Official Title ICMJE | Randomized Phase III Trial to Compare Radiation Therapy Alone With Radiation Therapy and Concomitant Anti-EGFr Antibody (C225) for Locally Advanced Squamous Cell Carcinomas of the Head and Neck | |||
Brief Summary | RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies such as cetuximab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. It is not yet known if radiation therapy is more effective with or without cetuximab for cancer of the oropharynx, hypopharynx, or larynx. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of radiation therapy with or without cetuximab in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV cancer of the oropharynx, hypopharynx, or larynx. |

Detailed Description | OBJECTIVES:
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are stratified by Karnofsky performance status (60-80% vs 90-100%), nodal stage (N0 vs N+), tumor stage (T1-3 vs T4), and radiotherapy schedule (concurrent boost vs once daily vs twice daily). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms:
Patients with more than N1 neck disease at initial presentation undergo neck dissection 4-8 weeks after the completion of radiotherapy. Quality of life is assessed before initiation of study therapy, at 8 weeks, and then every 4 months for 1 year. Patients are followed at 8 weeks, every 4 months for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 3 years. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 416 patients (208 per arm) will be accrued for this study within approximately 5 years. |
