A Phase 2, Randomized Trial of Chemoradiation With or Without Panitumumab in Subjects With Unresected, Locally Advanced Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Cisplatin, Standard Fractionation Radiotherapy, and 1 other intervention for Head and Neck Cancer and Squamous Cell Carcinoma. Completed, enrolled 153 participants.
Detailed Summary
The addition of chemotherapy to radiotherapy (chemoradiation) has improved outcomes for patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck but additional improvements to treatment regimens are needed. The study is investigating if the addition of a targeted therapy (panitumumab) can improve the efficacy of chemoradiation without adding unmanageable toxicity.
