Impacted Tooth Management and Osteoradionecrosis Risk in NPC

10 agosto 2026 aggiornato da: min kang, First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University

Omission of Prophylactic Impacted Tooth Extraction and Risk of Jaw Osteoradionecrosis in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: A Multicenter, Noninferiority, Open-Label, Randomized Controlled Trial

This multicenter, randomized controlled trial is designed to determine whether omitting prophylactic extraction of impacted teeth before radiotherapy leads to an unacceptably higher risk of jaw osteoradionecrosis (JORN) compared with conventional prophylactic extraction in patients with non-metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). JORN is a condition in which jawbone tissue is damaged and fails to heal properly after radiotherapy.

A total of 536 eligible participants with at least one impacted tooth will be randomly assigned to either omit prophylactic extraction of impacted teeth before radiotherapy or undergo conventional prophylactic extraction before radiotherapy. All participants will receive standard curative-intent intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), with chemotherapy administered when indicated according to the study protocol.

Participants will be followed for up to 5 years. The primary outcome is the incidence of JORN within 2 years after completion of radiotherapy. Secondary outcomes include longer-term incidence of JORN, overall survival, locoregional relapse-free survival, distant metastasis-free survival, quality of life, and treatment-related toxicities.

Descrizione dettagliata

Prophylactic extraction of impacted teeth before radiotherapy is performed to reduce the potential risk of dental complications and jaw osteoradionecrosis after treatment. However, whether prophylactic extraction is necessary for impacted teeth without indications for therapeutic extraction remains uncertain.

This study is designed to evaluate whether omission of prophylactic impacted tooth extraction is noninferior to conventional prophylactic extraction with respect to the risk of jaw osteoradionecrosis in patients with non-metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma undergoing curative-intent radiotherapy. The study will also assess the long-term clinical outcomes and safety of this tooth-management strategy.
