MATERIAL AND METHODS: The review of literature covering articles published in the last five years and pointing out essential changes in HNC treatment regarding evidence based medicine. The study focused on the analysis of novel approaches for the particular primaries, the implementation of biological therapies and personalized cancer therapies. RESULTS: Updates in the oncological NCCN guidelines for all ENT primaries except major salivary glands and subglottis are based on knowledge derived from the basic sciences, clinical trials and the best evidence available currently. The latest recommendations emphasize value of biological therapies use.
