Clinical Trial: Dose Escalation Versus Standard in Laryngopharyngeal Cancers

Study Status: Recruiting
Recruit Status: Recruiting
Study Type: Interventional




Official Title: Intensifying Radiation Treatment in Advanced/ Poor Prognosis Laryngeal, Hypopharyngeal (LH) and Oropharyngeal Cancers (OPC) Using PET -CT Based Dose Escalation Strategies ( INTELHOPE)

Brief Summary:

The primary objective of the study is to establish the safety of using a moderate escalation of radiotherapy dose in advanced/poor prognosis OPC and LH cancers receiving curative radiotherapy.

The study will also explore the efficacy (improvement in complete response rates at 2 years) of dose escalation in intermediate and high risk OPC and LH cancers patients.
