Abstract

Background: Preclinical and clinical evidence implies that destructive therapies in local and malignant tissue are frequently used on patients with head and neck cancer. Consequently, the microbiome of the treated and adjacent regions is affected. Disruption of the normal microbiome plays an important role not only in the disease progression but also in its emergence, therefore new therapies involving probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics have been developed to control or regulate this microbial disruption.

Objective: This review aims to describe the current and potential uses of probiotics at different stages of development of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, as an adjuvant therapy to prevent common complications such as radiation-induced oral mucositis (RIOM) and its role in other areas.

Methods: Currently, there is no widely effective strategy to treat or prevent this kind of cancer. Surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy are the three main treatments for head and neck cancer. Some therapies can also cause long-term health problems, or complications which might change the way you eat, talk, hear and breathe.

Results: The main uses for which probiotics have been studied are: Prevention and reduction of severity of RIOM, change in dental plaque to reduce dysbiosis, and reduction of complications in post-operated patients. Potential uses of probiotics include the reduction of disease initiation and progression by reducing local inflammation caused by bacteria and other organisms.

Conclusion: The incidence and severity of RIOM may be lessened by probiotics. To establish its uses in additional clinical settings, though, more studies are necessary.
