To determine the toxicity and tumour control rates after chemo-intensity-modulated radiotherapy (chemo-IMRT) for locally advanced nasopharyngeal cancers (LA-NPC).
Patients with LA-NPC were enrolled in a trial to receive induction chemotherapy followed by parotid-sparing chemo-IMRT. The primary site and involved nodal levels received 65 Gy in 30 fractions and at risk nodal levels received 54 Gy in 30 fractions. Incidence of ≥grade 2 subjective xerostomia was the primary end point. Secondary end points included incidences of acute and late toxicities and survival outcomes.
Forty-two patients with American Joint Committee on Cancer stages II (12%), III (26%) and IV (62%) (World Health Organization subtype: I [5%]; II [40%]; III [55%]) completed treatment between January 2006 and April 2010 with a median follow-up of 32 months. Incidences of ≥grade 2 acute toxicities were: dysphagia 83%; xerostomia 76%; mucositis 97%; pain 76%; fatigue 99% and ototoxicity 12%. At 12 months, ≥grade 2 subjective xerostomia was observed in 31%, ototoxicitiy in 13% and dysphagia in 4%. Two year locoregional control was 86.2% (95% confidence interval: 70.0-94.0) with 2 year progression-free survival at 78.4% (61.4-88.6) and 2 year overall survival at 85.9% (69.3-93.9).
Chemo-IMRT for LA-NPC is feasible with good survival outcomes. At 1 year, 31% experience ≥grade 2 subjective xerostomia.
确定局部晚期鼻咽癌(LA-NPC)接受化疗调强放疗(chemo-IMRT)后的毒性和肿瘤控制率。
LA-NPC患者参加一项试验,先接受诱导化疗,随后进行保留腮腺的chemo-IMRT。原发部位及受累淋巴结区域接受65 Gy分30次照射,高危淋巴结区域接受54 Gy分30次照射。≥2级主观口干的发生率为主要终点。次要终点包括急性和晚期毒性的发生率以及生存结果。
42例美国癌症联合委员会分期为II期(12%)、III期(26%)和IV期(62%)(世界卫生组织亚型:I型[5%];II型[40%];III型[55%])的患者在2006年1月至2010年4月期间完成治疗,中位随访时间为32个月。≥2级急性毒性的发生率分别为:吞咽困难83%;口干76%;黏膜炎97%;疼痛76%;疲劳99%;耳毒性12%。在12个月时,观察到≥2级主观口干的发生率为31%,耳毒性为13%,吞咽困难为4%。两年局部区域控制率为86.2%(95%置信区间:70.0 - 94.0),两年无进展生存率为78.4%(61.4 - 88.6),两年总生存率为85.9%(69.3 - 93.9)。
LA-NPC的chemo-IMRT是可行的,生存结果良好。在1年时,31%的患者经历≥2级主观口干。
