Use of Radiation Therapy in Metastatic Nasopharyngeal Cancer Improves Survival: A SEER Analysis
Abstract Limited data indicated radiotherapy might provide survival benefits to patients with distantly metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (mNPC). We used the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results database to examine the role of radiotherapy in the treatment of mNPC. Patients with mNPC at prese...
