The role of smoking among patients with human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) is unclear.
A retrospective cohort study of patients with HPV(+) OPSCC from 2001 to 2015 at a tertiary-care institution was conducted. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS).
Among 484 included patients, 94 (19.4%) were active smokers, 226 (46.7%) were former smokers, and 164 (33.9%) never smoked. Among active smokers, 82 patients (87.2%) had a ≥10 pack-year and 69 (73.4%) had a ≥20 pack-year smoking history. After adjusting for covariates, active smoking was a significant predictor of inferior OS (HR 2.28, P < .001) and PFS (HR 2.26, P < .001). When including pack-years as the covariate, ≥20 pack-years predicted a decreased effect-size for inferior OS and PFS.
For patients with HPV(+) OPSCC, active smoking at diagnosis is the most powerful covariate capturing smoking history to predict OS and PFS.
吸烟在人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)阳性口咽鳞状细胞癌(OPSCC)患者中的作用尚不清楚。
对2001年至2015年在一家三级医疗机构就诊的HPV(+)OPSCC患者进行了一项回顾性队列研究。主要结局是总生存期(OS)。
在纳入的484例患者中,94例(19.4%)为现吸烟者,226例(46.7%)为既往吸烟者,164例(33.9%)从不吸烟。在现吸烟者中,82例(87.2%)有≥10包年的吸烟史,69例(73.4%)有≥20包年的吸烟史。在对协变量进行调整后,现吸烟是OS较差(风险比2.28,P<0.001)和无进展生存期(PFS)较差(风险比2.26,P<0.001)的显著预测因素。当将吸烟包年数作为协变量纳入时,≥20包年预测较差的OS和PFS的效应量降低。
对于HPV(+)OPSCC患者,诊断时现吸烟是反映吸烟史以预测OS和PFS的最有力协变量。
