Chemoradiotherapy versus radiotherapy in high risk salivary gland cancer
The aim of this study was to investigate the potential survival benefits associated with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) as opposed to radiotherapy (RT) in patients with resected high-risk salivary gland cancer (SGC), with a specific focus on determining whether these benefits are influenced by the number of high-risk variables. Patients who underwent surgical treatment for high-risk SGC were retrospectively enrolled and categorized into either CRT or RT groups. The impact of adjuvant therapy on locoregional control (LRC) and overall survival (OS) was assessed using a multivariable Cox model. A total of 152 patients were included following propensity score-matching. In comparison to RT, CRT did not demonstrate a significant survival advantage in terms of LRC (p = 0.485, HR: 1.14, 95%CI: 0.36–4.22) and OS (p = 0.367, HR: 0.99, 95%CI: 0.17–3.87) in entire population. But among patients with T3/4 stage, high-grade tumors, and 5 or more positive lymph nodes, the addition of chemotherapy to RT significantly (p = 0.042) correlated with a 15% reduction in the risk of cancer recurrence (95%CI: 4-54%). Conversely, in other subgroups with varying combinations of high-risk variables, CRT did not provide additional survival benefits for LRC and OS compared to RT. Adjuvant chemotherapy may be considered in conjunction with RT specifically in cases where there is a presence of T3/4 stage, high-grade tumors, and 5 or more metastatic lymph nodes in high-risk SGC.
期刊介绍:
World Journal of Surgical Oncology publishes articles related to surgical oncology and its allied subjects, such as epidemiology, cancer research, biomarkers, prevention, pathology, radiology, cancer treatment, clinical trials, multimodality treatment and molecular biology. Emphasis is placed on original research articles. The journal also publishes significant clinical case reports, as well as balanced and timely reviews on selected topics.
Oncology is a multidisciplinary super-speciality of which surgical oncology forms an integral component, especially with solid tumors. Surgical oncologists around the world are involved in research extending from detecting the mechanisms underlying the causation of cancer, to its treatment and prevention. The role of a surgical oncologist extends across the whole continuum of care. With continued developments in diagnosis and treatment, the role of a surgical oncologist is ever-changing. Hence, World Journal of Surgical Oncology aims to keep readers abreast with latest developments that will ultimately influence the work of surgical oncologists.
