Aggressive dose de-escalated adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) in patients with human papillomavirus-associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPV(+)OPSCC).
Patients with HPV(+)OPSCC on a phase II clinical trial of primary surgery and neck dissection followed by dose de-escalated RT (N = 79) were compared with a cohort of patients who received standard adjuvant therapy (N = 115). Local recurrence-free, regional recurrence-free, distant metastases-free survival, and progression-free survival (PFS) were assessed.
Of 194 patients, 23 experienced progression at a median of 1.1 years following surgery (interquartile range [IQR] 0.7-2.0; range 0.3-5.4); 10 patients in the de-escalated cohort and 13 patients in the standard cohort. The 3-year PFS rate for the de-escalated cohort was 87%, and in the standard cohort was 90% (hazard ratio [HR] 1.18, 95% confidence interval (CI) [0.50-2.75]).
Patients with HPV(+)OPSCC who undergo surgical resection and neck dissection and meet criteria for adjuvant therapy can undergo aggressive dose de-escalation of RT without increasing risk of progression locally, regionally or at distant sites.
人乳头瘤病毒相关口咽鳞状细胞癌(HPV(+)OPSCC)患者采用积极的剂量递减辅助放疗(RT)。
将79例接受一期手术和颈部清扫术后进行剂量递减放疗的HPV(+)OPSCC患者与115例接受标准辅助治疗的患者队列进行比较。评估局部无复发生存率、区域无复发生存率、远处无转移生存率和无进展生存率(PFS)。
194例患者中,23例在术后中位1.1年出现进展(四分位间距[IQR]0.7 - 2.0;范围0.3 - 5.4);剂量递减队列中有10例患者,标准队列中有13例患者。剂量递减队列的3年PFS率为87%,标准队列中为90%(风险比[HR]1.18,95%置信区间[CI][0.50 - 2.75])。
接受手术切除和颈部清扫且符合辅助治疗标准的HPV(+)OPSCC患者可进行积极的剂量递减放疗,而不会增加局部、区域或远处进展的风险。
