V. Budach – Statements on H&N Cancer - 46 Locally Advanced Squamous Cell Carcinomas of the Oro- und Hypopharynx Concurrent chemoradiation is the standard of care for inoperable H&N-Cancer ! For patients not amenable for concurrent CXRT, hyperfractionated XRT is the standard of care! Conclusions
V. Budach – Statements on H&N Cancer - 47 Perspectives in Head and Neck Cancer Potential improvement of the Therapeutic Index by means of: Optimized Radiotherapy Techniques “IMRT” = Intensity-Modulated RadioTherapy for dose escalation and organs at risk/tissue protection “IMRT” = Intensity-Modulated RadioTherapy for dose escalation and organs at risk/tissue protection Small molecules EGFR-MoAb (Cetuximab, Erbitux, Gefinitib) Cox-II Inhibitors Bevacuzimab Cytostatic drugs: Taxanes (Paclitaxel, Doxetaxel), Gemcitabine, Irinotecan
V. Budach – Statements on H&N Cancer - 48 Optimal combination of chemoradiation with standard or altered fractionation? Do late effects of chemoradiation compromize the therapeutic benefit (therapeutic ratio )? Can the addition of „small molecules“ additionally improve chemoradiation results? Is there a definitive role of surgery (for salvage) after chemoradiation? Open Questions in the Definitive Treatment of Locally Advanced Head and Neck Cancer
