The quality of life outcome in patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer treated using chemoradiotherapy
Objective
Organ preservation is a goal of head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC) treatment. chemoradiotherapy remains one of the main treatment options and is widely recognized as a method with organ-preserving potential and outcomes comparable to those of surgery. However, few studies have investigated the quality of life (QOL) of patients with HNSCC treated using chemoradiotherapy, therefore, we aimed to retrospectively evaluate how QOL changes pre and post-chemoradiotherapy.
Methods
We evaluated QOL outcomes in patients who underwent initial radical chemoradiotherapy for HNSCC at the Department of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery Kitasato University Hospital from 2018 to 2021. We used the Cancer Fatigue Scale (CFS) and the combined European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) QLQ-C30 and QLQ-H&N35 questionnaires at pre-treatment, three months and six months post-treatment.
Results
We obtained 37 and 29 responses from the CFS and EORTC QLQ-C30/H&N35 questionnaire, respectively. From the CFS, the physical fatigue score at three months post-treatment deteriorated more than that at pre-treatment, and significantly improved by six months post-treatment. The total score worsened significantly at three months and there was a trend toward improvement at six months. In the EORTC QLQ-C30, physical and social functioning declined in three months and did not improve within six months. Fatigue was substantially worse at three months and significantly improved at six months but did not reach the same level as that before treatment. Appetite loss was also significantly worse at three months. In the QLQ-H&N35 questionnaire, sensory issues, trouble with social contact, and dry mouth were significantly worse at three months and did not improve within six months. Sticky saliva also worsened at three months and significantly improved at six months.
Conclusion
There were some problems associated with chemoradiotherapy. Some patients showed an improvement, while others continued to have challenges. In Japan, chemoradiotherapy was shown to have a long-term impact on the patient's life.

This includes otology, neurotology, bronchoesophagology, laryngology, rhinology, allergology, head and neck medicine and oncologic surgery, maxillofacial and plastic surgery, audiology, speech science.
Original papers, short communications and original case reports can be submitted. Reviews on recent developments are invited regularly and Letters to the Editor commenting on papers or any aspect of Auris Nasus Larynx are welcomed.
Founded in 1973 and previously published by the Society for Promotion of International Otorhinolaryngology, the journal is now the official English-language journal of the Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Society of Japan, Inc. The aim of its new international Editorial Board is to make Auris Nasus Larynx an international forum for high quality research and clinical sciences.
