Who can join
18 and older, any sex, with Hypopharyngeal Cancer. Patients with the condition only — healthy volunteers not accepted.
What's being measured
Primary outcomes are the specific endpoints the trial is designed to prove or disprove.
-
To determine whether addition of neoadjuvant chemotherapy before definite CCRT increase progression-free survival(PFS) compared with CCRT only
Time frame: 18 months after the enrollment of the last patients
Sponsor's own description
The investigators will examine whether 2-cycles of DFP chemotherapy before definitive concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CCRT) can improve progression-free survival in locally advanced (Stage III \& IVM0) hypopharyngeal and base of tongue carcinoma compared to definitive CCRT alone.
