Brief Summary

Supraglottic cancer is a main type of laryngeal carcinoma, which is one of the most common head and neck tumors. Cervical nodal metastasis is an important prognostic factor in supraglottic cancer. Current management, following the US National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines for T1-2, N0 supraglottic cancer (NCCN 2017), is either definitive radiotherapy or primary surgery with or without neck dissection. The optimal neck treatments strategy remains unclear in clinical settings owing to the limitation of a small number of retrospective studies and a lack of prospective trials. The investigators conducted a prospective, randomised trial to compare radiotherapy with neck dissection.

Study Arms (2)

Radiotherapy

EXPERIMENTAL

Radiotherapy \& open partial supraglottic laryngectomy(primary tumor)

Radiation: Radiotherapy

Elective neck dissection

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Elective neck dissection \& open partial supraglottic laryngectomy(primary tumor)

Procedure: Selective neck dissection

Interventions

RadiotherapyRADIATION

Radiotherapy with a dose of 66-70 Gy is used to manage the cervical lymph nodes

Radiotherapy

Selective neck dissection, defined as surgical clearance of the upper jugular (leveI II), midjugular (level III) and sometimes submandibular (level I) nodes, is used to manage the cervical lymph nodes

Elective neck dissection
