Palifermin in Lessening Oral Mucositis in Patients Undergoing Radiation Therapy and Chemotherapy for Locally Advanced Head and Neck Cancer

28. November 2017 aktualisiert von: Radiation Therapy Oncology Group

A Randomized, Phase III, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Palifermin (NSC# 740548; IND # 6370) for the Reduction of Oral Mucositis in Patients With Locally Advanced Head and Neck Cancer Receiving Radiation Therapy With Concurrent Chemotherapy (Followed by Surgery for Selected Patients)

RATIONALE: Growth factors, such as palifermin, may lessen the severity of mucositis, or mouth sores, in patients receiving radiation therapy and chemotherapy for head and neck cancer. It is not yet known whether palifermin is more effective than a placebo in lessening mucositis in patients receiving radiation therapy and chemotherapy for head and neck cancer.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying palifermin to see how well it works compared to a placebo in lessening oral mucositis in patients undergoing radiation therapy and chemotherapy for locally advanced head and neck cancer.

Detaillierte Beschreibung

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Compare the efficacy of palifermin vs placebo, in terms of burden of acute mucositis (defined to be 105 days [15 weeks] or less from the start of treatment), in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, or larynx undergoing concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

Secondary

  • Compare incidence and time to onset of Grades 3 or 4 oral mucositis in patients treated with these regimens.
  • Compare overall and progression-free survival and time to second primary in patients treated with these regimens.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to disease stage (III vs IVA or IVB), tumor site (oral cavity or oropharynx vs hypopharynx or larynx), and radiotherapy technique used on study (intensity-modulated radiotherapy [IMRT] vs 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy [3D-CRT]). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

Mucositis, pain, and symptom burden are assessed at baseline, during radiotherapy, and post radiotherapy. Xerostomia is assessed at baseline, during radiotherapy, and several times after completion of study therapy.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed periodically for 10 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 298 patients will be accrued for this study.

Waffen und Interventionen

Teilnehmergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandlung
Experimental: Palifermin
Concurrent radiation therapy, cisplatin, and palifermin followed by neck dissection for indicated patients.
Four doses of palifermin, 180ųg/kg, administered as an i.v. bolus injection over 30-60 seconds. Starting on day -3 (Friday) prior to radiation therapy / chemotherapy and then once weekly, on days 5, 12, and 19.
Patients will receive cisplatin (100 mg/m2) administered intravenously on days 1, 22, and 43 of the treatment course.
A neck dissection is required for patients with persistent nodal disease, any stage, if a palpable abnormality or worrisome radiographic abnormality persists in the neck 8-9 weeks after completion of therapy. A neck dissection is optional for patients with multiple positive lymph nodes or with lymph nodes exceeding 3 cm in diameter at pre-treatment (N2a, N2b, N3) who achieve a complete clinical and radiographic response in the neck. All patients will be assessed at approximately 8 weeks post-treatment with CT scan or MRI by the same technique used at baseline.
A radiation dose of 70 Gy with at least 66 Gy to at least 2 mucosal sites of the oral cavity/oropharynx mucosa. Radiation therapy can be given with 3D conformal (3D-CRT) or with intensity modulated RT (IMRT) techniques; however, the chosen modality must be used for the entire course of treatment.

Duration of Oral Mucositis as Measured in Terms of Days
Zeitfenster: Twice-weekly from start of treatment up to 15 weeks after the start of treatment.

Duration in days of World Heath Organization (WHO) Grades 3 and 4 oral mucositis during the acute period (defined to be 105 days [15 weeks] or less from the start of treatment); duration is calculated from the onset of a Grade 3 or 4 oral mucositis to the day when an oral mucositis of ≤ Grade 2 is reported after the last oral mucositis of Grade 3 or 4. Patients with grade 0-2 mucositis have a duration of 0.

This study required 298 patients to detect via two-sided t-test a reduction of mean duration of at least 9 days from 29 days (standard deviation = 23 days) on the placebo arm with 90% power and alpha = 0.05.

Statistical testing was not done due to the small sample size.

Twice-weekly from start of treatment up to 15 weeks after the start of treatment.

Overall Survival
Zeitfenster: From randomization to maximum follow-up at time of analysis of 21 months
An event is death from any cause. Overall survival was not calculated due to the limited number of events. Number of patients with an event is reported.
From randomization to maximum follow-up at time of analysis of 21 months
Progression-free Survival
Zeitfenster: From randomization to maximum follow-up at time of analysis of 21 months
An event is defined as the first occurrence of local, regional, distant disease.

Progression-free survival was not calculated due to the limited number of events. Number of patients with an event is reported.
From randomization to maximum follow-up at time of analysis of 21 months
Time to Second Primary Tumor
Zeitfenster: From randomization to maximum follow-up at time of analysis of 21 months
An event is occurrence of a second primary other than basal cell. Time to second primary tumor was not calculated because there were no events. Number of patients with an event is reported.
