    OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the impact of heat and moisture exchanger (HME) use on respiratory complications after total laryngectomy (TL), and to identify factors associated with continued use, with a focus on initiation timing and inpatient education. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 118 patients who underwent TL between 2017 and 2024 at two tertiary centers. Patients were categorized by HME initiation (yes/no), timing (early ≤ 1 month postoperatively during hospitalization vs. late), and adherence (continued vs. discontinued). Respiratory infection and prolonged use of expectorants or antitussives were assessed as clinical outcomes. Logistic regression was performed to identify predictors of continued HME use. RESULTS: Among 96 patients who initiated HME, 80 (83.3%) maintained long-term use. Compared to the non-use group (n = 38), continued users had significantly fewer respiratory infections (8.8% vs. 50%, p < 0.01) and less prolonged use of expectorants or antitussives (3.8% vs. 18.4%, p = 0.01). Early initiation and tracheoesophageal puncture use were both significantly associated with continued use (p = 0.02 each). Although peristomal skin complications were more common in the discontinued group, targeted skin care and individualized device selection enabled many patients to continue. CONCLUSION: Early and sustained HME use significantly reduced respiratory morbidity following TL. Initiation during hospitalization, along with structured education on device handling, skin care, and baseplate management, played a key role in supporting adherence. These findings support standardized inpatient protocols for HME introduction.

    BACKGROUND: The optimal chemotherapy regimen in concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for cisplatin-ineligible head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) has not been established. We aimed to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of CCRT with weekly low-dose carboplatin for the treatment of advanced HNSCC in patients who are cisplatin-ineligible. METHODS: This prospective phase II study enrolled adult patients (age ≥ 20 years) with HNSCC receiving whole-neck irradiation including bilateral levels II-IV and who were aged (≥ 75-year-old patients with 40 mL/min estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] or better) or had renal dysfunction (< 75-year-old patients with 30-60 mL/min eGFR). Carboplatin was administered weekly (area under the plasma concentration-time curve = 2.0) for up to seven cycles during concurrent radiotherapy (70 Gy/35 Fr). The primary endpoint was the completion rate of CCRT. Secondary endpoints included overall response rate and incidence of adverse events. RESULTS: Among the 30 patients enrolled, 28 were men. The median age was 73.5 years. Seventeen patients were < 75 years whereas 13 were ≥ 75 years old. The completion rate of CCRT was 90%. The overall response rate was 90%. Grade 3 adverse events that occurred in 10% or more patients were oral/pharyngeal mucositis (47%), leukocytopenia (20%), and neutropenia (10%). Grade 4 adverse events occurred in one patient (elevation of alanine aminotransferase level). No treatment-related deaths occurred. CONCLUSION: CCRT with weekly low-dose carboplatin is a promising treatment option, with favorable feasibility, efficacy, and acceptable toxicity, for patients who are cisplatin-ineligible with advanced HNSCC. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: jRCTs031190028.

    The sarcopenia index (SI), calculated as [(serum creatinine/serum cystatin C) × 100], maybe a simpler alternative for measuring muscle mass than computed tomography (CT) and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). We enrolled 112 patients with head and neck cancers (HNC). The correlation of the SI with muscle surface area measured by CT (CTMSA, n = 82) and muscle mass by BIA (BIA-MM, n = 41) was tested. Cutoff values were set for SI, CTMSA, and BIA-MM. Overall survival (OS) was compared between the high- and low-SI/CTMSA/BIA-MM groups. The SI was correlated with CTMSA (r = 0.43) and BIA-MM (r = 0.52). The optimal cutoff values of SI, CTMSA, and BIA-MM were 76.1 (area under the curve [AUC] = 0.67), 129.2 (AUC = 0.59), and 46.1 (AUC = 0.62), respectively. OS was significantly lower in the low-SI group (78% at 1 year and 69% at 2 years) than in the high-SI group (94% at 1 year and 86% at 2 years; p = 0.006). There was no significant difference in OS between the low-and high-CTMSA and -BIA-MM groups. The SI, which only requires a blood sample, is a useful marker of muscle mass that correlates with short-term prognosis in patients with HNC.

    INTRODUCTION: Immune-related adverse events (irAEs) are prognostic factors for patients on nivolumab. However, predictors of irAEs have not yet been identified. We aimed to investigate the predictors of irAEs occurrence and nivolumab discontinuation due to irAEs. METHODS: Sixty-two patients with recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma received nivolumab therapy between June 2017 and December 2020. Treatment outcome was compared between the groups with or without irAEs. The irAE (+) group was further divided by nivolumab discontinuation. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared between the groups. Predictors of irAE occurrence were analyzed. RESULTS: Twenty-one patients (33.9%) developed irAEs, and six (28.6%) discontinued nivolumab due to severe irAEs. The irAE (+) group had significantly longer PFS and OS than the irAE (-) group (median PFS, 12.7 vs. 1.9 months; median OS, 33.1 vs. 12.8 months). The treatment outcomes in the discontinuation group were comparable to those in the non-discontinuation group. The maximum absolute eosinophil count (AEC) during nivolumab therapy was significantly higher in the irAE (+) group than in the irAE (-) group (548.8 vs. 182) and higher in the discontinuation group than in the non-discontinuation group (729.3 vs. 368.6). The receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the maximum AEC had a moderate-to-high accuracy for predicting irAE occurrence (area under the curve [AUC], 0.757) and nivolumab discontinuation (AUC, 0.893). DISCUSSION: Monitoring AEC during nivolumab therapy may be useful in predicting irAE occurrence, nivolumab discontinuation, and disease prognosis.

    OBJECTIVE: Recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) treatment has changed dramatically with the introduction of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). However, there are few reports of treatment outcomes on HNSCC with distant metastasis (M1) at initial diagnosis, and its treatment strategy has not been standardized. We aimed to analyze the treatment outcome and prognostic factors of patients with HNSCC with initial M1 disease. METHODS: In this multi-institutional retrospective study, 98 patients with HNSCC were initially diagnosed with M1 disease between 2007 and 2021. The patients were divided into the non-palliative (received any systemic chemotherapy, n = 60) and palliative (did not receive systemic chemotherapy, n = 38) groups. Overall survival (OS) was compared between the groups. In the non-palliative group, predictors of OS were explored based on patient characteristics and treatment details. RESULTS: The median OS in the non-palliative group was 15 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 10-20), which was significantly longer than that in the palliative group (3 months, 95% CI, 2-5) (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that administration of locoregional radiation therapy (RT) (hazard ratio [HR] 0.407 [95% CI 0.197-0.844]; p = 0.016), ICIs (HR 0.216 [95% CI 0.088-0.532]; p < 0.001) and RT/surgery for distant metastasis (HR 0.373 [95% CI 0.150-0.932]; p = 0.034) were the independent prognostic factors of OS. CONCLUSION: An intensive treatment strategy combining systemic therapy using ICIs with RT/surgery for locoregional or distant metastasis may yield a survival benefit for patients with HNSCC with M1 disease.

    OBJECTIVE: The management for malodour of malignant fungating wounds (MFWs) in head and neck cancer (HNC) is unestablished. We evaluated the effects of a novel odour transferrer on malodour generated by MFWs in patients with HNC. METHODS: A spray-type odour transferrer approved by the Japanese government for safe use in humans produces a good scent by binding to bad odour. The odour of MFWs in 13 patients with HNC was scored by 37 medical staff and the patients' families using an odour scale ranging from 0 to 4 before and 1 week after application of the odour transferrer. RESULTS: The odour score marked by all investigators (n=37), nurses (n=21) and doctors (n=11) decreased significantly (p<0.01). The odour score decreased by more than 2 points for 73% of all investigators after odour transferrer application. CONCLUSION: This novel odour transferrer functions as an effective deodorant for MFWs in patients with HNC. It can be used by non-medical staff and may benefit patients with bad odours arising from MFWs as well as their families and medical staff.

    Despite the recent progression of treatments, the 5-year survival rate of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is still poor. One of the most critical factors affecting prognosis is tumor metastasis. Developing novel molecular targeted therapies by analyzing the molecular pathway of OSCC metastasis is an urgent issue. The present study aimed to characterize the expression and function of crumbs3 (Crb3) in OSCC cell migration. Immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting revealed that Crb3 was expressed in tissues from patients with OSCC and OSCC cell lines. The motility of OSCC cell lines was decreased by knockdown of Crb3 without affecting proliferation. However, Crb3-knockout (KO) clones exhibited decreases in both cell migration and proliferation. The expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition markers was not altered in Crb3-KO clones compared with parent cells. A xenograft mouse model of lung metastasis revealed that the metastatic potential of Crb3-KO clones was reduced. As seen with Crb3-KO clones, the motility of OSCC cells was decreased by treatment with inhibitors of RhoA activation. Serum-induced activation of RhoA in OSCC cells was evaluated by comparing the amount of GTP-bound RhoA using affinity matrices, revealing that RhoA activation was decreased in Crb3-KO clones. To the best of our knowledge, the present study was the first to demonstrate that Crb3 was expressed in squamous cell carcinoma tissues and promoted cell migration and proliferation, which was associated with RhoA activation in OSCC cells.

    BACKGROUND: Head and neck mucosal melanoma (HNMM) is a rare and aggressive subtype of melanoma. HNMM often develops as a recurrent or metastatic disease, and its prognosis is worse than that of cutaneous melanoma. Recent large-scale clinical studies have reported favorable outcomes with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for melanoma. However, these clinical trials included only a small number of HNMM cases. This study aimed to estimate treatment outcomes and prognostic predictors of ICIs for advanced HNMM. METHODS: Cases of advanced HNMM, defined as unresectable or metastatic HNMM at the initial diagnosis (five patients) or development of recurrent/metastatic HNMM after initial treatment (27 patients), were included in this study. Survival analysis and a search for prognostic factors were performed for these 32 patients. Furthermore, the detailed clinical course of patients who received ICI treatment was investigated. RESULTS: The median overall survival (OS) of 32 patients with advanced HNMM was 25.3 months. The estimated 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS rates were 68.4%, 42.8%, and 34.3%, respectively. Fourteen patients (43.7%) received ICIs, whereas 18 (56.3%) did not. Univariate analysis showed that ICI treatment was the only factor associated with a better 1-year OS. Patients who received ICI treatment had significantly longer OS (median OS: not reached, 1-year OS: 85.7%) than those who did not (median OS: 11.3 months, 1-year OS: 54.5%). The overall response and disease control rates of patients who received ICI treatment were 50% and 64.3%, respectively. Patients who achieved complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) to ICI treatment survived significantly longer (1-year OS: 100%) than those who did not (1-year OS: 71.4%). Among the five patients who discontinued ICI treatment due to severe immune-related adverse events (irAEs), four did not receive salvage treatments but showed durable treatment effects and survived for 9.8-54.2 months at the end of the follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS: ICI treatment achieved a favorable OS for advanced HNMM. CR/PR to ICI treatment and discontinuation owing to severe irAEs were favorable predictors of OS.

    OBJECTIVE: Basal information of head and neck small-cell carcinoma (HNSmCC) including epidemiology, primary site, treatment, and prognosis remains sparse due to its rarity. We report here a multicenter retrospective study on the diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes of patients with HNSmCC. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study involved 47 patients with HNSmCC from 10 participating institutions. Eight patients were excluded for whom no pathological specimens were available (n = 2) and for discrepant central pathological judgements (n = 6). The remaining 39 patients were processed for data analysis. RESULTS: As pretreatment examinations, computed tomography (CT) was performed for the brain (n = 8), neck (n = 39), and chest (n = 32), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the brain (n = 4) and neck (n = 23), positron emission tomography-CT (PET-CT) in 23 patients, bone scintigraphy in 4, neck ultrasonography in 9, and tumor markers in 25. Primary sites were oral cavity (n = 1), nasal cavity/paranasal sinuses (n = 16), nasopharynx (n = 2), oropharynx (n = 4), hypopharynx (n = 2), larynx (n = 6), salivary gland (n = 3), thyroid (n = 2), and others (n = 3). Stages were II/III/IV-A/IV-B/IV-C/Not determined = 3/5/16/6/5/4; stage IV comprised 69%. No patient had brain metastases. First-line treatments were divided into 3 groups: the chemoradiotherapy (CRT) group (n = 27), non-CRT group (n = 8), and best supportive care group (n = 4). The CRT group included concurrent CRT (CCRT) (n = 17), chemotherapy (Chemo) followed by radiotherapy (RT) (n = 5), and surgery (Surg) followed by CCRT (n = 5). The non-CRT group included Surg followed by RT (n = 2), Surg followed by Chemo (n = 1), RT alone (n = 2), and Chemo alone (n = 3). The 1-year/2-year overall survival (OS) of all 39 patients was 65.3/53.3%. The 1-year OS of the CRT group (77.6%) was significantly better compared with the non-CRT group (31.3%). There were no significant differences in adverse events between the CCRT group (n = 22) and the Chemo without concurrent RT group (n = 9). CONCLUSION: Neck and chest CT, neck MRI, and PET-CT would be necessary and sufficient examinations in the diagnostic set up for HNSmCC. CCRT may be recommended as the first-line treatment. The 1-year/2-year OS was 65.3%/53.3%. This study would provide basal data for a proposing the diagnostic and treatment algorithms for HNSmCC.

    OBJECTIVE: The global standard for chemoradiation therapy (CCRT) for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is cisplatin 100 mg/m2 administered once every three weeks, although cisplatin 80 mg/m2 is also widely used as an alternative treatment to reduce adverse events in Japan. We aimed to assess the long-term survival outcomes and late adverse events associated with CCRT with a 3-weekly cisplatin dose of 80 mg/m2. METHODS: A phase 2 study on CCRT with a 3-weekly cisplatin dose of 80 mg/m2 was performed in 47 patients between April 2015 and December 2016 at four centers in Japan. Survival outcomes and late adverse events at 5 years after this phase 2 trial were investigated. RESULTS: The median follow-up period was 61 months. The 5-year progression-free survival/overall survival of all 47 patients was 66.0%/76.6%, while that of patients with stage III, IV disease (UICC) was 65.6%/71.9%. Seventeen patients (36%) experienced dysphagia as a late adverse event. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed a significant association between acute mucositis/low body mass index (BMI) during CCRT and late dysphagia. CONCLUSION: The survival outcomes of CCRT with a 3-weekly cisplatin dose of 80 mg/m2 may be comparable to the previously reported dose of 100 mg/m2. Acute mucositis and low BMI at CCRT were risk factors for late dysphagia, indicating the importance of managing these conditions during CCRT to prevent late adverse events. Caution and care for acute mucositis and swallowing training in patients with low BMI may be important for preventing late-stage dysphagia.

    We previously reported that high expression of procollagen‑lysine 2‑oxoglutarate 5‑dioxygenase 2 (PLOD2) leads to stabilization and plasma membrane translocation of integrin β1 to promote the invasion and metastasis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The present study aimed to further understand the relationship between PLOD2‑integrin β1 signaling and the tumor microenvironment. This study provided further advanced insights indicating that elevated interleukin (IL)‑6 in the tumor microenvironment acts as a key molecule that triggers PLOD2‑integrin β1 axis‑derived acceleration of tumor invasion and metastasis. It was found using the dual‑luciferase reporter assay system that signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) activation by IL‑6 was essential for increasing the expression levels of PLOD2 through direct activation of the PLOD2 promoter in oral SCC, whereas IL‑6 stimulation did not contribute to integrin β1 expression or the subsequent maturation process towards a functional form on the plasma membrane. Furthermore, the expression of IL‑6 in oral SCC tissues was mainly observed in the tumor stroma. Finally, with double immunofluorescence staining, it was found that IL‑6 expression occurred in CD163‑positive M2 macrophages distributed around the tumor nest. These results combined with our previous results indicate that as IL‑6 significantly increases STAT3‑mediated PLOD2 promoter activity, IL‑6 released by M2‑type tumor‑associated macrophages is a crucial factor that promotes PLOD2‑integrin β1 axis‑enhanced invasion and metastasis of oral SCC cells.

    We examined the role of lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR) in the treatment of external ear canal (EAC) carcinoma between 2007 and 2018. The estimated 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) according to the tumor stage and treatments were investigated in 36 patients with EAC squamous cell carcinoma. T stage classification according to the University of Pittsburgh staging system was as follows: 14 patients in T1, four patients in T2, nine patients in T3, and nine patients in T4. The 3-year DFS rate was 77.4% for T1 tumors, 100% for T2, 44.4% for T3 tumors, and 11.1% for T4 tumors (p < 001). The 3-year DSS rate was 100% for T1/T2 tumors, 87.5% for T3 tumors, and 11.1% for T4 tumors (p < 0.01). T1/T2 patients received mostly LTBR. Among nine T3 tumors, five patients (56%) received LTBR combined with preoperative chemotherapy and/or postoperative radiation (RT). Four of them had negative surgical margin and survived with no evidence of disease. The DFS of T3 patients who underwent concurrent chemoradiotherapy and LTBR was 0 and 80%, respectively (p = 0.048). For T1/T2 tumors, surgery achieved an excellent outcome. For T3 tumors, LTBR achieved negative surgical margin and showed good survival when combined with preoperative chemotherapy and/or postoperative RT. In contrast, the prognosis of T3 patients who could not undergo surgery was as poor as that of T4 patients. Therefore, in addition to subtotal temporal bone resection, LTBR-based treatment strategy may be a treatment option for limited cases of T3 patients.

    OBJECTIVE: Recent data indicated that concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) using high dose cisplatin (CDDP) is the most useful treatment for advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Regarding the dose of CDDP, 100mg/m2 is most recommended in Western countries. However, in terms of a balance of efficacy and adverse events, appropriate dose of cytotoxic drugs such as CDDP may be different among the different ethnic groups. In this multicenter phase I/II study, we aimed to identify the optimal dose of CDDP in CCRT for patients with advanced head and neck SCC in the Japanese. METHODS: Patients were eligible for inclusion if they had head and neck SCC that was treated with radical CCRT comprising whole-neck irradiation of the primary lesion and level II-IV lymph nodes on both sides. For the phase I study, a CDDP dose was 70mg/m2 for level 0, 80mg/m2 for level 1, and 100mg/m2 for level 2. Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) were examined by phase I trial, by which CDDP dose for phase II was determined. The primary endpoint for the phase II was CCRT completion rate, and the secondary endpoint was full-dose-CCRT completion rate, the percentage of patients receiving a total CDDP dose of ≥200mg/m2, response rate, and incidences of adverse events. RESULTS: A CDDP dose of 100mg/m2 was the MTD for phase I, and the recommended dose for phase II was 80 mg/m2. Forty-seven patients were evaluated in the phase II trial. CCRT completion rate, full-dose-CCRT rate, and the percentage of patients receiving a total CDDP dose of ≥200mg/m2, were 93.6%, 78.7%, and 93.6%, respectively. One patient (2.1%) developed grade 2 renal dysfunction, and no patient developed febrile neutropenia or a grade 4 adverse event. CONCLUSION: The present phase I study indicated that a CDDP dose of 80mg/m2 is the optimal dose in terms of safety. The phase II study revealed that CCRT completion rate, response rate, and rates of adverse events were not inferior for a CDDP dose of 80mg/m2 as compared with a dose of 100mg/m2, and a dose of 80mg/m2 is therefore recommended in CCRT for the Japanese. This study was registered with the University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR; identification No. UMIN000010369).
