About this study

The purpose of this study is to confirm the safety and efficacy of Apatinib in Combination With Radiotherapy / Chemotherapy for Second-line and Above Recurrent / Metastatic Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

Read the detailed description

Head and neck cancer refers to the skull base to the supraclavicular, cervical spine within the scope of all malignant tumors is more common in China's malignant tumors. Head and neck cancer mainly surgery and radiotherapy, chemotherapy alone or in combination therapy, common head and neck squamous cell carcinoma chemotherapy programs are: PF regimen (cisplatin + 5-fluorouracil), PLF program (cisplatin + carboplatin +5 - fluorouracil), TPF program (cisplatin + 5 - fluorouracil + paclitaxel) and so on. The researcher consider to add apatinib,a tyrosine kinase inhibitor of VEGF,to the therapy of these patients.

Being tested
Apatinib plus chemoradiation

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause

    Measured: up to 2 year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall survival(OS)

    From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause

    Measured: up to 2 year

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause

    Measured: up to 1 year

  3. Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    Defined as the proportion of patients with a documented complete response, partial response, and stable disease (CR

    + PR + SD)

    Measured: up to 1 year

  4. Duration of response(DOR)

    Measured: up to 2 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Apatinib plus chemoradiation in people with Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma, run by Henan Cancer Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 11 inclusion and 14 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 6 Feb 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Contact hui Wu (13503716710, wuhui7008@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression-free Survival (PFS) (time frame: up to 2 year). 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 6 Feb 2018.
