Résumé

The contributions presented at this year's ASCO conference on treatment of recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M-HNSCC) focused on systemic therapies, as in recent years. Two phase III studies-TPExtreme and Keynote-048-are expected to change clinical practice in first-line treatment of R/M-HNSCC. Abstracts and presentations from this year's ASCO Annual Meeting on R/M-HNSCC were screened and checked for clinical relevance. TPExtreme, a randomized phase III trial, could show less toxicity and similar overall survival in patients treated with docetaxel, cisplatin, and cetuximab (TPEx regimen) compared to standard first-line therapy with the Extreme regimen (cisplatin, 5‑fluorouracil [5-FU], cetuximab), albeit failing its endpoint of significantly improved survival. The randomized phase III Keynote-048 study could show a significant survival benefit in all patients treated with pembrolizumab, 5‑FU, and cis-/carboplatin compared to Extreme. When selected patients (PD-L1 CPS ≥1 and ≥20) were treated with pembrolizumab monotherapy, they showed increased overall response rates in contrast to patients treated with Extreme. Based on the results of Keynote-048, pembrolizumab ± chemotherapy gained FDA approval as first-line treatment for R/M-HNSCC in the USA. Approval in Europe is expected soon and will probably have a strong impact on clinical routine.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
The contributions presented at this year's ASCO conference on treatment of recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M-HNSCC) focused on systemic therapies, as in recent years. Two phase III studies-TPExtreme and Keynote-048-are expected to change clinical practice in first-line treatment of R/M-HNSCC.
MATERIALS AND METHODS METHODS
Abstracts and presentations from this year's ASCO Annual Meeting on R/M-HNSCC were screened and checked for clinical relevance.
RESULTS RESULTS
TPExtreme, a randomized phase III trial, could show less toxicity and similar overall survival in patients treated with docetaxel, cisplatin, and cetuximab (TPEx regimen) compared to standard first-line therapy with the Extreme regimen (cisplatin, 5‑fluorouracil [5-FU], cetuximab), albeit failing its endpoint of significantly improved survival. The randomized phase III Keynote-048 study could show a significant survival benefit in all patients treated with pembrolizumab, 5‑FU, and cis-/carboplatin compared to Extreme. When selected patients (PD-L1 CPS ≥1 and ≥20) were treated with pembrolizumab monotherapy, they showed increased overall response rates in contrast to patients treated with Extreme.
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
Based on the results of Keynote-048, pembrolizumab ± chemotherapy gained FDA approval as first-line treatment for R/M-HNSCC in the USA. Approval in Europe is expected soon and will probably have a strong impact on clinical routine.
