Objectives  To report on overall survival (OS), local control (LC), dose-outcome relationships, and related toxicities following stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for locally recurrent, previously irradiated squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (rSCCHN).  Methods  We queried the prospectively-maintained RSSearch® Registry for patients with rSCCHN treated with five-fraction SBRT from January 2008 to November 2016. Patients with non-squamous cell histology, missing registry data regarding prior irradiation, those treated with less than five fractions of SBRT, and those treated with SBRT in primary or boost settings were excluded. LC and OS were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method with comparisons between groups completed using log-rank t-tests and multivariable Cox regression. Logistic regression analyses were used to examine factors predictive of toxicity.  Results  Forty-five rSCCHN patients treated with SBRT delivered in five fractions at 12 radiotherapy centers were identified. Prescription doses ≥ 40 Gy were associated with higher one-year rates of OS, LC, and a higher likelihood of experiencing toxicities. Acute and late toxicity rates were low (22.2% and 15.6%, respectively) and were all Grade 1-2 with only one late Grade 3 esophagitis.  Conclusion  Salvage SBRT for rSCCHN resulted in outcomes comparable to prior single-institutional reports in a multi-institutional cohort across clinical settings with low toxicity, thus supporting more widespread adoption of SBRT with recommended doses ≥ 40 Gy.
