Nasal cavity and paranasal sinus cancers (including esthesioneuroblastoma): lines of therapy

Cancer page →

3 standard-of-care settings across 3 lines and 1 biomarker subgroup. Rows come from the cancer page's standard of care; the grid places each on its line and subgroup.

LineAll comers
Early / localised1
Advanced, first line1
Other settings1

Early / localised

SubgroupSettingApproachProducts and trialsEvidence
All comersResectable squamous carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, esthesioneuroblastomaEndoscopic or cranioendoscopic resection with negative margins followed by IMRT or proton therapy for advanced stage, high grade or close margins; concurrent cisplatin for positive margins or nodal disease.91

Advanced, first line

SubgroupSettingApproachProducts and trialsEvidence
All comersUnresectable or metastaticPlatinum-based chemotherapy, and pembrolizumab or nivolumab per head and neck squamous indications for squamous histology; trials for IDH2-mutant SNUC (enasidenib) and SWI/SNF-deficient carcinoma.98

Other settings

SubgroupSettingApproachProducts and trialsEvidence
All comersSinonasal undifferentiated carcinomaInduction platinum-etoposide; responders proceed to definitive chemoradiotherapy, non-responders to surgery plus radiotherapy (response-adapted approach, JAMA Oncol 2019).91

Lines and subgroups are parsed from the setting text of each standard-of-care row and can misclassify an unusual phrasing; the row’s own setting is always shown. Guideline chips reflect the NCCN category and ESMO-MCBS grade recorded on the cancer page, checked on its stated date. Not medical advice.
