Abstract

The role of chemotherapy in nodal metastases from penile squamous cell carcinoma is not defined. We evaluated the efficacy of a combination of T-PF (a taxane, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil) in neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings. Since June of 2004, T-PF was administered to stage N2 to 3 patients. With time, neoadjuvant chemotherapy administration prevailed with respect to use in the adjuvant setting. Primary end points were progression-free (PFS) and overall (OS) survival. Secondary objectives were tolerability and activity in the neoadjuvant setting. Nonparametric tests, Kaplan-Meier, and regression analyses were performed. As of October of 2012, 47 consecutive N2 to 3 M0 patients had undergone neoadjuvant (n = 28) or adjuvant (n = 19) T-PF: 18 patients (38.3%) remain disease-free after a median follow-up of 22 months (interquartile range, 17-42 months). The 2-year disease-free survivals were 36.8% (95% confidence interval [CI], 15.2-58.5) versus 7.1% (95% CI, 0-16.7) after adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapy, respectively. N3 metastases were associated with a poorer PFS, and bilateral metastases and mutated p53 were associated with a poorer OS. After neoadjuvant treatment, 43% clinical responses and 14% complete pathologic remiss...Continue Reading
