Late toxicities in patients treated with IC+CCRT versus CCRT

Late toxicity	IC+CCRT (n=38)	CCRT (n=33)	p-value^a)
Xerostomia^b)	4 (10.5)	7 (21.2)	0.215
Hearing loss^b)	14 (36.8)	10 (30.3)	0.561
Skin dystrophy	1 (2.6)	1 (3.0)	> 0.999
Neck fibrosis	9 (23.7)	6 (18.2)	0.571
Trismus^b)	3 (8.1)	2 (6.1)	> 0.999
Radiation encephalopathy	1 (2.6)	2 (6.1)	0.901
Cranial nerve palsy	2 (5.2)	4 (12.1)	0.543
Memory impairment^c)	7 (18.4)	5 (15.2)	0.714

Values are presented as number (%). IC, induction chemotherapy; CCRT, concomitant chemoradiotherapy.

^a)

p-values were calculated using a chi-square test (or Fisher exact test),

^b)

Grade 2-4 toxicities,

^c)

Grade 2-3 toxicities.
