Maintenance Tegafur-uracil in Resected Oral Cavity Cancer With ECS+

February 10, 2019 updated by: Chang Gung Memorial Hospital

A Phase II Study of Maintenance Tegafur-uracil in Patients With Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Oral Cavity With Extracapsular Spreading of Lymph Nodes

Primary Objective:

To determine the 2-year distant failure rate of maintenance tegafur-uracil in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of oral cavity with extracapsular spreading of lymph nodes.

Secondary Objectives:

  • To determine the 2-year locoregional failure rate.
  • To evaluate the 2-year overall survival (OS) rate.
  • To evaluate the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate.
  • To assess the safety profiles.

Detailed Description

The primary endpoint will be 2-years distant failure rate which will be estimated by Kaplan-Meier method with two-sided 95% confidence interval.

The secondary endpoints are described as follows:

  • 2-year locoregional failure rate, 2-year PFS rate and 2-year OS rate will be estimated by Kaplan-Meier method with two-sided 95% confidence interval.
  • Safety profile: adverse events will be summarized by CTCAE. Safety parameters will only be analyzed on the safety analysis set and be presented in frequency tabulation.

Determination of sample size:

The estimated 2-year distant failure rate for squamous cell carcinoma of oral cavity with extracapsular spreading of lymph nodes is 26%. The 2-year distant failure rate of maintenance treatment with tegafur-uracil in this study is expected to be 13%. Using One Proportional Test with one-sided alpha 0.05 and power 80%, the sample size of 56 subjects will test an effect size of 13% (i.e. 26% vs.13%). With expected dropout rate of 20%, the sample size would be 68 subjects.

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Maintenance

Eligible patient will be given maintenance tegafur-uracil for one year.

Dose of tegafur-uracil will be based on patient's body surface area (BSA):

  • BSA < 1.5 m2: tegafur-uracil 300 mg/day (1 capsule three times a day)
  • BSA ≥ 1.5 m2: tegafur-uracil 400 mg/day (2 capsules twice a day) Tegafur-uracil will be started after patient has complete the adjuvant radiotherapy and been enrolled into the study.
