Its prognosis is poor, and current treatment references other cancers.

Most received intensity\u2010modulated radiotherapy with \u2265\u200966\u2009Gy. Median OS and PFS were 18.73 and 3\u2009months, respectively. Nasal cavity\/paranasal sinus primaries had the worst prognosis (median OS: 16.7\u2009months). Locally advanced cases had significantly better survival than recurrent\/metastatic disease (median OS: 30.43 vs. 13.93\u2009months; PFS: 5.83 vs. 2.3\u2009months). High\u2010dose radiotherapy (\u2265\u200966\u2009Gy) was associated with improved OS, and R0 resection combined with \u2265\u200966\u2009Gy achieved median OS of 27.9\u2009months. In surgical patients, GTV longest diameter &gt;\u20093.5\u2009cm independently predicted worse PFS (HR\u2009=\u20095.01,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.01). Recurrent\/metastatic status was the most critical independent adverse prognostic factor for both PFS (HR\u2009=\u20094.56) and OS (HR\u2009=\u200910.12). Adjuvant therapy after radiotherapy prolonged PFS, particularly in locally advanced patients. BETi\u2010based regimens before radiotherapy showed potential for improved locoregional and distant control in postoperative recurrence\/metastasis.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Prognosis in head and neck NUT carcinoma treated with radiotherapy is affected by disease status, primary site, radiotherapy dose, and adjuvant therapy.
