Background: Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) data comparing bolus (B-CP) with weekly (W-CP) cisplatin concurrent with radiation are lacking. Methods: We performed a retrospective study comparing PRO among 99 patients with head and neck radiation, 26% who received concurrent B-CP and 73% treated with W-CP. Results: W-CP patients had a higher Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) (P = .004). There were no differences in median cisplatin dose, PROs, percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) dependence or hospitalization between arms. Patients with a greater decline in their self-reported dysphagia score were more often PEG dependent at the end of radiation therapy (P = .03). There was also a trend toward PEG dependence with a higher maximum dysphagia score and greater change in aspiration score (P = .06). The maximum decline in white cell count and absolute neutrophil count were greater in the W-CP group (P = .04, P = .01). Conclusion: Both B-CP and W-CP are well tolerated. PROs do not suggest a benefit to W-CP.

Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) dependence has declined over time with the use of more advanced treatment techniques but is significantly more likely with the addition of radiosensitizing chemotherapy. 4,5 Conference presentation: ASTRO 2019, Chicago.
