngeal sequelae. When comparing the patients with and without sequelae, statistically significant differences were found in the variables of dissemination during the course of the disease, overall number of surgeries and mean number of surgeries per year, history and number of previous surgeries at an outside institution, urgent surgeries, and CO2 laser use. Patients who underwent more than 10 surgeries or who had a history of previous surgeries at an outside institution had a higher frequency of laryngeal scarring in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION Scarring secondary to surgical treatment for RRP is common. Surgery-related variables seem to be predisposing factors. A greater number of surgeries and surgeries performed at less specialized centers are strongly related to this complication. Future studies with a larger sample size are necessary to determine whether other factors are involved.

Abstract
Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (RRP) is a benign disease of the airway that can result in symptoms ranging from mild dysphonia to respiratory distress to respiratory failure related to colonization of the lung parenchyma. It is a disease that typically begins in childhood and can require treatment indefinitely, though may remit in adolescence. Although treatment includes surgical management, certain cases require adjuvant therapy. Many therapies have been tried over the years with varying levels of success. Our patient presented as a 7 month old male in respiratory distress, who was subsequently diagnosed with RRP. He has required a tracheostomy, ventilation, and frequent surgical debridement for the last 20 months. Due to the aggressiveness of his disease, he was started on systemic bevacizumab (Avastin) in an effort to stabilize his lesions. Though early effect seemed apparent based on Derkay scores, systemic bevacizumab has failed to elicit clinical improvement in our patient. He remains with a tracheostomy receiving bevacizumab 10 mg/kg as an intermittent infusion approximately every 4 weeks along with surgical debridement with little to no clinical improvement thus far. In light of the recent successes with bevacizumab therapy, this case highlights the difficulty in finding new treatment for this disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective was to investigate the prevalence of the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and its association with human papilloma virus (HPV) detection, clinicopathological features, and the severity of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). METHODS Cases of juvenile recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JRRP) (n = 36) and adult recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (ARRP) (n = 44) were collected retrospectively and subdivided into low- and high-risk severity groups based on the Derkay score. We performed HPV detection and genotyping using a reverse hybridization protocol and investigated the presence of EBV by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and in situ hybridization. CD21 levels were accessed by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS All samples were HPV-positive, including 49 cases of HPV 6, 26 cases of HPV 11, four cases of HPV 6 and 11 coinfections, and one case of HPV 16. EBV-DNA was detected in nine samples by PCR, although none of the cases were positive by means of in situ hybridization. CD21 immunoexpression was not statistically associated with any of the variables analyzed. HPV 6 detection was significantly higher in ARRP cases (P = 0.03), whereas HPV 11 was more prevalent in JRRP cases (P = 0.02) and was even more prevalent in JRRP cases of greater severity (Derkay laryngoscopic scale ≥20) (P = 0.04). CONCLUSION The presence of EBV does not seem to play an important role in the progression/severity of RRP. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 130:E611-E618, 2020.

Abstract
Background: Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) remains a challenging and frustrating disease to treat.Objective: To explore the efficacy of microsurgery in combined with Topical-PDT in treating recurrent respiratory papillomatosis.Materials and methods: Fifty patients with RRP were treated with microsurgery in combined with Topical-PDT. Medical document of each patient was retrospectively reviewed. Detailed clinical information, metrics of clinical course, and current results were evaluated.Results: Juvenile onset RRP (JORRP) might experience a more aggressive course than AORRP (adult onset RRP) with higher Derkay score (p < .01) and higher operation frequency per year (p < .01). Microsurgical excision combined with Topical-PDT every 25 days achieved "remission" of disease in 78% of patients, "clearance" of disease in 52%, and "Cured" in two patients. Each patient who achieved "remission" of disease, performed 6.82 ± 3.39 operations, and continued 8.93 ± 7.03 months of treatment duration. No statistically differences were found in these two aspects between JORRP and AORRP. A negative correlation between tracheotomy and the efficacy of microsurgery in combined with Topical-PDT was found (p = .025, Pearson's r = -0.3).Conclusions and significance: Microsurgery in combined with Topical-PDT might be a powerful method to treat RRP. Tracheotomy is a negative factor for this therapy.

Abstract
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is characterized by benign exophytic lesions of the respiratory tract caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), in particular low-risk HPV6 and HPV11. Aggressiveness varies greatly among patients. Surgical excision is the current standard of care for RRP, with adjuvant therapy used when surgery cannot control disease recurrence. Numerous adjuvant therapies have been used to control RRP with some success, but none are curative. Current literature supports a polarization of the adaptive immune response to a T helper type 2 (Th2)-like or T regulatory phenotype, driven by a complex interplay between innate immunity, adaptive immunity and HPV6/11 proteins. Additionally, certain immunogenetic polymorphisms can predispose individuals to an HPV6/11-tolerant microenvironment. As a result, immunomodulatory efforts are being made to restore the host immune system to a more balanced T cell phenotype and clear viral infection. Literature has shown exciting evidence for the role of HPV vaccination with Gardasil or Gardasil-9 as both primary prevention, by decreasing incidence through childhood vaccinations, and secondary prevention, by treating active RRP disease. Multi-institution randomized clinical trials are needed to better assess their efficacy as treatment for active disease. Interestingly, a DNA vaccine has recently shown in-vitro success in generating a more robust CD8+ T cell response. Furthermore, clinical trials for programmed death 1 (PD-1) inhibitors are under investigation for RRP management. Molecular insights into RRP, in particular the interplay between RRP and the immune system, are needed to advance our understanding of this disease and may lead to the identification of immunomodulatory agents to better manage RRP.

Abstract
Background Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (RRP) is a rare disease characterized by the growth of papillomas in the airway and especially the larynx. The clinical course is highly variable among individuals and there is poor understanding of the factors that drive an aggressive vs an indolent course. Methods A convenience cohort of 339 affected subjects with papillomas positive for only HPV6 or HPV11 and clinical course data available for 1 year or more, from a large multicenter international study were included. Exploratory data analysis was conducted followed by inferential analyses with frequentist and Bayesian statistics. Results We examined 339 subjects: 82% were diagnosed prior to the age of 18 years, 65% were infected with HPV6, and 69% had an aggressive clinical course. When comparing age at diagnosis with clinical course, the probability of aggressiveness is high for children under five years of age then drops rapidly. For patients diagnosed after the age of 10 years, an indolent course is more common. After accounting for confounding between HPV11 and young age, HPV type was minimally associated with aggressiveness. Fast and Frugal Trees (FFTs) were utilized to determine which algorithms yield the highest accuracy to classify patients as having an indolent or aggressive clinical course and consistently created a branch for diagnostic age at ~5 years old. There was no reliable strong association between clinical course and socioeconomic or parental factors. Conclusion In the largest cohort of its type, we have identified a critical age at diagnosis which demarcates a more aggressive from less aggressive clinical course.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The study objective was to estimate the first 2 years' direct costs of treating new cases of juvenile-onset and adult-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) and determine the predictors of treatment costs. METHODS Cases were patients diagnosed with RRP in commercial insurance claims in 2011-2014 and Texas Medicaid in 2008-2012 for treatment of RRP. Controls were patients without a diagnosis of HPV-related cancer or RRP, matched with cases by age, sex, geographic area, date of diagnosis of RRP, and propensity score. Total health care costs in the first 2 years after diagnosis were obtained from cases and matched controls. A generalized linear model was created to identify predictors of monthly costs. RESULTS In commercially insured patients, a total of 122 cases of juvenile-onset (<18 years old) and 1824 cases of adult-onset (≥18 years old) RRP were identified. The mean first 2 years' cost difference between cases and controls was $58,733 for juvenile-onset disease and $11,185 for adult-onset disease after model adjustments. In the Texas Medicaid population, 73 cases of juvenile-onset and 96 cases of adult-onset RRP were identified. The mean first 2 years' cost difference between cases and controls was $76,115 for juvenile-onset disease and $4,633 for adult-onset disease after model adjustments. CONCLUSION The first 2 years' medical costs difference of juvenile-onset and adult-onset RRP among commercially insured and Medicaid population were approximately $60,000 to $70,000 and $5,000 to $11,000, respectively, and should be considered in HPV vaccination promotion investment decisions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To describe recurrence patterns in patients with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) following surgical intervention. STUDY DESIGN Single-center, retrospective, longitudinal case series. METHODS Initial and follow-up laryngoscopic examinations of seven previously untreated adult-onset RRP patients were reviewed. Patients were followed longitudinally for periods ranging from 3 months to 7 years. Lesion locations were recorded using a twenty-one region laryngeal schematic, and maps were generated to illustrate the distribution of disease before and after cold-knife or potassium-titanyl-phosphate laser intervention. Univariate and multivariate analyses were employed to examine variables affecting recurrence patterns. RESULTS Across all patients, a statistically significant correlation between initial distribution and primary recurrence was observed. Seventy-five percent of new lesions were adjacent to regions with preexisting disease; 83% of new glottic lesions were adjacent to preexisting glottic lesions, and 66% of supraglottic lesions were adjacent to preexisting supraglottic regions. No statistically significant differences in recurrence rate were observed across sites. CONCLUSIONS In previously untreated patients with adult-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis, lesions tended to recur either in the same regions or regions adjacent to those affected at the time of initial surgery. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 129:1993-1997, 2019.

Abstract
Background Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a human papillomavirus (HPV)-driven disorder that causes substantial morbidity and can lead to fatal distal airway obstruction and post-obstructive pneumonias. Patients require frequent surgical debridement of disease, and no approved systemic adjuvant therapies exist. Methods A phase II study was conducted to investigate the clinical activity and safety of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) blockade with avelumab in patients with RRP. Results Twelve patients were treated. All patients with laryngeal RRP displayed improvement in disease burden, and 5 of 9 (56%) displayed partial responses. None of 4 patients with pulmonary RRP displayed a response. Using each patient’s surgical history as their own control, patients required fewer surgical interventions after avelumab treatment (p = 0.008). A subset of partial responders developed HPV-specific reactivity in papilloma-infiltrating T-cells that correlated with reduced HPV viral load and an increased Tissue Inflammation Signature. Conclusions Avelumab demonstrated safety and clinical activity in patients with laryngeal RRP. Further study of immune checkpoint blockade for RRP, possibly with longer treatment duration or in combination with other immunotherapies aimed at activating antiviral immunity, is warranted. Trial registration NCT, number NCT02859454, registered August 9, 2016.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laryngeal papillomatosis (LP) is a disease that presents in both juvenile (JLP) and adult patients (ALP). This study correlated papillomatosis characteristics with the Derkay score. METHODS Retrospective data and biopsies of 36 patients with JLP and 56 with ALP were collected and separated into groups according to their scores. RESULTS The mean of the Derkay score, in the JLP group was 10.97 and in Group ALP was 8.26. The JLP group presented a more aggressive result than in the adult group (P = .02). In the JLP group, the respiratory difficulty (P = .01) and tracheostomy were correlated to a higher Derkay score (P < .05). Microscopically, the JLP samples presented a higher incidence of atypical mitosis and mitosis above the basal cells layer of the epithelium (P < .05) and these characteristics were correlated with a higher Derkay index (P = .03). CONCLUSION Findings suggest that ALP and JLP can present different clinical courses and histopathological features. There was a higher degree of LP severity in JLP.
