Nimotuzumab plus RT and temozolomide.

Nimotuzumab, administered once a week intravenously in addition to radiotherapy with concomitant and adjuvant temozolomide (TMZ) after surgery.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Nimotuzumab

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Nimotuzumab, 200 mg as 1-hour intravenous infusion once weekly, from first week to last week of RT for a total of 6 times.

Temozolomide

Intervention Type DRUG

Temozolomide, 75 mg/m2/d was administered orally from the first to the last day of RT. After 4-week break, individualized adjuvant TMZ was given based on MGMT status. The standard 5-day schedule every 4 weeks for six cycles was given for patients with negative MGMT expression. Dose was 150mg/m2 for the first cycle and 200 mg/m2 from the second cycle. The 7-day on/7-day off schedule every 2 weeks for 12 cycles was given for patients with positive MGMT expression. The dose was 100 mg/m2 for the first two cycles and 150 mg/m2 starting from the third cycle.

Radiotherapy

Intervention Type RADIATION

Fractionated 3D conformal RT was given at 2.0Gy per fraction, 5 daily fractions per week for 6 weeks.
