Abstract:

Objective

To discuss the feasibility and safety of radioactive Iodine 125 seeds implantation synchronized chemotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil (TPF) on advanced unresectable head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) .

Methods

Previously untreated patients with histologically documented advanced unresectable HNSCC underwent percutaneous radioative iodine 125 seeds interstitial implantation, and simultaneously received three cycles of chemotherapy every 21 days at a dose of 75 mg/m2 docetaxel D1, 75 mg/m2 cisplatin D1, 750 mg/m2 5-fluorouracil D2~5.

Results

The effectiveness of treament was evaluated based on tumor size and clinical symptoms in patients. The overall responding was 78.3%. A progression-free survival of 60.9% and overall survival of 52.2% was achieved at 2 years. Four each died of cardiovascular and local recurrence. Major toxicities included leucopenia, alopecia, nausea/vomiting, local hemorrhage, thrombocytopenia. No acute complications and treatment related raidation damages occurred in the trail.

Conclusion

The scheme of brachytherapy based on iodine 125 seeds implantation synchronized chemotherapy is a mild invasive, effective and safety regimen of advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
