简要总结
The standard treatment for head and neck cancer relapses in previously irradiated patients is controversial. Reirradiation has had some success, but many patients still die from their disease. Cetuximab is helpful in relapsed head and neck cancer, and it improves the effectiveness of radiation in some head and neck cancer patients. But, it has not been studied with reirradiation. The purpose of this study is to see the effects, both good and bad, of reirradiation with cetuximab.

入选标准
- •Patients must have a pathologically confirmed recurrence (reappearance of previously cleared) squamous cell cancer in the upper aerodigestive tract or a second squamous cell primary. Patients may have experienced more than one recurrence as long as the first recurrence occurred ≥6 months following the end of the prior RT.
- •The recurrence or second primary must be confined to the head and neck above the clavicles (loco-regional recurrence).
- •The majority (≥75%) of the tumor volume must have been in areas previously irradiated to ≥45 Gy. The previous irradiation must not exceed a maximum of 75 Gy.
- •Patients must be at least 6 months from prior radiation therapy.
- •If a resection is performed after the diagnosis of recurrence and before enrollment, either microscopic or macroscopic disease must be present (i.e. positive margins or gross residual).
- •Karnofsky Performance Status 60-
- •Granulocytes ≥ 1500/mm3, platelets ≥ 100,000/mm3, bilirubin ≤ 1.5 mg/dl, creatinine ≤ 1.5 mg/dl, within 6 weeks prior to registration.
- •Must be able to submit previous radiation records (simulation and portal film if available) in order to assure that cord tolerance is not exceeded.
- •Patients must sign a study-specific informed consent form prior to study entry.
- •The patient must be between the ages of 18 and 75.
排除标准
- •Distant metastases.
- •Completely resected recurrence with negative margins.
- •Other concurrent invasive malignancies.
- •Prior invasive malignancy unless disease free for at least two years (prior in situ malignancies are permissible).
- •Intercurrent medical illnesses which would impair patient tolerance to therapy or limit survival.
- •Pregnant and nursing women are excluded because of the potential teratogenic effects and potential unknown effects on nursing newborns.
- •Previous treatment with cetuximab.
