Abstract:Induction chemotherapy yields significant response in locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of oral cavity. Pre-treatment biomarkers can help to predict response to chemotherapy. The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR) are cost-effective and simple parameters that can predict response to chemotherapy. This study aims to find the correlation between NLR, PLR and response to induction chemotherapy in oral cavity malignancies. Materials and Methods: Details of 32 patients wit… Show more
