Surgery vs Radiotherapy

in Node-Positive Patients
Adjuvant radiotherapy is standard of care
for node-positive vulvar cancer
Mahner S, et al. J Clin Oncol. 2012;30(15S): Abstract 5007.
21. Open Questions on Adjuvant
Radiotherapy
• Threshold of number of positive nodes?
• Radiation fields?
• Chemoradiation?
22. GOG 37
Number of Positive Nodes?
• Is there a different
effect of radiotherapy
with regard to the
number of positive
nodes?

24. SEER – Analysis
Treatment Effect in 1 Positive Node?
Parthasaraty A, et al. Gynecol Oncol. 2006;103(3):1095-1099.
25. Open Questions on Adjuvant
Radiotherapy
• Threshold of number of positive nodes?
– Prognosis deteriorates with 1 “macrometastasis”
– Positive effect of adjuvant therapy so far only
“proven” for patients with 2 or more positive nodes
– Positive effect assumed in case of extracapsular
spread
• Radiation fields?
• Chemoradiation?
26. • “Homesley GOG37 standard”
– Inguinal field + pelvic field
• However: risk of pelvic metastasis generally
low and particularly increases with 3 or more
positive inguinal nodes
– Inguinal field enough?
– Surgical assessment of pelvic nodes to determine
extent of radiation?
Radiation Fields for Adjuvant Therapy
in Node-Positive Vulvar Cancer
- 8 consecutive patients with positive groin nodes 1997-2004
- Laparoscopic pelvic lymphadenectomy
- no pelvic radiotherapy if nodes were negative
- radiation of the groins
→ interesting concept, warrants further study
Currently not safe for routine treatment
Klemm P, et al. Gynecol Oncol. 2005;99(1):101-105.
27. Open Questions on Adjuvant
Radiotherapy
• Threshold of number of positive nodes ?
– Prognosis deteriorates with 1 “macrometastasis”
– Positive effect of adjuvant therapy so far only
“proven” for patients with 2 or more positive nodes
– Positive effect assumed in case of extracapsular
spread
• Radiation fields?
– “Homesley Standard”: inguinofemoral + pelvic fields
• Chemoradiation ?
28. Clinical Trials on Adjuvant
Chemoradiation in Vulvar Cancer
• No phase III data
• 1 small and heterogenous series using
5-FU/Mitomycin

34. Conclusion: Treatment of Vulvar Cancer
With One Positive Sentinel Node
• Full groin dissection, ipsilateral or bilateral
• Prognosis impaired already with 1 intranodal
metastasis >2mm
• Adjuvant radiotherapy significantly improves outcome
in patients with 2 or more positive lymph nodes
• Surgical assessment of pelvic nodes to limit pelvic
radiotherapy to patients with pelvic metastases is an
interesting concept, but needs further studies
• Trial on adjuvant chemoradiation logical next step
to improve outcome of node-positive patients
