H&N E07: Foundations VI — Systemic Therapy With RT: Cisplatin, Cetuximab, and Alternatives
This is Episode 7: Foundations VI — Systemic Therapy With RT: Cisplatin, Cetuximab, and Alternatives.We’ve built the scaffolding: anatomy, staging, and fractionation. Now we add the lever that most reliably increases cure rates in locally advanced head and neck cancer: concurrent systemic therapy.And here’s the board-relevant truth: examiners don’t just test whether you know that “chemo helps.” They test whether you know **who** should get it, **which** regimen is the standard, **when** cisplatin is unsafe, and **why** cetuximab is not a “gentler substitute” in HPV-positive oropharynx.
