  • Brachytherapy and osteoradionecrosis in patients with base of tongue cancer
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Acta Oto-Laryngologica. - : Informa UK Limited. - 0001-6489 .- 1651-2251. ; 143:1, s. 77-84

    • Background: Base of tongue cancer incidence and patient survival is increasing why treatment sequelae becomes exceedingly important. Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) is a late adverse effect of radiotherapy and brachytherapy (BT) could be a risk factor. Brachytherapy is used in three out of six health care regions in Sweden. Aims: Investigate if patients treated in regions using BT show an increased risk for ORN and whether brachytherapy has any impact on overall survival. Material and Methods: We used data from the Swedish Head and Neck Cancer Register between 2008–2014. Due to the nonrandomized nature of the study and possible selection bias we compared the risk for ORN in brachy vs non-brachy regions. Results: Fifty out of 505 patients (9.9%) developed ORN; eight of these were treated in nonbrachy regions (16%), while 42 (84%) were treated in brachy regions. Neither age, sex, TNM-classification/stage, p16, smoking, neck dissection, or chemotherapy differed between ORN and no-ORN patients. The risk for ORN was significantly higher for patients treated in brachy regions compared to non-brachy regions (HR = 2,63, p =.012), whereas overall survival did not differ (HR = 0.95, p =.782). Conclusions and Significance: Brachytherapy ought to be used cautiously for selected patients or within prospective randomized studies.

  • Activation of T helper cells in sentinel node predicts poor prognosis in oral squamous cell carcinoma
  • 2020

    • Recurrence in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) significantly reduces overall survival. Improved understanding of the host’s immune status in head and neck cancer may facilitate identification of patients at higher risk of recurrence and improve patients’ selection for ongoing clinical trials assessing the effectiveness of immune checkpoint inhibitors (CPI). We aimed to investigate Sentinel Node-derived T-cells and their impact on survival. We enrolled prospectively 28 OSCC patients treated at Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden with primary tumour excision and elective neck dissection. On top of the standard treatment, the enrolled patients underwent sentinel node procedure. T cells derived from Sentinel nodes, non-sentinel nodes, primary tumour and PBMC were analyzed in flow cytometry. Patients who developed recurrence proved to have significantly lower level of CD4+ CD69+ in their sentinel node (31.38 ± 6.019% vs. 43.44 ± 15.33%, p = 0.0103) and significantly higher level of CD8+ CD HLA-DR+ (38.95 ± 9.479% vs. 24.58 ± 11.36%, p = 0.0116) compared to disease-free individuals. Survival analysis of studied population revealed that patients with low proportion of CD4+ CD69+ had significantly decreased disease-free survival (DFS) of 19.7 months (95% CI 12.6–26.9) compared with 42.6 months (95% CI 40.1–45.1) in those with high CD4+ CD69+ proportion in their Sentinel Nodes (log-rank test, p = 0.033). Our findings demonstrate that characterization of T-cell activation in Sentinel Node serves as a complementary prognostic marker. Flow cytometry of Sentinel Node may be useful in both patients’ surveillance and selection for ongoing CPI clinical trials in head and neck cancer.

  • Voice handicap and health-related quality of life in laryngectomees: assessments with the use of VHI and EORTC questionnaires
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Folia phoniatrica et logopaedica : official organ of the International Association of Logopedics and Phoniatrics (IALP). - : S. Karger AG. - 1421-9972. ; 61:2, s. 83-92
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • <i>Aims:</i> To investigate the Voice Handicap Index (VHI), the health-related quality of life (HRQL), and the correlations between VHI and HRQL in laryngectomees. <i>Methods:</i> Forty-three laryngectomized persons participated (mean age 68;6 years, time since laryngectomy between 0;6 and 12 years). Evaluation of voice handicap was done with the VHI. HRQL was evaluated with questionnaires from the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer, EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-H&N35. <i>Results:</i> VHI for the whole group demonstrated a moderate voice handicap, with a mean score of 48/120. The functional scales of EORTC QLQ-C30 resulted in scores on the same level as the normal population with the exception of a lower global quality of life scale (Global QOL). EORTC QLQ-H&N35 revealed problems with smell and taste, speech, coughing, xerostomia, and sexuality. VHI correlated significantly with the Global QOL, the functional scales, dyspnea, pain, nausea and financial difficulties (EORTC QLQ-C30). Significant correlations were also found between VHI and speech problems, social contact, pain from the head and neck area, sense problems, sexuality and social eating (EORTC QLQ-H&N35). <i>Conclusion:</i> The EORTC questionnaires in combination with the VHI questionnaire seem to capture most of the problems following laryngectomy, including voice problems.

  • Osteoradionecrosis, an increasing indication for microvascular head and neck reconstruction
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. - : Elsevier BV. - 0901-5027 .- 1399-0020. ; 49:1, s. 1-6
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Better cancer treatment has led to a steadily growing population of cancer survivors suffering from late adverse effects after cancer treatment. The aim of this study was to investigate whether there has been an increase in free flap reconstruction due to osteoradionecrosis (ORN). A retrospective review was conducted to identify all consecutive head and neck free flap reconstructions performed over an 18-year period (1995-2012) at Karolinska University Hospital. A total of 235 free flaps were identified. Cases were divided into two groups: head and neck cancer reconstructions and ORN reconstructions. A comparison between the two groups showed longer survival (P < 0.001) and higher rates of late complications (P < 0.001) among ORN cases. ORN as an indication for reconstruction increased over time, from 7.0% of the total number of free flaps performed in 1995-2000, to 15.2% during the period 2001-2006, and to 27.3% in 2007-2012 (P < 0.001). This, in accordance with the results of other studies, highlights the importance of the appropriate allocation of resources within the healthcare system to treat this patient group within the steadily increasing population of cancer survivors.

  • Human papillomavirus as a risk factor for the increase in incidence of tonsillar cancer
  • 2006
  • Ingår i: Int J Cancer. - : Wiley. - 0020-7136 .- 1097-0215. ; 119:11, s. 2620-3

    • Smoking and alcohol are well-known etiological factors in tonsillar cancer. However, as in cervical cancer, human papillomavirus (HPV) is currently found in a sizable proportion of tonsillar cancer. Recent reports from the U.S. and Finland show an increase in the incidence of tonsillar cancer, without a parallel rise in smoking and alcohol consumption. This study investigates whether the incidence of tonsillar cancer has also changed in Sweden and whether a possible explanation of the increase is a higher proportion of HPV-positive tonsillar cancer. The incidence of tonsillar cancer between 1970 and 2002 in the Stockholm area was obtained from the Swedish Cancer Registry. In parallel, 203 pretreatment paraffin-embedded tonsillar cancer biopsies taken during 1970-2002 from patients in the Stockholm area were tested for presence of HPV DNA by PCR. The incidence of tonsillar cancer increased 2.8-fold (2.6 in men and 3.5 in women) from 1970 to 2002. During the same period, a significant increase in the proportion of HPV-positive tonsillar cancer cases was observed, as it increased 2.9-fold (p < 0.001). The distribution of HPV-positive cases was 7/30 (23.3%) in the 1970s, 12/42 (29%) in the 1980s, 48/84 (57%) in the 1990s and 32/47 (68%) during 2000-2002. We have demonstrated a highly significant and parallel increase both in the incidence of tonsillar cancer and the proportion of HPV-positive tumors. Hence, HPV may play an important role for the increased incidence of tonsillar cancer. This should definitely influence future preventive strategies as well as treatment for this type of cancer.
