From randomization to last follow-up. Analysis was to occur after 180 deaths were reported. Analysis occurred after 133 deaths were reported. Maximum follow-up at time of analysis was 6.5 years.

What was measured

Early death is defined as death due to adverse event or within 30 days of treatment completion.

Analysis population: Eligible patients who started study treatment

Groups in this outcome

IMRT + Cisplatin

Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with concurrent cisplatin Cisplatin: 100 mg/m2 IV on days 1 and 22 of IMRT IMRT: 35 fractions over 6 weeks, 6 fractions per week, 2 Gray per fraction to total dose of 70 Gy.

IMRT + Cetuximab

Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with concurrent cetuximab Cetuximab: 400 mg/m2 IV 5-7 days before IMRT then 250 mg/m2 IV weekly for 7 weeks IMRT: 35 fractions over 6 weeks, 6 fractions per week, 2 Gray per fraction to total dose of 70 Gy.
