Abstract
OBJECTIVES Medical therapies to limit disease recurrence are critically needed for recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). Systemic bevacizumab is emerging as an exciting adjuvant therapy toward this end, but uptake has been poor due to the lack of experience and awareness of best prescribing practices. The objective of this study was to describe a single tertiary care academic medical center's experience using systemic bevacizumab for the treatment of RRP. METHODS A retrospective review was performed to identify patients with RRP on systemic bevacizumab. Demographic and clinical characteristics, findings on imaging reports, and disease response at all anatomic subsites involved in papilloma were documented. RESULTS Of the 17 RRP patients on systemic bevacizumab, 9 (52.9%) were male, and 12 (70.6%) were diagnosed with juvenile-onset RRP. The total lifetime number of surgeries was high, with more than half (n = 9; 52.9%) undergoing more than 50 surgeries. Following induction of systemic bevacizumab, a significant reduction in patients with laryngeal (n = 15; 94.1% vs. n = 7; 41.2%, p < 0.001) and tracheal (n = 11; 64.7% vs. n = 5; 29.4%, p = 0.04) RRP was noted. Surgical frequency was significantly lower following systemic bevacizumab (2.5 vs. 0.5 surgeries per year; p < 0.001). The most common complications were new-onset hypertension (n = 4; 23.5%) and proteinuria (n = 5; 29.4%). CONCLUSION Systemic bevacizumab is effective in reducing the number of surgeries needed for RRP while exhibiting a relatively safe complication profile. Papillomas in the larynx and trachea are most responsive to systemic bevacizumab, while pulmonary RRP is most likely to exhibit a partial-to-stable response.

Abstract
Juvenile onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis is a lifelong benign squamous lesion associated with HPV infection, particularly HPV6 and HPV11 genotypes. These lesions are rare, but can lead to laryngeal obturations, which can cause disabling dyspnea, or transform into squamous cell carcinoma. The aim here is to provide an epidemiological, biological and clinical overview of this pathology, particularly in children, in order to understand the issues at stake in terms of research and the development of medical and therapeutic management tools.

[PMID: 38180605 DOI: 10.1007/s00405-023-08430-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To characterize treatment response of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) including adult-onset RRP (AORRP) and juvenile-onset RRP (JORRP) to systemic bevacizumab (bev), and share our treatment regimen experience. METHODS Patients were enrolled in bev treatment based on a pathologically confirmed diagnosis of squamous papilloma. According to lesion characteristics and medical history, systemic bev was used as preoperative adjuvant therapy, postoperative adjuvant therapy, or primary therapy. The assessment of treatment response relied on the morphological changes of lesions. Vocalization and voice-related quality of life were evaluated using the voice handicap index-30 (VHI-30) for adults and the pediatric VHI (pVHI) for children. Adverse effect was monitored through patient self-reported symptoms and regular follow-ups. RESULTS This study included 24 patients, comprising nine AORRP and 15 JORRP cases. In AORRP, all patients (100%) exhibited various degrees of response to systemic bev, with 5 (55.56%) achieving complete response (CR). Among JORRP patients, 14 (93.33%) showed a response to systemic bev, with 8 (53.33%) achieving CR and currently being followed up. No instances of aggravation were observed during systemic bev treatment. A total of 21 patients (21/24, 87.50%) reported voice improvement, accompanied by reduced VHI-30 or pVHI scores across all aspects, including total, functional, physical, and emotional dimensions. No grade 3 or higher adverse events occurred. The most common adverse events were grade 1 gum bleeding (n = 4, 16.67%) and grade 1 proteinuria (n = 4, 16.67%). CONCLUSIONS Systemic bev can be used as a powerful therapy for both AORRP and JORRP. The findings provide a reference to the systemic bev treatment for RRP.

Long-Term Follow-up of Parenteral Bevacizumab In Patients with Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis. Laryngoscope 2023; 133:2725-2733. [PMID: 36815602 DOI: 10.1002/lary.30617] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2022] [Revised: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The clinical course of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) varies from spontaneous remission to severe airway obstruction with wide variability in recurrence. Standard treatment involves debulking to improve voice and/or breathing. Non-surgical therapies are emerging in hopes of non-operative disease control. This retrospective review analyzes long-term safety, efficacy, and durability of clinical control in the largest reported series of parenteral bevacizumab in adults with RRP. METHODS Twenty-three patients with known RRP who have been receiving off-label systemic bevacizumab were included. Dosage, infusion interval, number of cycles, debulking requirements, subjective outcomes, adverse events, and reasons for treatment termination were investigated. RESULTS Patients have been followed for an average of 791.43 (21-1468) days. The most common starting dosing regimen was 15 mg/kg at 3 weeks in 11 followed by 10 mg/kg at 6 weeks intervals in 6 individuals. Long-term maintenance dosage varied with the least intensive regimen being 10 mg/kg at 14-week intervals. Subjective improvement of voice and/or breathing was reported in 18/23 subjects. The median time for patients that needed a procedure after treatment was 634 days. Procedures after infusions decreased from 3.08 ± 2.48 procedures in the year prior to 0.52 ± 1.12 during systemic Bevacizumab, and to 0.86 ± 2.05 after stopping bevacizumab. Therapy termination occurred in 8 subjects where only 3 were due to adverse events. CONCLUSION Parenteral bevacizumab remains a well-tolerated treatment for patients with recalcitrant RRP. There appears to be a durable reduction in the frequency of debulking surgery requirements although on a maintenance regimen. Laryngoscope, 133:2725-2733, 2023.
