ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND/AIM: To evaluate treatment outcomes of carbon-ion radiotherapy for oropharyngeal non-squamous cell carcinoma at four carbon-ion facilities in Japan.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the cases of 33 patients with oropharyngeal non-squamous cell carcinoma who were treated with carbon-ion radiotherapy between November 2003 and December 2014.

RESULTS: The histology included adenoid cystic carcinoma (n=25) and mucosal malignant melanoma (n=4). No patients had T1 tumors; 23 had T4 tumors. The most-commonly prescribed dose was 57.6 Gy (RBE) in 16 fractions. The median follow-up period was 34.8 months (range=4.2-122.8 months). The 3-year local control and overall survival rates were 94.7% and 90.7%, respectively. There were no grade ≥4 acute adverse events. Only one patient experienced a grade ≥4 late adverse event. No patien ts experienced late adverse events related to swallowing or salivary function.

CONCLUSION: Carbon-ion radiotherapy appears to be a promising treatment option for oropharyngeal non-squamous cell carcinoma.
