those with significant co-morbidities or a poor

performance status (11.0%, n=14). Concurrent

chemotherapy with cisplatin100mg/m

2

or carboplatin

AUC5 (when cisplatin contra-indicated), 3-4weekly, was

considered in patients with extracapsular spread and/or

involved margin (49.6% n=63) and given to those with no

contra-indications (31.5%, n=40).

Median follow up from the end of treatment was 20.7

months (range 0.9-76.8 months) in all patients. Median

follow in survivors was 30.9 months (range 7.3-76.8

months). At the time of analysis 39 patients had a

confirmed relapse and 52 patients had died (35 disease

related). Mean survival rates were: OS 45.9 months (95%

CI 39.8-52.1); DFS 43.5 months (95%CI 37.5-49.5); DSS 55.4

months (95% CI 49.4-61.3).

One-year survival rates were: OS 74% (95%CI - 66.2 – 81.8);

DFS 74% (95%CI – 66.2 – 81.8); DSS 79% (95%CI – 71.2 – 86.8).

Three-year survival rates were: OS 54% (95%CI - 44.2 –

63.8); DFS 51% (95%CI – 41.2 – 60.8); DSS 66% (95%CI – 56.2

– 75.8).

Conclusion

Our results are consistent with nationally reported survival

data. Ongoing work is carried out to report treatment

related toxicities and identify histopathological factors

that

may

influence prognosis.

Purpose or Objective

Postoperative concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) is

supprior to RT alone for squamous cell carcinoma of the

head and neck (SCCHN) with high-risk factors (such as

extracapsular invasion, positive resection margin) by both

RTOG 9501 and EORTC 22931 trials. We developed a new

protocol of intensive chemotherapy followed by IMRT

(IntCT+RT) and compared the toxicity and efficacy with

CCRT for patients with SCCHN and poor prognostic factors

after surgery.

Material and Methods

Ninety-two SCCHN patients who received curative

resection first and with at least one of the following

characteristics, resection margin involvement or close to

the tumor, extracapsular invasion, perineural invasion,

angiolymphatic invasion, pathological stage T4, and

multiple neck nodes metastasis were eligible for this

study.

Postoperative

multi-drugs

combination

chemotherapy (Methotrexate 30 mg/m2 d1, Epirubicin 30

mg/m2 d1, alternating with Mitomycin-C 4 mg/m2 d8,

Oncovin 1 mg/m2 d8, Cisplatin 25 mg/m2 d8, Leucovorin

120 mg/m2 d8, 5-fluoroUracil 1000 mg/m2 d8, and

Bleomycin 10 mg/m2 d8) for 10-12 weeks were

administered followed by IMRT in the IntCT+RT groups.

Patient in the CCRT group received similar RT and

concurrent chemotherapy of either tri-weekly cisplatin

100mg/m2 alone or tri-weekly cisplatin 50mg/m2 plus oral

tegafur-uracil 2# bid for 7 weeks.

Results

The IntCT+RT group (n=37) had less regional (8.1% vs.

12.7%) and distant (2.7% vs. 7.3%) failures, compared with

the CCRT group (n=55). The Kaplan-Meier survival analyses

revealed that patients treated by IntCT+RT had better

regional failure-free survival (3-year rate, 94.5% vs. 72.4%,

P=0.0294) and overall survival (75.9% vs. 61.8%, P=0.1343)

than those who received CCRT. Grade 3/4 acute toxicity

of IntCT phase included leucopenia (51.4%), anemia

(27.0%), vomiting (5.4%), alopecia (5.4%) and mucositis

(2.7%) but patients could tolerate it well. During RT

period, patients in the CCRT group had significantly higher

grade 3/4 mucositis (76.4% vs. 57.7%, P=0.0356) and

vomiting (27.3% vs. 0%, P<0.0001) than those in the IntCT-

RT group.

Conclusion

IntCT+RT in postoperative setting for high-risk SCCHN

patients is feasible. We observe a significant better

regional control, favorable overall survival and less grade

3 or 4 mucositis and vomiting in the IntCT-RT group

compard with the CCRT. This novel approach deserves to

be studied in a phase III randomized trial.

Purpose or Objective

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of radiation and

concomitant superselective high-dose intra-arterial

cisplatin (RADPLAT) for maxillary sinus squamous

carcinoma (MS-SCC).

Material and Methods

We conducted a retrospective chart review of MS-SCC

patients treated with RADPLAT between 2008 and June

2016.

Results

Thirty-four MS-SCC patients were received RADPLAT.

There were 9 patients (26%) diagnosed with T3, 14 (41%)

with T4a, and 11 (32%) with T4b disease. Lymph-node

involvement was present in 6 patients. Cisplatin with

median 150 mg was administered using the superselective

intra-arterial infusion method bi-weekly. Of them, 29, 3,

1 and 1 patients were received 4, 3, 2 and 1 times cisplatin

infusions, respectively. Radiation, ranged with 50–74 Gy

with median 60 Gy was administered by 2 Gy fraction in 5

times a week. The median follow-up was 24.6 months,

ranged with 4.1-92.4 months. Complete responses in the

primary site were obtained in 11 (32%) patients and partial

responses in 19 (56%) patients. The 2 and 5-year overall

survival rates (OS) were 66 and 45%, respectively. The 2

and 5-year primary-site recurrence free survival rates

(PRFS) were 49 and 40%, respectively. The 2 and 5-year

disease-free survival rates (DFS) were 45 and 37%,

respectively. The patients with T3 showed significantly

better OS (p=0.03). The patients with 4 time infusions

showed significantly better OS, PRFS, and DFS (p<0.05).

There was no life-threatening toxicity.

Conclusion

In RADPLAT for MS-SCC, 4 times cisplatin infusions could

improve the

prognosis.
