2. INTRODUCTION
• HNC SIXTH MC CANCER WORLDWIDE
• 57.5% of global head and neck cancers occur in Asia
• India :30% of all cancers.
• 60 to 80% of patients present with advanced disease as compared to
40% in developed countries.

chemoradiation remains around 40-50%.
• Distant failure rates in LA SCCHNC 20-30%
• Difficult to treat with poor prognosis
• Median survival of 12 months

7. • High pT stage and ASA score are independent predictors for worse DFS
• 5-year OS: 33%; Median OS: 18 months
• Post op RE Radiation was used in only few subset with positive margins (1/3rd of R1 patients).
• Larynx carcinoma was associated with more favorable local and locoregional control than
pharyngeal carcinoma. BUT NO OS benefit
• In oropharyngeal carcinoma impact of HPV was evaluated : HPV in recurrent setting does not
necessarily have any prognostic effect*

9. • Patients with R & SP squamous carcinoma originating in a previously-irradiated
field (≥40Gy) who underwent re-irradiation with IMRT (≥40 Gy re-IMRT) were
included.
• Factors for OS were entered into a recursive partitioning analysis (RPA).
• Only patients treated with conventionally or hyper fractionated regimens of 1-3
Gy per fraction were included. SBRT (>5Gy per fraction was NOT included)
• Salvage surgery to the primary or neck prior to re-irradiation were included
To identify prognostic subgroups for which the risk-benefit ratio of modern re-irradiation appears favorable

The 2-year and 5-year LRC: 60% and 50%
Median survival time was 25.1 months.
Median survival for those who received definitive reirradiation was 27.7 months and 22.8 months
for those who received adjuvant reirradiation (nonsignificant).

13. • Salvage surgery + RERT in 90% oral cavity (OC) and 80% neck
recurrences
• RE RT alone in oropharyngeal (OP) and Retropharyngeal (RP)
recurrences
• Irrespective of the local modality 2-year LRC: 52% OC/OP vs 73% non-
OC/OP; P=.001)
• The large discrepancy in those receiving surgery for OC (90%) compared
with OP (25%) patients, with both groups doing equally poorly, supports an
independent and unfavorable prognostic value of mucosal recurrences in
those with SCC tumors.
• LRC rates after neck retreatment Salvage surgery + RERT: LRC @2-year
83%
• RERT ALONE: retropharynx, nasopharynx, and skull base: LRC @2-year
73%

18. • The 2-year cumulative incidence of
grade ≥3 late toxicity ( not pre-existing
and occurring beyond 90 days )
controlling for the competing risk of
recurrence or death was 12.4% with
IMRT & 11.6% with SBRT
• 2-year cumulative incidence of
competing risks (progression or death):
73.1% with IMRT 79.2% with SBRT
• Less than 1 in 5 patients is alive and
disease free without having experienced
late effects at 2 years after re-irradiation.
• Carotid blowout: 2 in IMRT and 2 in
SBRT: overall crude rate of 1.0%.

19. • LIMITATIONS:
• Retrospective date
• IMRT GTV was not computed
• OUTCOMES:
• largest comparative report of modern re-irradiation
• Re-irradiation with both SBRT and IMRT appear relatively safe with favorable toxicity
compared to historic studies
• RPA classification retained an independent association with OS, providing prognostic
classification for these patients
• Survival for class III patients is poor and SBRT, systemic therapy alone, and
supportive care are all reasonable strategies

23. ROLE OF IMMUNOTHERAPY
• CheckMate 141: Platinum refractory disease: HR for death: 0.7
This trial resulted in the approval of nivolumab in the R/M
second-line HNSCC setting.
• KEYNOTE-048 : For CPS score 20 or more: HR for death 0.6
• Based on PDL-1 combined positive score (CPS)(score of 20 or
more) either pembrolizumab alone or with chemotherapy
represents the first choice for these patients
• nivolumab showed a 13% ORR and pembrolizumab a 17% ORR
when considered in the total population and a 23% ORR in the
population with PDL-1 CPS 20

24. ROLE OF IMMUNOTHERAPY: WITH RT
• ABSCOPAL EFFECT
• Distant lesions responding to locoregional treatment
• By inducing “immunogenic cell death” (ICD), with release of tumor-associated antigens (TAAs)
• The outcome is the activation of the innate and adaptive immune systems.

• RT schedule best suited abscopal effect synergism: SBRT > other hypofractionated

• Aim to de-intensify the treatment impact by adding
immunotherapy

33. CONCLUSIONS
• With LRC of 40-50% and DM rate of 20-30% about half of the patients with LASCCHN have a
recurrent/metastatic disease in common clinical practice
• Salvage surgery results in 33% 5 Year OS rates in operable cases
• RPA classification identifies three distinct subgroups which can guide patient selection for therapy
• Re-irradiation with both SBRT (<25cc/>35Gy) and IMRT (CTV<50cc) appear relatively safe with favorable
toxicity compared to historic studies
• Data combining immunotherapy and radiation in recurrent/metastatic SCCHN have been unsatisfactory
regarding abscopal effect
• Needs multidisciplinary approach: integrating multiple therapeutic modalities based on patient /tumor
characteristics

Cox regression weighted by the inverse probability of treatment (IPTW).
After using the IPTW model to control for age, gender, smoking pack-years, previous systemic therapy use, previous radiation dose, tumor location, second primary rather than recurrence, time interval between the courses of radiation, use of systemic therapy during re-irradiation and tumor size, there were no statistically significant differences in OS between IMRT and SBRT (HR 0.877, 95% CI 0.702-1.097 p=0.251).
