Eighteen of 25 patients had squamous cell carcinoma in the supraglottic region. Anergy to skin test antigen (DNCB) and T-cell mitogen (PHA) was observed in 17 patients with laryngeal and laryngopharyngeal malignancies.

Moreover, T-lymphopenia was detected in the patient group prior to therapy as compared to mean T-cell counts in normal control subjects.
