Have not been through it because it wasn't offered but it was offered I would definitely
choose the Dart over the out of date "standard of care" for HPV pos. related tonsil cancer.

This from Mayo clinic:
Benefits
Reduced Toxicity: DART has shown significantly lower rates of severe side effects. For example, the cumulative rate of grade 3 or higher toxicity was only 3% with DART, compared to 11% with standard therapy.
Improved Quality of Life: Patients undergoing DART reported better swallowing function and overall quality of life compared to those receiving standard treatment.
Clinical Outcomes
Survival Rates
Overall Survival: The two-year overall survival rate for patients treated with DART is approximately 96.9%.
Progression-Free Survival: The two-year progression-free survival rate is about 88.2%.
