Abstract EN
We evaluated the chemopreventive effect of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) use in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) by conducting a case-control study based on the administration of a standardized questionnaire to 71 incident HNSCC cases and same number of healthy controls.
NSAID use was associated with a 75% reduction in risk of developing HNSCC.
A significant risk reduction was noted in association with frequency of NSAID use.
Restricting the analysis to aspirin users revealed a significant 90% reduction in risk of developing HNSCC.
This study provides evidence for a significant reduction in the risk of developing HNSCC in users of NSAIDs, and specifically aspirin users.
