•Despite improvement in recent years, adherence rates remain suboptimal, around 75%•Adherence to NCCN guidelines is associated with improved survival, regardless of treatment modality.•Different non-adherence causes result in reduced overall survival compared with adherent patients. Understanding the prevalence of guideline non-adherence among patients with advanced head and neck cancer (HNC) and its impact on survival may facilitate increased adherence. Our objective was to perform a detailed analysis of overall National Comprehensive Care Network (NCCN) guideline adherence in a national cohort. Using the National Cancer Database, we analyzed site-specific NCCN guideline adherence for treatment of 100,074 overall stage III and IVA HNC patients from 2004 to 2013. Main outcomes were guideline adherence rates and overall survival (OS). Adherence was categorized by treatment: surgery/ radiation. Reasons were categorized as: (1) high risk; (2) refusal; (3) not planned. After exclusion, the care of 25,620 patients was defined as non-adherent (25.6%), yet adherence rates significantly improved across the study’s years. After multivariate analysis, non-adherence was associated with age ≥ 65, female gender, black race, comorbidity score ≥ 1, insurance status, clinical staging, primary site, and facility type. Patients not managed according to NCCN guidelines had a significantly reduced OS compared with patients treated on-guideline (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.51 (95 %CI 1.48–1.54), p < 0.001). ‘Not planned’ patients had reduced OS when compared to adherent patients (HR = 1.27 (95 %CI 1.23–1.30), p < 0.001). Off-guideline treated patients due to ‘risk factors’ had a decrease in overall survival (OS) compared with other reasons (p < 0.001 for all). Despite improvement over time, non-adherence to NCCN guidelines for advanced stage HNC remains high. Non-adherence is associated with decreased OS, regardless of the reason. Despite concerns from both patient and physician, efforts should be made to increase guideline awareness and adherence.
