DAHANCA 28A: Phase I/II Study on Accelerated, Hyperfractionated Radiotherapy With Concomitant Cisplatin and Nimorazole

July 26, 2017 updated by: Danish Head and Neck Cancer Group

Phase I/II Study on Accelerated, Hyperfractionated Radiotherapy With Concomitant Cisplatin and Nimorazole for Patients With Stage III-IV p16 Negative Squamous Cell Cancer (SCC) of the Larynx, Pharynx and Oral Cavity

P16 negative cancers continue to have a dismal prognosis despite advances in the treatment of head and neck cancer. Acceleration, dose-escalation, hyperfractionation, chemotherapy and nimorazole has been shown to improve local control. The purpose of the study i to investigate the level of co-morbidity and performance status (PS) that allows the combination of all of the above means of treatment intensification
