Conclusions. This regimen of concurrent chemoradiotherapy was safe and well tolerated. In terms of larynx preservation, the present regimen appears to be useful for patients with advanced resectable squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the larynx and hypopharynx. Objectives. To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with advanced resectable SCC of the larynx and hypopharynx, and to demonstrate the feasibility of larynx preservation. Patients and methods. Forty-six eligible patients were treated. The chemotherapy regimen consisted of a combination of four drugs: cisplatin (60u2009mg/m2, day 4), 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) (600u2009mg/m2 given continuously for 120u2009h, days 1–5), methotrexate (MTX) (30u2009mg/m2, day 1), and leucovorin (LV) (20u2009mg/m2, days 1–5). Two cycles of this regimen were given every 4 weeks during radiotherapy. Radiotherapy was delivered 5 days a week using a single daily fraction of 1.8–2.0 Gray, to a total dose of 66.6–70.2 Gray. Results. The 3-year disease-specific survival rates of patients with laryngeal or hypopharyngeal SCC were 81.3% and 78%, respectively. The 3-year disease-specific survival rates with larynx preservation of patients with laryngeal or hypopharyngeal SCC were 46.7% and 59%, respectively. The main toxicities were neutropenia, dermatitis, mucositis, and infection.

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been implicated in tumor invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis. We have recently shown that MMI-166, a new orally active MMP inhibitor specific for MMP-2 and -9, suppressed experimental metastasis of Lewis lung cancer, C-H1 human colon cancer, and pancreatic cancer without affecting tumor growth in vitro. In the present study, we determined whether oral administration of MMI-166 reduces tumor growth not only in such tumors but also in squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck (SCCHN). MMI-166 inhibited both activity of MMP-2 and -9 without affecting steady state levels of their mRNAs in SCCHN. Interestingly, protein levels of MMP-2 and -9 from the cultures were drastically diminished by culturing with MMI-166. This was also observed in xenografts of MMI-166-administered mice. In addition, daily oral administration of MMI-166 (100mg/kg) inhibited local tumor growth accompanied by the reduction of blood vessel density and Ki-67-positivity and increase in terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated cUDP nick-end labeling (TUNEL)-positivity. These results suggested that orally administered MMI-166 reduced in vivo tumor growth of SCCHN through inhibition of angiogenesis and induction of apoptosis accompanied by the reduction of MMP productions and activities. Therefore, MMI-166 seems to be useful for tumor dormancy therapy of SCCHN.

BackgroundThis phase I study was designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and toxicities of combination chemotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN).MethodsPatients received two cycles of chemotherapy repeated every 4 weeks. Starting doses (dose level 0) were: docetaxel 60u2009mg/m2, cisplatin 60u2009mg/m2, and 5-day continuous infusion 5-FU 600u2009mg/m2 per day. At least three patients were examined at each dose level before advancing to the next level.ResultsNineteen male patients (median age, 59.5 years) were enrolled. Eighteen patients had previously untreated stage III or IV SCCHN and 1 had local relapse, rT4. In the 19 patients, the regimen was well tolerated, with neutropenia as the most common toxicity (grade 3; n = 11; grade 4; n = 1). Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) was observed at the fifth dose level (docetaxel 70u2009mg/m2, cisplatin 70u2009mg/m2, 5-FU 750u2009mg/m2 per day), when 1 patient developed grade 2 renal toxicity during the first course; another 2 patients had persistent neutropenia. These doses were thus deemed the MTD for the regimen. In the 18 assessable patients, the overall clinical response rate was 94% (17/18 patients) and primary-site complete response (CR) occurred in 4 (22%) patients.ConclusionThe MTD of this regimen was docetaxel 70u2009mg/m2 on day 1, cisplatin 70u2009mg/m2 on day 4, and 5-FU 750u2009mg/m2 per day for 5 days. The regimen was safe and generally well-tolerated and demonstrated good efficacy in patients with locally advanced SCCHN.

Conclusion. Quantitative assessment is more sensitive as a measure of cellular protein content as compared with standard optical density measurements. The data support the hypothesis that increased epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and transforming growth factor (TGF)-α expression is associated with early events in malignant transformation of pleomorphic adenoma (PA). Objective. In the present study, we attempted to identify EGFR and TGF-α expression and Ki-67 index in carcinoma ex-pleomorphic adenoma (Ca ex-PA) and PA. We also compared the presence of EGFR and TGF-α and Ki-67 index with clinical data. Materials and methods. The tissues were stained with monoclonal antibodies to EGFR, TGF-α and Ki-67. The results were analysed using quantitative immunohistochemical analysis. We also analysed the association of patients’ prognosis with clinical parameters and the histological classification of the carcinomatous component. Results. As regards the association of patients’ prognosis with EGFR staining and Ki-67 index, a significant increase was observed in patients who died or had residual disease compared with patients who were alive without disease. In the immunohistochemical analysis of EGFR and TGF-α and Ki67 index, a significant increase was observed in Ca ex-PA, especially with adenocarcinoma, compared with PA and sialadenitis.

BackgroundChemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) remains a significant problem for patients and is associated with a substantial deterioration in quality of life; appropriate use of antiemetic drugs is crucial in maintaining the quality of life in patients undergoing chemotherapy.MethodsThis randomized, crossover trial evaluated the antiemetic efficacy and safety of 8 mg per day (low-dose) and 16 mg per day (standard-dose) dexamethasone, in combination with the 5-HT3 receptor antagonist granisetron, in 36 patients receiving cisplatin (CDDP)-containing chemotherapy for head and neck cancer. Following chemotherapy, the antinausea/vomiting inhibition rate for each dexamethasone dose was measured.ResultsDuring the 24-h period following administration of chemotherapy (acute phase), the antinausea/vomiting inhibition rates (no nausea and no episodes of vomiting) for 8 mg and 16 mg dexamethasone were comparably high (58.3% and 63.8%, respectively; P = 0.8092). Similar results were seen on days 2–5 following chemotherapy. Efficacy during the acute phase, based on the number of instances of vomiting and degree of nausea, was also comparably high for the two dexamethasone doses (overall efficacy rates were 94.4% and 88.8%, respectively, for 8 mg and 16 mg dexamethasone; P = 0.7637). Both doses maintained an 80% or higher response rate until day 3, and neither dose produced severe side effects.ConclusionThe results suggest that granisetron and dexamethasone combination therapy is useful in controlling acute and delayed nausea and vomiting induced by CDDP-containing chemotherapy for head and neck cancer. Furthermore, 8 mg and 16 mg dexamethasone have equivalent antiemetic efficacy.
