Patterns of failure in patients with nasopharyngeal cancer of Northeastern region of India: a retrospective observational study

CONCLUSIONS: For NPC patients who undergo curative IMRT, primary tumour and nodal volumes are independent prognostic indicators. GTVp and GTVn are highly predictive of local control, distant metastases, disease-free survival, and overall survival. This justifies their use as quantitative prognostic indicator for NPC.PMID:38578506 | DOI:10.1007/s00405-024-08624-x
