Comparison of Survival Outcomes of Different Treatment Options for cT1-2, N0 Glottic Carcinoma: A Propensity Score–Weighted Analysis

BackgroundTreatments for cT1-2, N0 glottic squamous cell carcinoma (GLSCC) include endoscopic resection, open surgery, and radiotherapy. The purpose of this study was to compare the outcomes of three treatment modalities and provide reference data for treatment selection.MethodsIn all, 4274 patients...

description BackgroundTreatments for cT1-2, N0 glottic squamous cell carcinoma (GLSCC) include endoscopic resection, open surgery, and radiotherapy. The purpose of this study was to compare the outcomes of three treatment modalities and provide reference data for treatment selection.MethodsIn all, 4274 patients with cT1-2, N0 GLSCC underwent these three treatment modalities from 2004 to 2015 were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results-18 database. Overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) of patients treated with the three modalities were compared.ResultsIn the entire cohort, there were no significant differences in 5-year OS and 5-year DSS among the three treatment groups. In subgroup analyses based on stage and age, endoscopic resection provided significantly better 5-year survival than radiotherapy for cT1, N0 patients aged <65 years, with an OS rate of 89.0% vs. 82.3% (p = 0.009) and a DSS rate of 95.6% vs. 88.2% (p = 0.021). For 5-year DSS, open surgery also had better outcomes than patients who received radiotherapy (5-year DSS: 98.5% vs. 88.2%, respectively; p = 0.046).ConclusionsTo summarize, for cT1, N0 GLSCC patients younger than 65 years, surgical treatment (either endoscopic or open) appears to be superior to the radiotherapy, and endoscopic resection should probably be the first consideration.
