Abstract:
:We compared concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with docetaxel, cisplatin (CDDP), and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) (TPF) with CCRT with CDDP, 5-FU, methotrexate and leucovorin (PFML) in patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) in terms of safety and efficacy on survival. A total of 100 patients were enrolled. The TPF group received CCRT with the TPF regimen [docetaxel (50 mg/m(2): day 1), CDDP (60 mg/m(2): day 4), and continuous 5-FU infusion (600 mg/m(2)/day: days 1-5)]. In the PFML group, patients received CCRT with the PFML regimen [CDDP (60 mg/m(2): day 4)], continuous 5-FU infusion (600 mg/m(2)/day: days 1-5), methotrexate (30 mg/m(2): day 1) and leucovorin (20 mg/m(2)/day: days 1-5)]. Both groups received 2 cycles of chemotherapy during definitive radiotherapy. The total radiation dose was between 66.6 and 70.2 Gray. The overall response rates after CCRT were 98 with 90% of a pathologically complete response (pCR) in the TPF group and 94 with 77% in the PFML group. For grade 3/4 adverse events, mucositis was more frequent in the PMFL group, and the TPF group showed a higher incidence of hematological toxicity. CCRT with TPF or PMFL for advanced SCCHN was tolerable and produced excellent survival rates.
