Safety and Efficacy Study of Target Therapy Combined With Radiotherapy to Treat Senile Locally Advanced SCCHN

Phase 2
Conditions
SCCHN
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01393184
Lead Sponsor
Peking University
Brief Summary

Radiotherapy alone is generally the only treatment in old patients with SCCHN. No evidence indicates combination with EGFR Target therapy can bring benefit for the patients. Senile Society is coming in China, the mean age in Beijing reaches 80 years old. A valuable treatment with efficacy and safety is needed for senile patient with SCCHN. The purpose of the study "Prospective, Randomized, Controlled, Phase II Multiple Centered Clinical Trial of Nimotuzumab Combined with Radiotherapy for Senile Locally Advanced SCCHN" was sponsored to evaluate the efficacy and safety for Nimotuzumab Combined with Radiotherapy in Senile SCCHN patients.

Detailed Description

condition: Senile Locally Advanced SCCHN. Intervention: Drug:Nimotuzumab. Arm A: Radiotherapy+Nimotuzumab; Arm B: Radiotherapy alone. Phase: Phase 2
