Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the pre-treatment and post-treatment clinical factors associated with rate of survival at 1, 3, and 5 years in stage IV oropharyngeal cancer patients treated with concurrent chemoradiation with/without neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Methods This retrospective cohort study involved 128 Stage IV oropharyngeal cancer patients that were treated at our tertiary referral center between 2008 and 2020. The pre-treatment and post-treatment clinical parameters including nutritional status and inflammatory markers were retrospectively reviewed. Results The 5-year overall survival rate for all patients was 36.72%. The disease-specific survival (DSS) at 1-year and 3-year were 80% and 63%, whereas the disease-free survival (DFS) at 1-year and 3-year were 49% and 40%, respectively. In multivariate analyses, pretreatment hemoglobin (Hb) < 12 g/dL (hazard ratio [HR] 2.551, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.366–4.762, p = 0.003), pretreatment systemic immune inflammation (SII) ≥ 1751 (HR 2.173, 95% CI 1.015–4.652, p = 0.046), and posttreatment systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) ≥ 261 (HR 2.074, 95% CI 1.045–4.115, p = 0.037) were independent indicators for worsened DSS. Pretreatment Hb < 12 g/dl (HR 1.692, 95% CI 1.019–2.809, p = 0.032), pretreatment SII ≥ 1751 (HR 1.968, 95% CI 1.061–3.650, p = 0.032), and posttreatment SII ≥ 1690 (HR 1.922, 95% CI 1.105–3.345, p = 0.021) were independent indicators for worsened DFS. A nomogram was developed using pretreatment Hb, pretreatment SII, and posttreatment SIRI to forecast DSS. Conclusions The pretreatment Hb, pretreatment SII, posttreatment SII, and posttreatment SIRI are associated with survival in patients with stage IV oropharyngeal cancers. The developed nomogram aids in survival prediction and treatment adjustment.
