简要总结
The purpose of this trial is to compare two different treatments for fit patients with head and neck cancer:
All patients are given induction-chemotherapy (docetaxel, cisplatin, 5-FU).
Subsequently patients are being randomised into two groups:
- The first group receives neo-adjuvant chemotherapy ('high' dose cisplatin) and conventional radiotherapy
- The second group receives neo-adjuvant chemotherapy ('low' dose cisplatin) and accelerated radiotherapy.
详细描述
Induction Chemotherapy TPF(arm A and B)
: Docetaxel 75 mg/m2 iv on day 1, Cisplatin 75 mg/ m2 iv on day 1, 5-FU 750 mg/ m2/day iv continuous infusion (in Hickman or port a cath) on days 1-5; prophylactic G-CSF
This cycle will be repeated every 21 days for a maximum of 4 cycles. Clinical evaluation after each cycle and radiological evaluation after 2 cycles will take place. In case of PD or SD (after 2 cycles) with no minor response (no decrease in measurable disease from baseline) concomitant chemoradiotherapy will started per protocol.
Surgery The investigators in each centre can decide neck surgery for residual tumor
