- Abstract
Objective/hypothesis: We previously reported that the metabolic tumor volume (MTV) of a primary tumor was an independent prognostic factor for survival in laryngeal carcinoma treated by radiotherapy (RT)-based protocol. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the difference in survival outcomes between surgery-based and RT-based treatment in patients with a MTV laryngeal cancer.Study Design: An individual retrospective cohort study.Methods: We reviewed the records of 63 patients with laryngeal cancer showing a primary tumor with a high MTV value (≥ 4.9 mL). The patients were separated into two groups by primary treatment strategy: 22 patients were included in the surgery group, and 41 patients were included in the RT group. Clinical factors and treatment modalities were analyzed for their association with survival.Results: Multivariate analysis, including age, sex, subsite, T classification, nodal metastasis, and treatment modality, showed that the subsite (hazard ratio [HR] 2.55, P = 0.043) and treatment modality (HR 3.98, P = 0.019) were independent predictors for survival. The Kaplan-Meier curves for 2-year relapse-free survival rates and overall survival rates for patients in the surgery and RT groups were 74.2% versus 38.8% (P = 0.025) and 80.1% versus 66.7% (P = 0.078).Conclusions: Patients with a high metabolic volume laryngeal cancer treated by a surgery-based protocol showed better relapse-free survival and overall survival than did those undergoing RT-based treatment. Pretreatment MTV assessment could be useful in planning the treatment strategy for patients with a laryngeal cancer.Level Of Evidence: 2b. Laryngoscope, 127:862-867, 2017.

Background The purpose of this study was to elucidate the prognostic significance of the pretreatment metabolic tumor volume (MTV) in patients with piriform sinus carcinoma treated by radiation-based therapy. Methods This retrospective study included 100 patients with piriform sinus carcinomas who had received treatment by radiation-based therapy. The MTV values were obtained from pretreatment positron emission tomography (PET). The association between clinical factors, including the MTV, and survival was analyzed. Results Kaplan-Meier estimates revealed the 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) rates were significantly poorer for patients with a high MTV compared to those with a low MTV. In the multivariate analysis, MTV ( p < .001), nodal metastasis ( p = .011), and applied chemotherapy regimen ( p = .004) were found to be independent prognostic factors for DFS. Conclusion The locoregional MTV is a prognostic factor for DFS in patients with piriform sinus carcinoma treated by radiation-based therapy. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract: Objective: Combined treatment modality, e.g., definitive surgery followed by radiotherapy (RT) and definitive RT with concurrent chemotherapy, has been applied for advanced maxillary sinus squamous cell carcinoma (MSSCC) patients to obtain a better survival with organ preservation in Japan. Methods: The outcome of 40 patients with MSSCC between 1991 and 2007 in our institute was analyzed retrospectively. There were 36 males and 4 females, the average age being 59.5 years (ranging from 34 to 81 years). The median follow-up time was 66.1 months. All the patients had received a combined treatment consisting of definitive surgery, RT, and intra-arterial or systemic chemotherapy. The chemotherapeutic regimen was different depending on the performance status and/or complications of the patients. Since 1998, concurrent chemoradiotherapy with cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil, methotrexate and leucovorin regimen (CCRT–PFML) instead of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy has been applied. Results: The overall 5-year survival rate was 59.2%, the 5-year disease-specific survival rate was 71.7%, and the 5-year organ preservation survival rate was 42.4%. In the group receiving CCRT–PFML, the overall 5-year survival rate was 60.0%, the 5-year disease-specific survival rate was 76.0%, and the 5-year organ preservation survival rate was 60.3%. Conclusion: CCRT–PFML for advanced MSSCC patients is feasible to preserve the organs without reducing the survival rate. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and toxicity of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with S-1 in patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) in elderly cases and/or cases with comorbidity. Fifty eligible patients with stage III (15 cases) or stage IV (35 cases) SCCHN were treated with CCRT. Thirteen cases had an advanced age of over 75 years and 37 cases had comorbidity. Definitive radiotherapy was delivered up to a total dose of 66–70.2 Gy. The patients received two courses of oral S-1 (40 or 50 mg twice a day [80 or 100 mg/day]) for 2 weeks followed by 1 week of rest while receiving CCRT. All the patients received the planned radiotherapy and at least one course of S-1. Grade 3 mucositis occurred in 20% of the patients (10/50). Grade 3 neutropenia occurred in 12% (6/50) and leukocytopenia occurred in 6% (3/50) of the cases. Pathologically, the complete response rates were 93% in stage III and 54% in stage IV. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy with S-1 is a safe, well-tolerated and effective regimen for locally advanced SCCHN in elderly cases and/or cases with comorbidity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Conclusions. This regimen of concurrent chemoradiotherapy was safe and well tolerated. In terms of larynx preservation, the present regimen appears to be useful for patients with advanced resectable squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the larynx and hypopharynx. Objectives. To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with advanced resectable SCC of the larynx and hypopharynx, and to demonstrate the feasibility of larynx preservation. Patients and methods. Forty-six eligible patients were treated. The chemotherapy regimen consisted of a combination of four drugs: cisplatin (60 mg/m2, day 4), 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) (600 mg/m2 given continuously for 120 h, days 1–5), methotrexate (MTX) (30 mg/m2, day 1), and leucovorin (LV) (20 mg/m2, days 1–5). Two cycles of this regimen were given every 4 weeks during radiotherapy. Radiotherapy was delivered 5 days a week using a single daily fraction of 1.8–2.0 Gray, to a total dose of 66.6–70.2 Gray. Results. The 3-year disease-specific survival rates of patients with laryngeal or hypopharyngeal SCC were 81.3% and 78%, respectively. The 3-year disease-specific survival rates with larynx preservation of patients with laryngeal or hypopharyngeal SCC were 46.7% and 59%, respectively. The main toxicities were neutropenia, dermatitis, mucositis, and infection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: The purpose of this study is to validate the applicability of new TNM classification for human papillomavirus (HPV)-related oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) in the 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC)/Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) TNM staging system in Japan.Methods: A total of 91 OPC patients treated with radiation-based therapy between November 2001 and July 2015 were analyzed retrospectively in this study. HPV infection status was evaluated using tumor p16 expression.Results: 40 OPC patients (44.0%) had HPV-positive disease in this study. The distribution of disease stage of HPV-positive OPC patients dramatically changed from the 7th edition to the 8th edition of AJCC/UICC TNM classification. However, neither the 8th edition nor the 7th edition of the AJCC/UICC TNM staging system could adequately predict outcomes of HPV-positive OPC patients in our patient series. On the other hand, our multivariate analysis indicated that matted nodes and age ≥63 were independent prognostic factors for progression-free survival. In addition, HPV-positive OPC patients with stage I without matted nodes showed significantly better overall and progression-free survival compared with those with stage I with matted nodes and stages II and III in the 8th edition of the AJCC/UICC TNM staging system (P=0.008, and P=0.043, respectively).Conclusion: Our results suggested that matted nodes of HPV-positive OPC patients might be additionally examined to apply the 8th edition of AJCC/UICC TNM classification for more adequate predicting outcomes of HPV-positive OPC patients.

Abstract: Objective: This study evaluates the utility of fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) who received concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). Methods: Sixty-five patients were recruited for this study between November 2002 and April 2007. The FDG-PET scan was performed before treatment and 4–6 weeks after treatment. Results: The mean of maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) before treatment at the primary tumor site was 8.1 (range, 2–22). The sensitivity of FDG-PET for the diagnosis of primary tumor site was 98%. The mean of SUVmax after treatment was 2.6 (range, 2–5). The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of FDG-PET for the diagnosis of primary tumor site after treatment were 100%, 40%, and 46%, respectively. The mean of SUVmax before treatment at the nodal site was 4.7 (range, 2–16). The mean of SUVmax after treatment was 2.0 (range, 2–6.7). The pre-treatment SUVmax of T2, T3, and T4 stages were significantly higher than that of the T1 stage. The N stage had no correlation in terms of the pre-treatment nodal site SUVmax. Conclusion: Our results indicate that FDG-PET is a useful imaging method for evaluating the response of CCRT in patients with HNSCC. However, performing FDG-PET 4–6 weeks after treatment may be too early as it may give false-positive results due to fibrosis and scarring. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: Objective: To review our experience in the treatment of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCR) for patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) and to evaluate the different factors affecting survival and primary organ preservation. Methods: We reviewed the records of 101 patients with SCCHN treated with CCR between February 1998 and April 2004. Of 101 patients, 76 were treated with a cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil, methotrexate, and leucovorin (PFML) regimen and 25 were treated with a carboplatin and uracil-tegafur (CBDCA-UFT) regimen. Overall survival (OS), disease-specific survival (DSS) and DSS with primary organ preservation were estimated using Kaplan-Meier methods. The log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards regression were employed to identify significant prognostic factors for OS, DSS, and DSS with primary organ preservation. Results: The 5-year OS and DSS for all patients were 51.6 and 67.4%, respectively. On multivariate analysis, resectability of the tumor and degree of histological differentiation were significant predictors of survival for patients undergoing CCR; T stage and differentiation were significant prognostic factors for primary organ preservation. Conclusion: In the treatment of CCR for advanced SCCHN, the survival rate of the patients with resectable tumors was excellent and significantly greater compared with the patients with unresectable tumors. T1 to T3 disease in patients with advanced resectable SCCHN is a good predictor of organ preservation. CCR may improve not only primary organ preservation (local control) but also survival in patients with poorly differentiated tumors. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
