Trial Outcomes & Findings for EVALUATION OF AMIFOSTINE FOR MUCOSAL AND HEMOPOETIC PROTECTION AND CARBOPLATIN, TAXOL, RADIOTHERAPY IN THE MANAGEMENT OF PATIENTS WITH HEAD AND NECK CANCER.(GCC 0202) (NCT NCT00270790)

NCT ID: NCT00270790

Last Updated: 2017-02-01

Results Overview

Blood work (CMP was collected and evaluated for neutropenia, leukopenia and anemia) is taken prior to chemotherapy administration. The toxicity levels were measured using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE 3.0) and monitored based on the dose of Amifostine given.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 3 years

Population: 21 patients enrolled, however only 16 patients were analyzed due to 5 patients withdrawals.

Blood work (CMP was collected and evaluated for neutropenia, leukopenia and anemia) is taken prior to chemotherapy administration. The toxicity levels were measured using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE 3.0) and monitored based on the dose of Amifostine given.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 3 years

Population: 21 patients enrolled, however only 16 patients were analyzed due to 5 patients withdrawals.

Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.
