## Abstract ## Background. To evaluate qualityβadjusted survival (QAS) of patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck treated with 4 different radiation fractionation schedules. ## Methods. QAS was calculated using the qualityβadjusted time without toxicity or rel
The current study presents mature results from a Phase III randomized trial comparing radiation therapy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with resectable American Joint Committee on Cancer Stage III and IV disease.
## Background: The aim was to evaluate the relationship between nutrition support (ns) on host toxicity and cancer outcome in patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (hnscc) undergoing definitive radiotherapy (xrt). ## Methods: We performed a secondary analysis of rad
