- W2596733215 abstract "Purpose/Objective(s)Malnutrition is a common problem for head and neck cancer patients. Loss of skeletal muscle mass, or sarcopenia, has been associated with malnutrition, poor tolerance of cancer therapy, and poorer outcomes in a number of malignancies. At our institution, we initiated a nutritional program where patients treated with definitive radiation therapy (RT) are evaluated and closely followed by a registered oncologic dietitian. In this report, we analyze nutritional factors and compliance with dietary recommendations for associations with overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in patients receiving definitive RT for laryngeal and oropharyngeal cancers.Materials/MethodsWe identified 352 patients with non-metastatic oropharyngeal (146) and laryngeal (206) cancer who were treated with definitive RT between 2004 and 2013. Disease and patient characteristics, treatment information, compliance with nutritional program, and clinical outcomes data were tabulated. Adherence to the nutritional program was scored weekly and patients were deemed non-compliant with nutritional program if they cancelled >25% of their appointments with the dietitian, refused nutritional counseling or did not follow recommendations. Of the 352 patients, 158 patients had a pretreatment CT including the abdomen within 30 days of RT start date to assess sarcopenia. Sarcopenia was defined based on muscle areas at the level of L3 using cutoffs established by Prado et al. Descriptive statistics, Kaplan Meier survival analysis, and log rank tests were performed, and Cox regression models were used to examine predictors of OS and PFS.ResultsThe median follow-up for the entire cohort was 22.86 (0.56-116) months. The actuarial rates for OS were 91%, 86% and 73% at years 1, 2, and 5, respectively. 70.9% (112/158) of patient with abdominal CT prior to starting RT were sarcopenic with a median muscle mass index of 48.2 (range: 30.4-70.9) for males and 35.9 (range: 24.6-53.2) for females. 85.8% (302/352) of patients met with a dietitian during their course of RT and 62.5% of patients who met with dietitian were compliant with the nutritional program. Compliance with the nutritional program resulted in 27% (HR: 0.73, 95% CI: 0.43, 1.26) and 31% (HR: 0.69, 95% CI: 0.50, 0.94) protection from death and disease progression. Lower pretreatment BMI was associated with a higher risk for death (HR: 0.94, 95%CI: 0.90, 0.99) and disease progression (HR: 0.96, 95% CI: 0.93, 0.99). Sarcopenia was not independently predictive for increased risk for overall death and disease progression.ConclusionLaryngeal and oropharyngeal cancer patients treated with definitive RT who are compliant with an aggressive nutritional program appear to have improved outcomes. Sarcopenia is very common in this patient population and further studies exploring ways to increase compliance with nutritional programs are warranted.
