Abstract
Our findings confirm that patients with 5 or more involved lymph nodes appear to have substantially worsened rates of disease recurrence. While these patients appear to be at high risk of both LRR and DM, the predominant mechanism of failure is distant, and the rate of DM in this group was over 50%. Dedicated clinical trials in this patient population are warranted with a focus on mitigating the high DM rate.
