Bioradiotherapy with Cetuximab May Reduce the Risk of Neck Node Relapse in Locoregionally Advanced Laryngeal Glottic Carcinoma: May HER1-Profile Be Useful in the Bioselection of Patients?
Abstract:The aim of the study was to evaluate survival in patients with advanced glottic laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma treated by bioradiotherapy (BioRT) with cetuximab and eventual salvage surgery (group A, n = 66) or upfront surgery (total laryngectomy or near-total laryngectomy) with or without postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) (group B, n = 66). The predictive role of HER1 expression in the bioselection of tumors was evaluated. Relapse-free (RFS), metastasis-free (MFS), overall (OS) survivals, salvageability, a… Show more
