The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of weight loss on outcome in patients with head and neck cancer undergoing concomitant chemoradiotherapy (CCRT): treatment interruption, infections, mortality, and hospital readmission rate.
Forty patients with head and neck cancer were enrolled. All patients were counseled to follow a nutritional program during CCRT. Body weight was evaluated at baseline, at the end, and 30 days after radiochemotherapy.
Ninety percent of compliant patients with nutritional program maintained body weight (mean, 1 +/- 2.4 kg) and 100% of noncompliant patients continued to lose weight (mean, -9 +/- 4 kg; p < .001). A reduction greater than 20% of prediagnosis weight significantly correlated with treatment interruption (p = .003), infections (p = .002), early mortality (p = .011), hospital readmission rate (p = .001), and survival (log-rank test: z = -2.722, p = .006).
In patients with head and neck cancer undergoing CCRT, the early nutritional management reduces weight loss and improve outcome.
本研究旨在确定体重减轻对头颈部癌患者同步放化疗（CCRT）结局的影响：治疗中断、感染、死亡率和住院再入院率。
招募了40名头颈部癌患者。所有患者在同步放化疗期间均接受了营养计划咨询。在基线、放疗化疗结束时和结束后30天评估体重。
90%遵循营养计划的患者维持了体重（平均，1±2.4千克），100%未遵循营养计划的患者继续体重减轻（平均，-9±4千克；p<0.001）。诊断前体重降低超过20%与治疗中断（p=0.003）、感染（p=0.002）、早期死亡率（p=0.011）、住院再入院率（p=0.001）和生存率显著相关（对数秩检验：z=-2.722，p=0.006）。
在接受同步放化疗的头颈部癌患者中，早期营养管理可减少体重减轻并改善结局。
