AbstractAimWeekly low-dose cisplatin is routinely used in concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT) in locally advanced head and neck cancer (LAHNC), despite 3-weekly cisplatin being the standard of care. We compared compliance, toxicity and efficacy in weekly versus 3-weekly cisplatin CCRT in LAHNC.Materials and methodsIn this retrospective study, weekly cisplatin 50 mg flat dose was compared with 3-weekly cisplatin 100 mg/m2, when given in CCRT in LAHNC with curative intent. The study outcome was compliance, toxicity, loco-regional control (LRC), disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS).ResultsEighty-four patients received CCRT from January 2013 to June 2017, 40 in weekly and 44 in 3-weekly arm. There was no difference between the arms not completing scheduled radiation therapy or chemotherapy. Patient receiving 200 mg/m2 cisplatin is higher in 3-weekly arm compared with weekly arm (75 versus 40·9%; p<0·0015). Compared with 3-weekly arm, more patient in weekly arm developed grade ≥3 mucositis (52·5 versus 15·9%, p=0·0004), day care intravenous hydration (82·5 versus 38·6% <0·0001) and in-patient admission (55·0 versus 18·2%; p=0·0004). The 2-year LRC, DFS and OS in weekly versus 3-weekly arm were: 70 versus 61·4% (p=0·406); 67·5 versus 56·8% (p=0·314); 67·5 versus 61·4% (p=0·558), respectively. The median time to LRR, DFs and OS was not reached.ConclusionsWeekly cisplatin is comparable with 3-weekly cisplatin in terms of compliance, disease control and survival, but with increased grade 3 mucositis and higher admissions for supportive care.
