Background: The purpose of this study was to determine whether the pretreatment primary tumor standardized uptake value (SUV), as measured by positron emission tomography (PET), can add prognostic information for predicting survival in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Materials and Methods: 7 articles were identified by searching electronic databases. Statistical analysis was performed with RevMan 4.2.2. SUV measurement and SUV threshold for defining high SUV were studied dependently. For each publication, we first obtained an estimate of the relative risk (RR) for comparing patients with a low or a high SUV. Subsequently, we aggregated the individual RRs into a combined RR, using a fixed-effect model. Publication bias was assessed using a funnel plot. Results: The study included 7 clinical trials dedicated to HNSCC, involving 674 patients who underwent fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose-PET scanning before treatment. The combined RR from the 7 reports for the survival was 0.53 (95% confidence interval: 0.46-0.62). The funnel plot showed symmetrical distribution, indicating no evidence of any substantial publication bias. Conclusion: Our meta-analysis indicates that patients with HNSCC who have a primary tumor with a high SUV have poor survival; this should be further confirmed in a meta-analysis based on individual patient data.

“…Descriptive statistics were summarized as frequencies and percentages, medians, means, ranges, and standard deviations (SD). Cutoff values for SUVtumor-max and SUVnodal-max were determined using the log-rank test based on the 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) (7,(11)(12)(13). The Kaplan-Meier method was applied for survival analysis.…”
