Summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that treatment with avelumab in combination with RT-cetuximab is superior to standard of care (SOC) cisplatin-RT and/or to SOC RT-cetuximab alone in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) in front-line patients with locally advanced SCCHN.

Conditions

  • HNSCC

Interventions

DRUG

Cetuximab

Loading dose of 400 mg/m² IV on Day-8, followed by weekly dose of 250 mg/m² IV during the whole course of RT.

DRUG

avelumab

IV infusion of avelumab (10 mg/kg over 1 hour) once every 2 weeks. Avelumab will start on Day-8 together with cetuximab and subsequently every 2 weeks during the course of RT. Avelumab with be continued every 2 weeks for an additional 12 months following RT.

DRUG

Cisplatin

100 mg/m² IV after hyperhydration and at a maximal rate of 1 mg/min, on days 1, 22, 43.

RADIATION

IMRT

RT will be performed using IMRT (intensity modulated radiotherapy), with a simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) technique. RT dose to the GTV will be 69.96 Gy in 2.12 Gy daily fractions over 6.5 weeks (33 fractions). Prophylactic dose will be 52.8 Gy in 1.6 Gy daily fractions over 6.5 weeks (33 fractions).
