ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
HPV-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) carries a favorable prognosis for patients, yet nearly 30% of patients will experience disease relapse. We sought to detail patterns of failure, associated salvage therapy, and outcomes for patients with recurrent HPV-positive OPSCC. METHODS AND MATERIALS This is a single institution retrospective study of patients with recurrent HPV-positive OPSCC irradiated from 2002 to 2014. The primary study outcome was overall survival (OS, calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method). Secondary aims included patterns of first failure with descriptive details of salvage therapy. Solitary recurrences were defined as initial presentation of recurrence in a single site (primary, neck or oligometastatic), and multi-site was defined as local and regional and/or multiple sites of distant recurrence. Survival outcomes were compared using the log-rank test.RESULTS:
The cohort consisted of 132 patients. The median follow-up was 59 months for surviving patients. Estimated 2-year and 5-year OS rates were 47% and 32%, respectively. Comparative 2-year and 5-year OS rates were 65% and 46% versus 19% and 9% for the solitary group and multi-site group, respectively (p < .001).CONCLUSIONS:
Patients with recurrent HPV-positive OPSCC experience 5-year survival of approximately 32%. However, patients with a "solitary" recurrence including disease at the primary site, neck or oligometastatic site have more favorable long-term outcomes.Palavras-chave
