Summary

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the tolerability and efficacy of a combination of weekly docetaxel, cisplatin, and S-1 (weekly TPS) as induction chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

S-1

S-1 is an oral fluoropyrimidine derivative, based on the concept of biochemical modulation. It consists in a molar ratio of 1:0.4:1: tegafur, a prodrug that is slowly metabolized to 5-fluorouracil; gimeracil, which reversibly inhibits dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase. In patients with advanced gastric cancer, phase I study of S-1, docetaxel and cisplatin combination chemotherapy was reported and the recommended doses were 40mg/m2 bid (D1-D14), 60mg/m2 (D1) and 60mg/m2 (D1), respectively.

DRUG

S-1

Chemotherapy was comprised of docetaxel 30 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8, cisplatin 60 mg/m2 on day 1, and S-1 70 mg/m2 on days 1 to 14, with the regimen repeated every 21 days

DRUG

S-1

In patients with advanced gastric cancer, phase I study of S-1, docetaxel and cisplatin combination chemotherapy was reported and the recommended doses were 40mg/m2 bid (D1-D14), 60mg/m2 (D1) and 60mg/m2 (D1), respectively. Another phase II study of TPS as induction chemotherapy for locally advanced HNSCC was determined to be 70/70/60 mg∙m2/d every 3 weeks. However, the rate of grade 3-4 neutropenia was 75% at this recommended dose. To reduce the hematologic toxicities, we used the docetaxel weekly. Therefore following regimen was evaluated in this study; docetaxel 30 mg/m2 (D1, D8), cisplatin 60mg/m2 (D1), S-1 70mg/m2 (D1-D14) every 3 weeks.
