简要总结
This study evaluates the efficacy of the new docetaxel-cisplatin-cetuximab regimen (TPEx) versus the standard platinum-5FU-cetuximab EXTREME regimen as a first-line treatment in recurrent and/or metastatic HNSCC. Half of patients will be treated by TPEx regimen, while the other half will be treated by EXTREME regimen.
详细描述
The EXTREME regimen, i.e. cetuximab added to platinum (100 mg/m² every 3 weeks ) and 5FU (96h continuous infusion at 1000 mg/m²/day every 3 weeks) during 6 cycles of treatment and continued as maintenance in patients with stable disease, is currently the standard of care in first line recurrent metastatic HNSCC.
From our previous experience (phase II GORTEC "TPEx" study), the TPEx regimen of 4 cycles of docetaxel-cisplatin-cetuximab followed by maintenance with cetuximab every 2 weeks seems more efficient (overall survival) compared to EXTREME regiment. Docetaxel combined with cisplatine (each administered at 75mg/m² every 3 weeks) also appeared more convenient than the standard Cisplatin-5FU-Cetuximab EXTREME regimen (4 cycles of chemotherapy instead of 6 cycles and no i.v. continuous infusion). Toxicity was manageable with G-CSF support. In addition the toxicity / efficacy profile also seems favourable as suggested by the excellent dose intensity achieved and the high rate of patients (78%) who were able to start maintenance therapy.
Taking together all these considerations, the TPEx regimen might be a good substitute for EXTREME as first-line treatment in patients with recurrent metastatic HNSCC, and it is justified and necessary to perform a direct comparison in a randomized trial to further test this hypothesis.

研究组 & 干预措施
EXTREME: Cisplatin, 5-FU and Cetuximab
Chemotherapy: 6 cycles (every 3 weeks) of Cisplatin (100 mg/m² iv on Day1), 5FU (4000 mg/m² total dose starting on day 1 and during 96h in continuous infusion), and Cetuximab (loading dose of 400 mg/m² iv on Day1, then 250 mg/m² iv weekly).
If cisplatin is not tolerated and/or when the total cumulative dose of cisplatin (including prior administration) reaches 600 mg/m², cisplatin has to be replaced by carboplatin, AUC 5 (but not exceeding 750 mg), except in the case of bleeding tumor.
Cetuximab maintenance : cetuximab continuation (250 mg/m² iv weekly) will begin only if at least disease stabilization is observed at the end of chemotherapy, and will be continued until PD or unacceptable toxicity.
