IMRT Plus Cisplatin Versus Conventional Radiotherapy Plus Cisplatin in Stage III-IV HNSCC - Full Text View

Purpose

This is a multicentric randomized phase III trial comparing intensity-modulated radiotherapy (75 Gy) plus cisplatin versus conventional radiotherapy (70 Gy) plus cisplatin in patients with stage III-IV squamous cell carcinoma of oral cavity, oropharynx or hypopharynx. The main end points are the rate of locoregional control and the rate of xerostomia at 2 years.

Arms	Assigned Interventions
Active Comparator: 1 Conventional RT 70Gy + concomitant cisplatin	Procedure: Conventional radiotherapy 70 Gy 50 Gy in PTV1 and 20 Gy in PTV2 Drug: concomitant cisplatin 100 mg/m2 D1, D22, D43
Experimental: 2 IMRT 75Gy + concomitant cisplatin	Procedure: IMRT 75 Gy 50 Gy in PTV1 and 25 Gy in 10 fractions in PTV2 Drug: concomitant cisplatin 100 mg/m2 D1, D22, D43

Detailed Description:

This is a multicentric randomized phase III trial comparing intensity-modulated radiotherapy plus concomitant cisplatin versus conventional radiotherapy plus concomitant cisplatin in patients with stage III-IV squamous cell carcinoma of oral cavity, oropharynx or hypopharynx. The main end points are the rate of locoregional control and the rate of xerostomia at 2 years.

The IMRT total dose is 75 Gy (50 Gy to PTV1 and T0 + 25 Gy (10 fractions) to PTV2). The conventional radiotherapy total dose is 70 Gy (50 Gy to PTV1 + 20 Gy (10 fractions) to PTV2). In both arms, the cervical nodes will receive 50 Gy (65 Gy in case of Np) by conventional radiotherapy (IMRT is allowed in the IRMT arm). In the two arms, patients will receive concomitant cisplatin (100 mg/m² D1, D21, D42).
