11 EORTC Trial: Schema Surgery (oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, larynx) -pt3 or pt4 -N2 or N3 -pt1/t2 and N0/N1 with unfavorable patholgic findings Oral cavity ~30% Randomize 231 Pts RT Gy/30-33 Fr 228 Pts RT Gy/30-33 Fr Cisplatin 100 mg/m2, d1,22,43 Primary end point: Locoregional control Secondary end points: Disease-free survival, Overall survival, Adverse effects Unfavorable features: Extranodal spread, RM +, perineural involvement, vascular tumor embolism, oral cavity or oropharyngeal tumor with LN level IV or V

12 5-yr PFS 47% vs. 36% 5-yr OS 53% vs. 40%

13 Phase III Randomized Trials: Concurrent Chemo-RT vs. Radiotherapy alone EORTC (n = 334) RTOG 9501 (n = 410 ) Treatment DDP/RT (%) RT (%) P value DDP/RT (%) RT (%) P value 5 Y-LRF Y-DFS or PFS Y-OS Acute toxicity Gr < LRF, locoregional failure; DFS, disease-free survival; PFS, progression-free survival; OS, overall survival.

18 NCCN Practice Guideline Risk features: extracapsular nodal spread, positive margins, pt3 or pt4 primary, N2 or N3 nodal disease, nodal disease in levels IV or V, perineural invasion, vascular embolism.

19 Role of Chemoradiation in LA-HNSCC Improved tumor control and OS in HNSCC, compared with RT alone MACH-NC: The biggest 5-yr absolute benefit 5.6% & pronounced effect on locoregional control Preferred option for organ preservation Toxicity, both acute and late, is enhanced Pignon JP, et al.

23 Differential Effect on Failure Patterns CRT and Induction chemotherapy may be complementary Significant improvement in locoregional (LRC) and distant control (DC) with concomitant chemotherapy LRC: HR 0.74 ( ; p<0.0001) DC: HR 0.88 ( ; p=0.04) No improvement in LRC, but significant improvement in DC with induction chemotherapy LRC: HR 1.03 ( ; p=0.43) DC: HR 0.73 ( ; p=0.001) Induction chemotherapy has a more pronounced impact on distant control than concomitant chemotherapy Pignon JP, et al. Radiotherapy and Oncol, 2009

24 Do Induction Chemotherapy and CRT have Complementary Effects on Overall Control of Disease? A sequential approach Induction chemotherapy Definitive local therapy (RT or CRT) Active induction CT improves distant control & further improves locoregional control Brief dose-dense regimen without compromizing CCRT Avoiding a long delay of CCRT (selective repopulation of resistant tumor) Intensive local therapy regimen improves locoregional control

54 Summary Adjuvant concurrent chemoradiation in high-risk disease is standard of care. Chemoradiation in LA-HNSCC is standard of care and improve tumor control and OS in HNSCC, compared with RT alone. Adding induction chemotherapy to CRT in LA-HNSCC did not improve survival. Consider in subset group: Good PS; Large or low neck node (+); Oropharynx, hypopharynx, larynx primary. Erbitux based CRT is comparable in survival outcome and better in QoL compare with CRT.
