Brief Title † | Cisplatin-Epinephrine Injectable Gel Plus Paclitaxel and Carboplatin in Treating Patients With Recurrent Head and Neck Cancer | ||||
Official Title † | A Phase II Activity And Safety Study Of IntraDose (Cisplatin/Epinephrine Injectable Gel) When Given In Combination With Systematic Chemotherapy Paclitaxel And Carboplatin In The Treatment Of Patients With Squamous Cell Carcinoma Of The Head And Neck At First Relapse | ||||
Brief Summary | RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving more than one drug and giving the drugs in different ways may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of cisplatin-epinephrine injectable gel plus paclitaxel and carboplatin in treating patients who have recurrent head and neck cancer. |
||||
Detailed Description | OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the antitumor activity of intratumoral cisplatin-epinephrine injectable gel and systemic paclitaxel and carboplatin in patients with recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. II. Determine the safety of this regimen in this patient population. III. Determine the time to progression, pattern of progression, and rate of relapse of patients treated with this regimen. VI. Determine the time to response and duration of response of patients treated with this regimen. V. Determine the overall survival of patients treated with this regimen. OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients receive cisplatin-epinephrine gel intratumorally on days -15, -8, 1, 8, 15, and 22 for course 1 and days 1, 8, 15, and 22 for all subsequent courses. Patients also receive paclitaxel IV over at least 3 hours followed by carboplatin IV over at least 30 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients who achieve local complete response (CR) and no metastatic disease progression continue treatment with carboplatin and paclitaxel only. Patients who achieve total CR may receive 2 additional courses of carboplatin and paclitaxel. Patients are followed at 1-4 weeks and then every 3 months thereafter. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 40 patients will be accrued for this study. |
