Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:The current study aimed to compare the therapeutic outcomes of surgery with those of chemoradiation for patients with advanced oropharyngeal cancer (OPC). METHODS:The data for 523 patients with previously untreated OPC were obtained from 12 institutions belonging to the Head and Neck Cancer Study Group in the Japan Clinical Oncology Group from April 2005 to March 2007. In this study, we matched a group of patients who underwent surgery with a second group treated with chemoradiation according to age, gender, subsite, and T and N classification, and analyzed the overall survival, progression-free survival, local control and swallowing function. RESULTS:The final matched-pair analysis included 186 patients. The 5-year overall survival, progression-free survival and local control rates were 69.8 and 71.4% (p = 0.762), 51.0 and 54.4% (p = 0.531), and 75.2 and 80.3% (p = 0.399), respectively, in patients treated with surgery and those treated with chemoradiation. Swallowing function in patients treated with chemoradiation was significantly better than that in patients treated with surgery (p = 0.015). CONCLUSION:Although this study was not randomized, this matched-pair analysis of patients treated with surgery or chemoradiation showed that chemoradiation is as effective as surgery in the treatment of OPC.
