Molecular Markers That Matter in Salivary Malignancy

Despite aggressive initial interventions, recurrent/metastatic salivary gland cancer is not uncommon. Standard chemotherapy has not been shown to have durable clinical benefits. Several potential molecular markers have been identified in different histologic subtypes of salivary cancers. The objective of this review is to highlight the molecular markers that have been targeted in clinical trials for salivary gland cancers.
