Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate in patients with cancer of the throat and recurrent inoperable a different modality treatment consisting of radiation continuously for 5 weeks and half associated with a drug directed against a receptor on cell surfaces cancer, called Erbitux ®.

The investigators hope with this shorter treatment (1.5 weeks less than the usual treatment) to improve the antitumor efficacy without additional toxic side effects.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

We hope with this treatment improved antitumor efficacy without additional toxic side effects, while being shorter than 1.5 weeks of standard therapy. But this is an hypothesis we can not meet the current state of knowledge, which justifies this study.

The main hypothesis is that this combination of reirradiation and Cetuximab give a relative gain of 15% complete response rate.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Other: Erbitux Radiotherapy

Radiotherapy during 5 weeks and concurrent Erbitux once a week.

Drug: Erbitux
To begin 7 days before radiotherapy, loading dose 400 mg / m² in the first week then 250 mg / m² weekly for the duration of radiotherapy (for a total of 7 doses including the loading dose)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The main objective is to evaluate the complete response rate of the association re-irradiation - Erbitux ®. [It will be measured by spiral CT scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), 2 months after the end of treatment]
