Trial Outcomes & Findings for Cetuximab and Radiation Therapy in Laryngeal Cancer Patients Who Have Responded to One Cycle of Chemotherapy (SPORE) (NCT NCT00599131)

NCT ID: NCT00599131

Last Updated: 2015-12-03

Results Overview

The proportion of patients treated with radiation+cetuximab achieving histologic CR will be estimated, along with 95% exact confidence intervals. Histologic Complete Response (CR) will be defined as primary tumors exhibiting a clinical CR or at least a 90% PR (Partial Response) along with a negative post-treatment biopsy.

Measure
Chemotherapy/Radiation/Surgery
Patients will undergo induction chemotherapy with (TPF): Docetaxel (Taxotere) 75 mg/m2 and cisplatin 100 mg/m2 on day 1, and 5-FU 750 mg/m2 days 1-4. On day 20 patients will receive a single dose of cetuximab (C-225) 400 mg/m2. Depending upon disease response, patients will undergo salvage laryngectomy followed by radiation therapy and chemotherapy.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 3 years

Population: The study was discontinued prematurely due to an early stopping rule. No participants were assessed for the primary outcome because an insufficient number of patients were recruited.

The proportion of patients treated with radiation+cetuximab achieving histologic CR will be estimated, along with 95% exact confidence intervals. Histologic Complete Response (CR) will be defined as primary tumors exhibiting a clinical CR or at least a 90% PR (Partial Response) along with a negative post-treatment biopsy.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 23

Population: The study was discontinued prematurely due to an early stopping rule. No participants were assessed because an insufficient number of patients were recruited.

To determine tumor EGFR degradation, as well as other markers of down-stream EGFR inhibition, observed in tumor biopsies taken shortly after the administration of cetuximab following TPF, compared with pre-treatment biopsies.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 24 months

Population: The study was discontinued prematurely due to an early stopping rule. No participants were assessed because an insufficient number of patients were recruited.

To evaluate the quality of life (QOL).
