Outcomes for the treatment of locoregional recurrent nasopharyngeal cancer: A systematic review and pooled analysis

xlomafota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader

Abstract

Despite advances in the treatment of primary nasopharyngeal carcinoma, locoregional recurrence (lrNPC) occurs at 10%–50% at 5 years. This review aims to evaluate salvage treatment for locally recurrent nasopharyngeal cancer. A literature search for all original articles published on the treatment of lrNPC from January 1990 to January 2021 was conducted. Pooled analysis was performed using a random effects model and assessed statistical heterogeneity of the combined results with I 2 index. Overall, 66 studies were included for analysis. A total of 5286 patients treated with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (39%), conformal radiotherapy (31%), open nasopharyngectomy (12%), endoscopic nasopharyngectomy (10%), stereotactic radiosurgery (4%), and brachytherapy (4%) were included. Surgical therapy has similar overall survival outcomes to re-irradiation but with decreased treatment-related morbidity and mortality. Both surgical and re-irradiation for lrNPC have similar long-term survival. Surgical approaches to lrNPC may offer similar survival while avoiding treatment-associated morbidity and mortality.
