About this study

Official title: Postoperative Radiotherapy According to Molecular Analysis of Surgical Margins of Early Stages Oral and Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinomas: A Prospective Study

There is no consensus on the indication of postoperative radiotherapy for early stages oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma with complete pathological resection and no neck node metastasis, but most of the institutions do not give any post-operative treatment. Loco-regional control rates range between 80-85% at five years. Surgical margins molecular analysis for microsatellite instability (MSI) marker could help to select the high-risk patients who should receive postoperative radiotherapy. We expect to include 120 patients in five years and have 60 informative tumors for MSI marker. Patients with positive molecular margins will receive postoperative radiotherapy (50 Gy). Patients with negative molecular margins will not receive radiotherapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Radiotherapy 50 Gy in people with Oral Cancer and Oropharynx Cancer, run by Gustave Roussy, Cancer Campus, Grand Paris at 4 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Mar 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

loco-regional control (time frame: 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Mar 2012.
