摘要:
Objectives: Locally advanced bulky unresectable head neck cancer causes significant tumor mass effects, leading to severe symptoms. This study aims to report the safety and outcomes in patients undergoing Lattice spatially fractionated radiotherapy (Lattice SFRT) for locally advanced bulky unresectable head and neck cancer. Methods: Patients with bulky head and neck cancer received Lattice SFRT between June 2022 and June 2023. Lattice SFRT was administered in 2-3 fractions of 12 Gy (Gy) using 6-megavolt (MV) photon beams through a multileaf collimator (MLC) based on VMAT technology. The primary endpoints were symptomatic and tumor response rates. Secondary endpoints were overall survival, local control, and acute and late toxicity rates. Results: 19 consecutive patients meeting the study criteria were identified, predominantly with squamous cell carcinoma histology. The median patient age was 62 years (range 39-79 years), and the median tumor volume was 208 cc (cc) (range 48-701 cc). All patients completed radiotherapy. Among all investigated patients, 16 of 19 (84.2 %) patients achieved an objective response, including 10 individuals achieved a partial response (PR), with 3 of them exhibiting regression exceeding 75 %. 17 patients showed symptom improvement to varying degrees. Acute toxicity of Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) grade 1 or higher occurred in 5 patients, while no grade 3 adverse events was observed. Conclusions: Lattice SFRT proves to be a viable treatment option for the palliative management of bulky head and neck cancer. In the palliative setting, Lattice SFRT offers timely symptom relief, enhancing patient quality of life. Treatment toxicity remains within an acceptable range. Continued optimization of Lattice SFRT delivery and patient selection can benefit from further data on the feasibility and efficacy of this radiation modality.
