Multidimensional Prognostic Index as a Predictor of Mortality in Head and Neck Cancer Patients: A Cohort Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck cancer (HNC) significantly impacts older adults, with mortality influenced by multiple factors. The Multidimensional Prognostic Index (MPI), derived from comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA), may improve risk stratification and clinical decision making. Methods An observational cohort study was conducted at Erasmus

The Role of Machine Learning to Detect Occult Neck Lymph Node Metastases in Early‐Stage (T1‐T2/N0) Oral Cavity Carcinomas

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Oral cavity carcinomas (OCCs) represent roughly 50% of all head and neck cancers. The risk of occult neck metastases for early‐stage OCCs ranges from 15% to 35%, hence the need to develop tools that can support the diagnosis of detecting these neck metastases.

Efficacy of Eribulin Monotherapy in Patients With Unresectable and/or Metastatic Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma Receiving Platinum‐Based Therapy

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is the second most common and treatment‐resistant salivary gland carcinoma (SGC). Although platinum‐based therapies are effective, the efficacy of eribulin, a microtubule inhibitor with an 18% response rate in a Phase II trial involving recurrent/metastatic SGC, in patients with advanced ACC after ...

Conversion Surgery After Administration of a TRK Inhibitor for Unresectable Parotid Gland Secretory Carcinoma

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The NTRK fusion gene is detected in most salivary gland secretory carcinomas. While tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) inhibitors are used for various solid tumors with the fusion gene, there are no reports regarding TRK inhibitor use for unresectable parotid gland carcinomas that subsequently shrink and become resectable.

Deep Learning Pipeline for Automated Assessment of Distances Between Tonsillar Tumors and the Internal Carotid Artery

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Evaluating the minimum distance (dTICA) between the internal carotid artery (ICA) and tonsillar tumors (TT) on imaging is essential for preoperative planning; we propose a tool to automatically extract dTICA. Methods CT scans of 96 patients with TT were selected from the cancer imaging archive.

Quad Shot—A Tertiary Hospital Experience With a Palliative Radiotherapy Regimen for Head and Neck Cancer

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck cancer patients often present with locally advanced disease. For some patients, palliative treatment schedules focused on symptom control are often preferred. Perhaps the most widely used of these is the so‐called Quad Shot (QS) regimen.

Examining the Relationship Between Dysphagia, Eating‐Related Symptoms, and Diet Quality Among Oropharyngeal Cancer Patients During Critical Stages of Cancer Survivorship: The U‐DINE Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Diet quality is a modifiable factor impacting treatment outcomes in oropharyngeal cancer (OPC), yet the effect of dysphagia and self‐reported eating‐related symptoms remains unclear. This study examined their associations with diet quality in OPC patients.

Geographic and Socioeconomic Landscape of Veterans With Head and Neck Cancer

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background US Veterans experience higher rates and worse outcomes for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) compared to civilians. Geographic and socioeconomic barriers remain unclear. Methods This retrospective descriptive study analyzed VA data nationwide (2012–2022), identifying Veterans with HNSCC using ICD codes.
