Résumé

The increasing number of patients under surveillance after treatment of human papillomavirus-related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) places a great burden on healthcare providers. The aim of this study was to explore OPSCC recurrences in a long follow-up period: their site, frequency and timepoint after primary treatment, treatment and outcome. The secondary aim was to investigate if the recurrences are diagnosed on routine follow-up visits, and if the p16 status will have an effect on the pattern of recurrences. We analyzed recurrences within a 10-year follow-up period after completed curatively intended treatment among OPSCC patients in Finland treated between 2000 and 2009. Patient-, tumor-, treatment- and follow-up -related parameters were investigated. Out of 495 patients with no residual tumor during the first six months, 71 (14%) were diagnosed with a recurrence, of which 47 were locoregional and 28 were treated with curative intent. Of the recurrences, 86% were diagnosed during the first 36 months after primary treatment. Only ten recurrences appeared after 36 months. The median OS after recurrence was 10.9 months. Routine follow-up longer than three years after treatment seems not to be effective in terms of detecting OPSCC recurrences.

BACKGROUND UNASSIGNED
The increasing number of patients under surveillance after treatment of human papillomavirus-related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) places a great burden on healthcare providers.
AIMS/OBJECTIVES UNASSIGNED
The aim of this study was to explore OPSCC recurrences in a long follow-up period: their site, frequency and timepoint after primary treatment, treatment and outcome. The secondary aim was to investigate if the recurrences are diagnosed on routine follow-up visits, and if the p16 status will have an effect on the pattern of recurrences.
MATERIAL AND METHODS UNASSIGNED
We analyzed recurrences within a 10-year follow-up period after completed curatively intended treatment among OPSCC patients in Finland treated between 2000 and 2009. Patient-, tumor-, treatment- and follow-up -related parameters were investigated.
RESULTS UNASSIGNED
Out of 495 patients with no residual tumor during the first six months, 71 (14%) were diagnosed with a recurrence, of which 47 were locoregional and 28 were treated with curative intent. Of the recurrences, 86% were diagnosed during the first 36 months after primary treatment. Only ten recurrences appeared after 36 months. The median OS after recurrence was 10.9 months.
CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE UNASSIGNED
Routine follow-up longer than three years after treatment seems not to be effective in terms of detecting OPSCC recurrences.
