Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to compare the outcomes of proton beam therapy (PBT) and carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) by a systematic review and meta-analysis of the existing clinical evidence. METHODS A systematic literature search was performed to identify studies comparing the clinical outcomes of PBT and CIRT. The included studies were required to report oncological outcomes (local control [LC], progression-free survival [PFS], or overall survival [OS]) or adverse events. RESULTS Eighteen articles comprising 1857 patients (947 treated with PBT and 910 treated with CIRT) were included in the analysis. The pooled analysis conducted for the overall population yielded average hazard ratios of 0.690 (95% confidence interval (CI), 0.493-0.967, p = 0.031) for LC, 0.952 (95% CI, 0.604-1.500, p = 0.590) for PFS, and 1.183 (0.872-1.607, p = 0.281) for OS with reference to CIRT. The subgroup analyses included patients treated in the head and neck, areas other than the head and neck, and patients with chordomas and chondrosarcomas. These analyses revealed no significant differences in most outcomes, except for LC in the subgroup of patients treated in areas other than the head and neck. Adverse event rates were comparable in both groups, with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.097 (95% CI, 0.744-1.616, p = 0.641). Meta-regression analysis for possible heterogeneity did not demonstrate a significant association between treatment outcomes and the ratio of biologically effective doses between modalities. CONCLUSION This study highlighted the comparability of PBT and CIRT in terms of oncological outcomes and adverse events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sinonasal neoplasms, whether benign and malignant, pose a significant challenge to clinicians and represent a model area for multidisciplinary collaboration in order to optimize patient care. The International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology: Sinonasal Tumors (ICSNT) aims to summarize the best available evidence and presents 48 thematic and histopathology-based topics spanning the field. METHODS In accordance with prior International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology documents, ICSNT assigned each topic as an Evidence-Based Review with Recommendations, Evidence-Based Review, and Literature Review based on the level of evidence. An international group of multidisciplinary author teams were assembled for the topic reviews using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses format, and completed sections underwent a thorough and iterative consensus-building process. The final document underwent rigorous synthesis and review prior to publication. RESULTS The ICSNT document consists of four major sections: general principles, benign neoplasms and lesions, malignant neoplasms, and quality of life and surveillance. It covers 48 conceptual and/or histopathology-based topics relevant to sinonasal neoplasms and masses. Topics with a high level of evidence provided specific recommendations, while other areas summarized the current state of evidence. A final section highlights research opportunities and future directions, contributing to advancing knowledge and community intervention. CONCLUSION As an embodiment of the multidisciplinary and collaborative model of care in sinonasal neoplasms and masses, ICSNT was designed as a comprehensive, international, and multidisciplinary collaborative endeavor. Its primary objective is to summarize the existing evidence in the field of sinonasal neoplasms and masses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Particle therapy has favorable dose distribution and high curability. However, radiotherapy for malignant tumors adjacent to the gastrointestinal tract is contraindicated owing to its low tolerance. To overcome this, combination treatment with surgery to make a space between the tumor and adjacent gastrointestinal tract followed by particle therapy has been developed. Several materials have been used for the spacer and recently, we developed the absorbable polyglycolic acid (PGA) spacer, which has been used since 2019. This study is the first report of consecutive case series of spacer placement surgery using the PGA spacer. STUDY DESIGN Fifty consecutive patients undergoing spacer placement surgery with the PGA spacer were evaluated. Postoperative laboratory data, morbidity related to the treatment, and spacer volume after treatment were evaluated. RESULTS There were no treatment-related deaths, and all but 2 patients completed combination treatment. The median ratios of postoperative PGA spacer volume to the pretreatment volume were 96.9%, 87.7%, and 74.6% at weeks 2, 4, and 8, respectively. The spacer volume was maintained at 80% at 7 weeks and was predicted to be 50% at 15 weeks and 20% in 24 weeks. CONCLUSIONS Spacer placement surgery using the PGA spacer was feasible and tolerable. The PGA spacers maintained sufficient thickness during the duration of subsequent particle therapy. Combination treatment using the PGA spacer is innovative and has the potential to become a new standard curative local treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to compare oncologic outcomes between definitive radiation therapy (RT) and upfront surgical resection in patients with sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). METHODS AND MATERIALS Between 2008 and 2021, 155 patients with T1-4b, N0-3 sinonasal SCC were analyzed. The 3-year overall survival (OS), local progression-free survival (LPFS), and overall progression-free survival (PFS) were evaluated using the Kaplan Meier method and compared using a log-rank test. A pattern of regional neck lymph node (LN) failure and treatment-related toxicity profiles were investigated. RESULTS A total of 63 and 92 patients underwent upfront RT (RT group) and surgical resection (Surgery group), respectively. The RT group included significantly more patients with T3-4 disease than the Surgery group (90.5% vs 39.1%, P < .001). The rates of 3-year OS, LPFS, and PFS in the RT and Surgery groups were 68.6% versus 81.7% (P = .073), 62.3% versus 73.8% (P = .187), and 47.4% versus 66.1% (P = .005), respectively. However, the corresponding rates in patients with T3-4 disease were 65.1% versus 64.8% (P = .794), 57.4% versus 56.8% (P = .351), and 43.2% versus 46.5% (P = .638), respectively, demonstrating no statistically significant differences between the 2 treatment modalities. Among the 133 N0 patients, regional neck LN progression was observed in 17 patients, and the most common sites of regional neck LN failure were ipsilateral levels Ib (9 patients) and II (7 patients). The 3-year neck node recurrence-free rate in cT1-3N0 patients was 93.5%, while that in cT4N0 patients was 81.1% (P = .025). CONCLUSIONS Upfront RT may be considered in selected patients with locally advanced sinonasal SCC, as we have demonstrated similar oncologic outcomes to those of surgery. Prophylactic neck treatment in T4 disease requires further investigation to evaluate its efficacy.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine oncologic outcomes for patients with T4b sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SNSCC) treated with either surgery plus radiotherapy or definitive radiotherapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 1999 and December 2016, 85 patients with T4b SNSCC were analyzed retrospectively, there were 54 who received surgery plus radiotherapy (S + RT group) ± chemotherapy and 31 with definitive radiotherapy (RT group) ± chemotherapy. A 1: 2 propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to balance clinical factors and match patients. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazard model were used to determine risk factors on survival outcomes. RESULTS The median follow-up time was 76.7 months. The cumulative rates of locoregional control (LRC), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and overall survival (OS) at 5 years for entire cohort were 44.6%, 33.1%, 38.8%, and 33.9% respectively. After PSM, a total of 50 patients in S + RT group and 25 patients in RT group were analyzed. The 5-year LRC, DMFS, CSS, and OS between S + RT and RT group were 58.6% versus 27.5% (p = 0.035), 42.8% versus 20.0% (p = 0.006), 50.3% versus 22.0% (p = 0.005), 44.5% veruss 20.0% (p = 0.004). The 5-year survival rates with orbital retention between groups were 32.7% and 15.0%, p = 0.080. Multivariate Cox analysis revealed non-surgical therapy (HR = 3.678, 95%CI 1.951-6.933) and invasion of cranial nerves (other than maxillary division of trigeminal nerves) (HR = 2.596, 95%CI 1.217-5.535) were associated with decreased OS. CONCLUSION The inclusion of surgery in the multimodal management of T4b SNSCC might confer a survival benefit. Further prospective studies comparing the oncologic outcomes of S + RT with RT are warranted. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3 Laryngoscope, 133:2222-2231, 2023.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate proton beam therapy (PBT) in multimodal treatment for locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinus (NPSCC). METHODS The cases in this study included T3 and T4 NPSCC without distant metastases that were treated at our center using PBT between July 2003 and December 2020. These cases were classified into 3 groups based on resectability and treatment strategy: surgery followed by postoperative PBT (group A); those indicated to be resectable, but the patient refused surgery and received radical PBT (group B); and those declared unresectable based on the extent of the tumor and treated with radical PBT (group C). RESULTS The study included 37 cases, with 10, 9 and 18 in groups A, B and C, respectively. The median follow-up period in surviving patients was 4.4 years (range 1.0-12.3 years). The 4-year overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and local control (LC) rates were 58%, 43% and 58% for all patients; 90%, 70% and 80% in group A, 89%, 78% and 89% in group B; and 24%, 11% and 24% in group C. There were significant differences in OS (p = 0.0028) and PFS (p = 0.009) between groups A and C; and in OS (p = 0.0027), PFS (p = 0.0045) and LC (p = 0.0075) between groups B and C. CONCLUSIONS PBT gave favorable outcomes in multimodal treatment for resectable locally advanced NPSCC, including surgery followed by postoperative PBT and radical PBT with concurrent chemotherapy. The prognosis for unresectable NPSCC was extremely poor, and reconsideration of treatment strategies, such as more active use of induction chemotherapy, may improve outcomes.

Abstract
(1) Background: In this work, we aim to provide selection criteria based on normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models and additional explanatory dose-volume histogram parameters suitable for identifying locally advanced sinonasal cancer patients with orbital invasion benefitting from proton therapy. (2) Methods: Twenty-two patients were enrolled, and two advanced radiation techniques were compared: intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) and photon volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). Plans were optimized with a simultaneous integrated boost modality: 70 and 56 Gy(RBE) in 35 fractions were prescribed to the high risk/low risk CTV. Several endpoints were investigated, classified for their severity and used as discriminating paradigms. In particular, when NTCP models were already available, a first selection criterion based on the delta-NTCP was adopted. Additionally, an overall analysis in terms of DVH parameters was performed. Furthermore, a second selection criterion based on a weighted sum of the ΔNTCP and ΔDVH was adopted. (3) Results: Four patients out of 22 (18.2%) were suitable for IMPT due to ΔNTCP > 3% for at least one severe toxicity, 4 (18.2%) due to ΔNTCP > 20% for at least three concurrent intermediate toxicities and 16 (72.7%) due to the mixed sum of ΔNTCP and ΔDVH criterion. Since, for some cases, both criteria were contemporary fulfilled, globally 17/22 patients (77.3%) would benefit from IMPT. (4) Conclusions: For this rare clinical scenario, the use of a strategy including DVH parameters and NTCPs when comparing VMAT and IMPT is feasible. We showed that patients affected by sinonasal cancer could profit from IMPT compared to VMAT in terms of optical and central nervous system organs at risk sparing.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sinonasal malignancy is a rare and heterogenous disease, with limited evidence to guide management. This report summarises the findings of a UK survey and expert workshop discussion which took place to inform design of a proposed UK trial to assess proton beam therapy versus intensity-modulated radiation therapy. METHOD A multidisciplinary working group constructed an online survey to assess current approaches within the UK to surgical and non-surgical practice. Head and neck clinical oncologists, ear nose and throat (ENT) and oral-maxillofacial (OMF) surgeons were invited to participate in the 42-question survey in September 2020. The Royal College of Radiologists Consensus model was adopted in establishing categories to indicate strength of response. An expert panel conducted a virtual workshop in November 2020 to discuss areas of disagreement. RESULTS A survey was sent to 140 UK-based clinicians with 63 responses (45% response rate) from 30 centres, representing a broad geographical spread. Participants comprised 35 clinical oncologists (56%) and 29 surgeons (44%; 20 ENT and 9 OMF surgeons). There were variations in preferred sequence and combination of treatment modalities for locally advanced maxillary squamous cell carcinoma and sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma. There was discordant surgical management of the orbit, dura, and neck. There was lack of consensus for radiotherapy in post-operative dose fractionation, target volume delineation, use of multiple dose levels and treatment planning approach to organs-at-risk. CONCLUSION There was wide variation across UK centres in the management of sinonasal carcinomas. There is need to standardise UK practice and develop an evidence base for treatment.

Abstract
Simple Summary Sinonasal cancers are rare and heterogeneous tumors, mainly carcinomas, with essentially local evolution and a severe vital and functional prognosis. These tumors are more and more being treated in first intent by a mini-morbid endoscopic approach rather than open surgery as the cornerstone of curative treatment. Adjuvant radiotherapy remains necessary owing to non-optimal local control. This article describes the requirements of radiotherapy to ensure adequate delays, the potential of postoperative radiotherapy to increase local and distant disease control and to decrease morbidity further after mini morbid surgery and dose painting techniques, and reviews the criteria that lead to the choice of one technique over another. Abstract Radiotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of sinonasal cancer, mainly in the adjuvant setting after surgical resection. Many technological approaches have been described, including intensity-modulated radiotherapy, concomitant chemoradiotherapy, charged particle therapy or combined approaches. The choice is based on general criteria related to the oncological results and morbidity of each technique and their availability, as well as specific criteria related to the tumor (tumor extensions, pathology and quality of margins). The aims of this review are: (i) to provide an overview of the radiotherapy techniques available for the management of sinonasal malignant tumors and (ii) to describe the constraints and opportunities of radiotherapy owing to the recent developments of endonasal endoscopic surgery. The indication and morbidity of the different techniques will be discussed based on a critical literature review.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review overall survival (OS), recurrence patterns, and prognostic factors of de novo sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (DN-SCC). DATA SOURCES PubMed, Scopus, OVID Medline, and Cochrane databases from 2006 to December 23, 2020. REVIEW METHODS The study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. Articles were required to report either recurrence patterns or survival outcomes of adults with DN-SCC. Case reports, books, reviews, meta-analyses, and database studies were all excluded. RESULTS Forty-one studies reported on survival or recurrence outcomes. The aggregate 5-year OS was 54.5% (range, 18%-75%) from 35 studies (n = 1903). Patients undergoing open surgery were more likely to receive radiation therapy and present at an advanced stage compared to those receiving endoscopic surgery (all P < .001). Advanced T stage, presence of cervical nodal metastases, maxillary sinus primary site, and negative human papillomavirus (HPV) status were all correlated with significantly worse 5-year OS. Direct meta-analysis of 8 studies demonstrated patients with surgery were more likely to be alive at 5 years compared to those who did not receive surgery (odds ratio, 2.26; 95% CI, 1.48-3.47; P < .001). Recurrence was reported in 628 of 1471 patients from 26 studies (42.7%) with an aggregate 5-year locoregional control rate of 67.1% (range, 50.4%-93.3%). CONCLUSION This systematic review and meta-analysis suggests that the 5-year OS rate for DN-SCC may approach 54.5% and recurrence rate approaches 42.7%. In addition, various tumor characteristics including advanced T stage, positive nodal status, maxillary sinus origin, and negative HPV status are all associated with decreased survival.

Abstract
AIMS Sinonasal malignancies are rare; the most common histological subtype is squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). No randomised trial data exist to guide treatment decisions, with options including surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The role and sequence of a primary non-surgical approach in this disease remains uncertain. The aim of this study was to present treatment outcomes for a multicentre population of patients with locally advanced, stage IVa/b sinonasal SCC treated with radical-intent intensity-modulated radiotherapy, either definitively or postoperatively. MATERIALS AND METHODS Consecutively treated patients with locally advanced, stage IVa/b sinonasal SCC at four UK oncology centres between January 2012 and December 2017 were retrospectively identified. Descriptive statistics and survival analyses were carried out. Univariable Cox regression analysis was carried out to evaluate the relationship between patient, disease and treatment factors and survival outcomes. RESULTS In total, 56 patients with sinonasal SCC were included (70% maxillary sinus, 21% nasal cavity, 9% ethmoid/frontal sinus). Forty-one patients (73%) were treated by surgery/adjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy and 15 (27%) by definitive (chemo)radiotherapy. The median duration of follow-up was 3.8 years (interquartile range 2.0-4.7 years). Estimates for 5-year overall survival and progression-free survival were 30.2% and 24.2%, respectively. Local, regional and distant treatment failures were seen in 33%, 33% and 16% of patients, respectively. Univariable analysis revealed inferior progression-free survival for patients treated with neck dissection (hazard ratio 2.6, 95% confidence interval 1.2-6.1, P = 0.022) but no other significant association between the studied factors and survival outcomes. CONCLUSION We show poor survival outcomes and high rates of locoregional treatment failure for patients with locally advanced stage IVa/b sinonasal SCC. There is a need to investigate improved treatments for this group of patients.

Abstract
Simple Summary Sinonasal squamous cell carcinomas are a group of diverse tumors affecting the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. As a direct consequence of their rarity and heterogeneity, diagnosis is challenging, and treatment does not follow universally accepted protocols. Though surgery represents the mainstay of treatment, neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies have pivotal roles in improving outcomes of patients treated with curative intent. Indications to endoscopic surgery have been expanding over the last three decades, but a considerable number of patients affected by sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma still need open surgical procedures. Management of the neck in patients affected by sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma is controversial. Curative-intended treatment of recurrent and/or metastatic tumors, alongside palliation of uncurable cases, represent poorly explored aspects of this disease. Abstract Sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma is a rare tumor affecting the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. Several aspects of this disease, ranging from epidemiology to biology, pathology, diagnosis, staging, treatment, and post-treatment surveillance are controversial, and consensus on how to manage this sinonasal cancer is lacking. A narrative literature review was performed to summarize the current evidence and provide the reader with available data supporting the decision-making process in patients affected by sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma, alongside the authors’ personal opinion on the unsolved issues of this tumor. The review has highlighted several advances in molecular definition of epithelial cancers of the sinonasal tract. Surgery represents the pivot of treatment and is performed through an endoscopic transnasal approach whenever feasible. Open surgery is required for a large proportion of cases. Reconstruction of the defect follows principles of skull base and cranio-maxillo-facial reconstruction. Chemotherapy is given as neoadjuvant treatment or concomitantly to radiotherapy. Photon-based radiation therapy has a crucial role in the adjuvant setting. Particle therapy is providing promising results. Management of the neck should be planned based on the presence of clinically appreciable metastases, primary tumor extension, and need for recipient vessels. Biotherapy and immunotherapy are still underexplored therapeutical modalities.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of carbon ion radiation therapy (CIRT), proton radiation therapy (PRT), and photon‐based intensity‐modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in the treatment of sinonasal malignancies. We identified studies through systematic review and divided them into three cohorts (CIRT group/PRT group/IMRT group). Primary outcomes of interest were overall survival (OS) and local control (LC). We pooled the outcomes with meta‐analysis and compared the survival difference among groups using Chi2 (χ2) test. A representative sample of 2282 patients with sinonasal malignancies (911 in the CIRT group, 599 in the PRT group, and 772 in the IMRT group) from 44 observation studies (7 CIRT, 16 PRT, and 21 IMRT) was included. The pooled 3‐year OS, LC, distant metastasis–free survival, and progression‐free survival rates were 67.0%, 72.8%, 69.4%, and 52.8%, respectively. Through cross‐group analysis, the OS was significantly higher after CIRT (75.1%, 95% CI: 67.1%‐83.2%) than PRT (66.2%, 95% CI: 57.7%‐74.6%; χ2 = 13.374, P < .0001) or IMRT (63.8%, 95% CI: 55.3%‐72.3%; χ2 = 23.814, P < .0001). LC was significantly higher after CIRT (80.2%, 95% CI: 73.9%‐86.5%) than PRT (72.9%, 95% CI: 63.7%‐82.0%; χ2 = 8.955, P = .003) or IMRT (67.8%, 95% CI: 59.4%‐76.2%; χ2 = 30.955, P < .0001). However, no significant difference between PRT and IMRT for OS and LC was observed. CIRT appeared to provide better OS and LC for patients with malignancies of nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. A prospective randomized clinical trial is needed to confirm the superiority of CIRT in the treatment of sinonasal tumors.

Abstract
This study aimed to determine the maximum tolerance dose (MTD) and to estimate the recommended dose (RD) of concomitant S-1 with carbon-ion radiotherapy (RT) for sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Nine patients with sinonasal SCC received carbon-ion RT with escalating doses of S-1 according to phase I methods. Doses of 40, 60 and 80 mg/m2/day were administered twice daily in dose levels 1, 2 and 3, respectively, from days 1 to 14 and 22 to 35. Carbon-ion RT was administered at a dose of 70.4 Gy (relative biological effectiveness) in 32 fractions, 5 days a week. Two patients developed grade 3 acute dermatitis. However, none developed dose-limiting toxicities. Therefore, the MTD of S-1 could not be determined; the RD was estimated to be 80 mg/m2/day with concurrent carbon-ion RT. Partial response and stable disease were noted in 5 and 4 patients, respectively. The 2-year overall survival and local control rates were 56 and 74%, respectively. Overall, 2 patients developed ≥grade 3 late toxicities; among them, 1 patient developed grade 3 cataract and the other developed grade 4 cataract, optic nerve disorder and hearing impairment. To the best of our knowledge, this phase I study is the first clinical trial to evaluate concomitant S-1 with carbon-ion RT for sinonasal SCC. The MTD of S-1 could not be determined, and the RD was estimated to be 80 mg/m2/day. This study demonstrated a manageable safety profile for this combination. The observed outcomes may facilitate further evaluation of this novel therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sinonasal malignancies are rare but demanding due to complex anatomy, usually late diagnosis, and inconsistent therapy strategy based on multimodality approaches. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most common histology, with poorer prognosis. In the setting of orbital invasion, an orbital exenteration may be required. However, in case of primary rejection of disfiguring surgery or unresectable disease, proton beam therapy (PBT) should be largely considered, allowing for better sparing of neighboring critical structures and improved outcomes by dose escalation. CASE SUMMARY A 62-year-old male presented with a recurrent SCC in the nasal septum abutting frontal skull base and bilateral orbits at 7 mo after primary partial nasal amputation. Because of refusal of face-deforming surgery and considerable adverse effects of conventional radiotherapy, the patient underwent a PBT by hyperfractionated accelerated scheme, resulting in complete response and moderate toxicities. After 2 years, a nasal reconstruction was implemented with satisfactory appearance and recurrence-freedom to date. Another patient with an initially extended sinonasal SCC, invading right orbit and facial soft tissue, declined an orbital exenteration and was treated with a normofractionated PBT to the gross tumor and elective cervical lymphatics. The follow-up showed a continuous tumor remission with reasonable late toxicities, such as cataract and telangiectasia on the right. Despite T4a stage and disapproval of concurrent chemotherapy owing to individual choice, both patients still achieved outstanding treatment outcomes with PBT alone. CONCLUSION PBT enabled orbit preservation and excellent tumor control without severe adverse effects on both presented patients with locally advanced sinonasal SCC.

Abstract
Proton and ion beam therapy has been introduced in the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in the mid-1950s, when protons and helium ions have been used for the first time to treat patients. Starting in 1972, the scientists at Berkeley also were the first to use heavier ions (carbon, oxygen, neon, silicon and argon ions). The first clinical ion beam facility opened in 1994 in Japan and since then, the interest in radiotherapy with light ion beams has been increasing slowly but steadily, with 13 centers in clinical operation in 2019. All these centers are using carbon ions for clinical application.The article outlines the differences in physical properties of various light ions as compared to protons in view of the application in radiotherapy. These include the energy loss and depth dose properties, multiple scattering, range straggling and nuclear fragmentation. In addition, the paper discusses differences arising from energy loss and linear energy transfer with respect to their biological effects.Moreover, the paper reviews briefly the existing clinical data comparing protons and ions and outlines the future perspectives for the clinical use of ions like oxygen and helium.

Abstract
Purpose To report the outcomes of sinonasal tumors treated with proton beam therapy (PBT) on the Proton Collaborative Group registry study. Methods and Materials Sixty-nine patients with sinonasal tumors underwent curative intent PBT between 2010 and 2016. Patients who received de novo irradiation (42 patients) were analyzed separately from those who received reirradiation (27 patients) (re-RT). Median age was 53.1 years (range, 15.7-82.1; de novo) and 57.4 years (range, 31.3-88.0; re-RT). The most common histology was squamous cell carcinoma in both groups. Median PBT dose was 58.5 Gy (RBE) (range, 12-78.3; de novo) and 60.0 Gy (RBE) (range 18.2-72.3; re-RT), and median dose per fraction was 2.0 Gy (RBE) for both cohorts. Survival estimates for patients who received de novo irradiation and those who received re-RT were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results Median follow-up for surviving patients was 26.4 months (range, 3.5-220.5). The 3-year overall survival (OS), freedom from distant metastasis, freedom from disease progression, and freedom from locoregional recurrence (FFLR) for de novo irradiation were 100%, 84.0%, 77.3%, and 92.9%, respectively. With re-RT, the 3-year OS, freedom from distant metastasis, FFDP, and FFLR were 76.2%, 47.4%, 32.1%, and 33.8%, respectively. In addition, 12 patients (17.4%) experienced recurrent disease. Re-RT was associated with inferior FFLR (P = .04). On univariate analysis, squamous cell carcinoma was associated with inferior OS (P < .01) for patients receiving re-RT. There were 11 patients with acute grade 3 toxicities. Late toxicities occurred in 15% of patients, with no grade ≥3 toxicities. No patients developed vision loss or symptomatic brain necrosis. Conclusions As one of the largest studies of sinonasal tumors treated with PBT, our findings suggest that PBT may be a safe and efficacious treatment option for patients with sinonasal tumors.
