Longitudinal changes in the carotid arteries of head and neck cancer patients following radiation therapy: Results from a prospective serial imaging biomarker characterization study

•Alterations in the functional and morphologic characteristics of the carotid arteries following exposure to radiation therapy (RT) include changes in global circumferential strain at 6 months and c-IMT at 18 months.•At 2 years following RT, one in 5 patients can develop new atherosclerotic plaques...

description •Alterations in the functional and morphologic characteristics of the carotid arteries following exposure to radiation therapy (RT) include changes in global circumferential strain at 6 months and c-IMT at 18 months.•At 2 years following RT, one in 5 patients can develop new atherosclerotic plaques in the irradiated carotid artery.•Changes in global circumferential strain at 6 months and c-IMT at 18 months, may be useful for the early detection of radiation-induced carotid artery injury and can guide future research aiming to mitigate carotid artery stenosis. We prospectively evaluated morphologic and functional changes in the carotid arteries of patients treated with unilateral neck radiation therapy (RT) for head and neck cancer. Bilateral carotid artery duplex studies were performed at 0, 3, 6, 12, 18 months and 2, 3, 4, and 5 years following RT. Intima media thickness (IMT); global and regional circumferential, as well as radial strain, arterial elasticity, stiffness, and distensibility were calculated. Thirty-eight patients were included. A significant difference in the IMT from baseline between irradiated and unirradiated carotid arteries was detected at 18 months (median, 0.073 mm vs −0.003 mm; P = 0.014), which increased at 3 and 4 years (0.128 mm vs 0.013 mm, P = 0.016, and 0.177 mm vs 0.023 mm, P = 0.0002, respectively). A significant transient change was noted in global circumferential strain between the irradiated and unirradiated arteries at 6 months (median difference, −0.89, P = 0.023), which did not persist. No significant differences were detected in the other measures of elasticity, stiffness, and distensibility. Functional and morphologic changes of the carotid arteries detected by carotid ultrasound, such as changes in global circumferential strain at 6 months and carotid IMT at 18 months, may be useful for the early detection of radiation-induced carotid artery injury, can guide future research aiming to mitigate carotid artery stenosis, and should be considered for clinical surveillance survivorship recommendations after head and neck RT.
