Abstract
Purpose/Objective: Amifostine reduces xerostomia in patients receiving head and neck radiotherapy (RT) but is associated with significant toxicity and cost. In this retrospective review we compared records of patients irradiated with and without amifostine for grades of acute xerostomia, mucositis, drug-related toxicity, as well as drug cost and disease outcomes.
