About

Jesper Grau Eriksen is a leading Danish radiation oncologist whose work has fundamentally shaped the management of head and neck cancer. His primary research focuses on refining radiotherapy protocols and improving diagnostic strategies for squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck, particularly for cancers of unknown primary (HNSCCUP). Eriksen’s most impactful contribution is the authorship of the DAHANCA 2020 radiotherapy guidelines, a seminal work cited over 130 times that provides evidence-based standards for treatment planning and delivery across Denmark. In a landmark national cohort study, he demonstrated that tongue base mucosectomy (TBM) performed via transoral robotic surgery (TORS) increases the diagnostic yield by 58% in HPV-positive HNSCCUP, establishing a new benchmark for occult tumor detection. His research has directly influenced clinical guidelines, showing that HPV status is a stronger predictor of oropharyngeal origin than traditional imaging. With a citation count exceeding 130 for his guideline work alone, Eriksen’s contributions have improved both the precision of radiotherapy and the accuracy of surgical work-up, making him a pivotal figure in head and neck oncology.
