Résumé
A previous randomized trial in recurrent Head and Neck squamous-cell carcinoma (HNSCC) has shown re-irradiation combined with chemotherapy after salvage surgery significantly improved disease-free survival (DFS). The objective of this randomized trial was to compare two methods of re-irradiation in terms of toxicity and survival.
Patients with recurrence/second primary in previously irradiated area were randomly allocated to receive either 60 Gy over 11 weeks with concomitant 5FU - hydroxyurea (VP-arm), or 60 Gy (1.2 Gy twice daily) over 5 weeks with cetuximab (HFR-arm). Primary endpoint was treatment interruption >15 days (acute toxicity).
Twenty-six patients were included in VP-arm and 27 in HFR-arm. One patient in VP-arm experienced >15 days interruption due to toxicity, and none in HFR-arm. In both arms, all patients received at least 60 Gy. In VP-arm, 8/26 patients had chemotherapy delay and/or dose reduction. In HFR-arm, 4/27 patients had <6 cycles cetuximab. There was no significant difference in overall survival (Median OS: 37.4 months vs 21.9 months, p = 0.12). Toxicities and DFS were not different between 2 arms.
Twice daily schedule of re-irradiation of 60 Gy/5 weeks with cetuximab was tolerable and no significant difference in treatment delays occurred between two arms.
