Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a neoplastic disorder that manifests as papillomatous growths in the upper aerodigestive tract. The symptom profile, socioeconomic implications and standard treatment approaches have been outlined in recently published expert reviews1. Briefly, RRP, similar to anogenital condyloma, is caused by a chronic infection with low-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) types 6 or 11. Many are exposed to HPV 6 and 11, but few patients develop chronic infection and papillomatous disease. The genetic or environmental risk factors that dictate the development of a chronic infection or clearance of the low-risk HPV virus are poorly understood2. Diagnosis of papilloma by a trained pathologist is usually straightforward, and the recurrent nature and anatomic locations of disease point to the clinical diagnosis of RRP. Treatment for RRP has historically centered on maintenance surgical debulking of papillomatous disease aimed at providing the patient with a patent airway and a serviceable voice. This is one of the very few infectious disorders treated with repeat surgery.Given the atypical clinical management of treating a chronic infectious disorder (as a result of presumed immune dysfunction) with repeat surgery not resulting in cure, adjuvant treatments used in combination with surgical debulking of disease or alternative treatments used in lieu of surgery have been studied. The inability or difficult nature of establishing in vitro or in vivo models of RRP has made research slow and challenging3, 4. As a result, most published research in RRP is clinical research. Since large prospective clinical trials studying new RRP treatment are difficult to fund and accrue, most published clinical
