Background: NACT regimen for patients with oral cavity scc is based on maximum tolerated doses (MTD). Combination of MTD and metronomic chemotherapy schedule will lead to initial debulking of tumor and subsequent inhibition of angiogenesis, this may produce synergistic effect and overcome the drug resistance of MTD schedule. We assessed the efficacy and safety of this combination as NACT in patients with technically unresectable oral cavity SCC. Methods: This is retrospective analysis of prospectively maintained data. Fourteen patients having technically unresectable oral cavity SCC received NACT with paclitaxel (175mg/m2) plus carboplatin (AUC5) 3 weekly (MTD schedule) and OMCT (methotrexate 9mg/m2 once a week, celecoxib 200mg twice daily and erlotinib 150mg once daily). Patient were assessed clinically and radiologically after minimum of two cycles for resectability. Radiological response was evaluated as per RECIST 1.1. We report response rate, resectability and tolerance of this NACT regimen. Results: Median age of the patients was 38 years. Twelve patients (85%) were male. Twelve (85%) and two (15%) patients had buccal mucosa and oral tongue primary respectively. AJCC 2017 stage IVA and IVB disease was present in 85% and 15% patients respectively. Reason for technical unresectabilty was skin edema above zygoma in five (36%), high infratemporal fossa involvement in five (36%), nodal encasement of major vessels in two (14%) and posterior extent of oral tongue tumor into oropharynx in two (14%) patients. Median number of NACT administered were three. The tumor of nine (64%) patients showed partial response and none of the patients had tumor progression. Tumor of nine patients (64%) were deemed resectable after NACT. Common grade 3/4 toxicities (CTCAE 5.0) were neutropenia in eight (57%), thrombocytopenia in three (21%), febrile neutropenia, hypokalemia and diarrhoea in two patients (14%) each. Conclusions: Paclitaxel and carboplatin along with OMCT is well tolerated and easily administered NACT regimen with high response rate and resectabilty in patients with technically unresectable oral cavity SCC.
