NCT00084318 · STUDY IN CONTEXT

Adjuvant Cetuximab and Chemoradiotherapy Using Either Cisplatin or Docetaxel in Treating Patients With Resected Stage III or Stage IV Squamous Cell Carcinoma or Lymphoepithelioma o

Draft scope assessment: narrower. Linked by condition-string match at the cancer-entity level. The study's eligibility - stage, biomarker, treatment line and prior therapy - has not been reconciled against this page's definition, so its population is narrower than this page in ways not yet recorded. Found by searching ClinicalTrials.gov for this cancer type, restricted to studies that have posted results to the registry. No FDA notice, FDA label or NCI summary held by this site cites this study. Because the search asked for posted results, studies without posted results were never looked for, so their absence from this page means nothing.

primary · POSTED

Two-year rates are shown (Kaplan-Meier estimates). Disease-free survival is defined as the time from randomization to local, regional, or distant progression, second primary, or death (event) or last follow-up (censored). Response criteria as follows: No evidence of disease (NED): All patients must have no measurable tumor following surgery; Local-Regional Relapse: Recurrent cancer in the tumor bed and/or neck not clearly attributable to a second primary neoplasm; biopsy confirmation is necessary; Distant Relapse: Clear evidence of distant metastases (lung, bone, brain, etc.); Biopsy is recommended where possible. A solitary lung mass/nodule is considered a second primary neoplasm unless proven otherwise.

secondary · POSTED

Tolerability was defined as having received 90% of the radiation dose, 95% of the cetuximab loading dose, and at least 4 weeks of cetuximab and cisplatin or docetaxel at doses 95% of the protocol prescription. The percentage of patients determined to be tolerant of treatment are shown.

secondary · POSTED

Each regimen was monitored for excessive acute toxicity (defined as nonhematologic grade 4 toxicity within 90 days of the start of radiation or any grade 5 toxicity). The target rate was based on the observed rate from RTOG-9501/NCT00002670 of 15%. The unacceptable rate was \>30%. \[RTOG = Radiation Therapy Oncology Group\]

secondary · POSTED

Maximum grade toxicity that is definitely, probably, or possibly related to protocol treatment.

Eligible patients who started protocol treatment and did not withdraw consent

secondary · POSTED

Two-year rate is shown (cumulative incidence estimate). Local-regional failure is defined as the time from randomization to local-regional recurrence (event), death (competing risk), or last follow-up (censored).
