Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the cumulative incidence of local/regional failure at 2 years after study registration.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To characterize the rate of acute grade 3 or higher functional mucosal adverse events (up to 1 month post-radiation therapy [XRT]) associated with adjuvant docetaxel + hyperfractionated radiotherapy (key secondary endpoint).
II. To assess changes in overall survival, disease-free survival, distant failure rates, and quality of life (QOL) associated with adjuvant docetaxel and hyperfractionated radiation.
III. To characterize other acute adverse events (up to 1 month post-XRT) and late grade 3 or higher non-hematologic adverse events (up to 2 years post-XRT) associated with adjuvant docetaxel + hyperfractionated radiotherapy.
TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the genetic alterations of oropharynx tumor specimens and the detection rate of corresponding cell-free deoxyribonucleic acid (cfDNA) in the pre-surgical, post-surgical, and post-radiation blood of oropharynx cancer patients.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive docetaxel intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on days 1 and 8 and undergo hyperfractionated intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) twice daily (BID) 5 days a week on days 1-12 for a total of 20 fractions.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 14 days, 1 month, every 3 months for 2 years, every 6 months for 1 year and then annually for 2 years.

Change From Mean Baseline Score to Mean Score at 12 Months Post-RT in Swallow Function as Measured by the Pharyngeal Total Modified Barium Swallow Impairment Profile.
Time Frame: 12 months
|
The swallow evaluation consists of a modified barium swallow study(MBS), Functional Oral Intake Scale(FOIS), and Performance Status Scale Head & Neck(PSS-HN).The 17 swallow questions are rated using a 0 to 5 point scale, with 0 meaning no impairment and 5 max impairment.
6 questions produce a total oral score; scores from 10 questions produce a total pharyngeal score; 1 question produces an esophageal score.The PAS is a validated 8-point scale that ranks the depth of the bolus entry into the airway.A score of 1 indicates no airway entrance;score of 6+ indicate bolus passage past the vocal folds (aspiration).FOIS ranges from 1(nothing by mouth) to 7(total oral diet with no restrictions).PSS-H&N has 3 components:eating in public(0=always eat alone to 100=no restriction), understandability of speech(0=never understandable, score 100=always understandable), and normalcy of diet(score 0=tube fed to 100=full diet).These scores are summed and normalized to a 0 to 100 scale where 100 is best.

Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy Head and Neck (FACT H& N) (Version 4)
Time Frame: 1 year
|
The FACT-H&N is a multidimensional, self-report QOL instrument specifically designed for use with head and neck cancer patients.
It consists of 27 core items which assess patient function in four domains: Physical, Social/Family, Emotional, and Functional well-being, in addition to 12 site specific items to assess for head and neck related symptoms.
Each item is rated on a 0 to 4 type scale where 4 is favorable and 0 unfavorable, and then combined to produce subscale scores for each domain, as well as a global QOL score- with possible score range from 0 to 156.
Higher scores represent better QOL.

European Organization for Research and Treatment for Cancer QOL Questionnaire for Head and Neck Cancer Module 35 (EORTC-QLQ HN35)
Time Frame: 1 year post-treatment
|
QOL was measured by the European Organization for Research and Treatment for Cancer QOL Questionnaire for Head and Neck Cancer Module 35 (EORTC-QLQ HN35) at baseline and at 1-year post-treatment.
Each question scores 0-4, with 0 being favorable and 4 being unfavorable.
The average total score at baseline and average total score at 12 months post-RT is reported.
The max total score possible is 140(Unfavorable) and the minimum total score possible is 0(Favorable).
An increase in score indicates a greater quality of life A paired t-test compares the scores at these two timepoints.
|
1 year post-treatment
|
EuroQol Five-dimensional Instrument (EQ-5D-3L)
Time Frame: 1 year post-treatment
|
QOL was measured by the three-level version of the EuroQol five-dimensional instrument (EQ-5D-3L) at baseline and 1-year post-treatment.
This consisted of 5 questions, each score 0 to 3 points with 3 being unfavorable and 0 being favorable.
The total possible score per patient per time point is 15 and a minimum score of 0(favorable).
The change in average total score at baseline and 12 months post-RT is reported.
A paired t-test compares the scores at these two time points.
A higher score indicates greater impairment.
