Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to collect data and evaluate how the tumor is broken down in response to standard of care cetuximab treatment by evaluating the FDG-PET/CT scans, toxicity, see how well the FDG-PET/CT scans predict response to treatment and survival.


Clinical Trial Description

Primary Endpoint

To compare the SUV (standardized uptake value) at up to three target tumor sites as assessed by FDG-PET/CT of eligible patients at baseline and then after eight weeks of treatment with cetuximab.

Secondary Endpoints

- To determine the overall tumor metabolic response (complete metabolic response, partial metabolic response, stable metabolic disease or progressive metabolic disease [CMR, PMR, SMD, or PMD]) to eight weeks of scheduled weekly doses of cetuximab as assessed by FDG-PET/CT performed at baseline and then after therapy.

- To correlate the overall tumor metabolic response (CMR, PMR, SMD, or PMD) as assessed by FDG-PET/CT with the anatomic tumor response rate (complete response, partial response, stable disease or progressive disease [CR, PR, SD, or PD]) by RECIST criteria as assessed by CT and clinical examination performed after eight weeks of scheduled weekly doses of cetuximab.

- To correlate the overall tumor metabolic response (CMR, PMR, SMD, or PMD) as assessed by FDG-PET/CT and to correlate the overall anatomic tumor response (CR, PR, SD, or PD) by RECIST criteria as assessed by CT and clinical examination obtained at baseline and after eight weeks of treatment with weekly scheduled doses of cetuximab to TTP (time to progression) and OS (overall survival) with cetuximab therapy.

- To determine the overall best anatomic tumor response rate (CR, PR, SD, or PD) to cetuximab given until disease progression as assessed by RECIST criteria using CT and clinical examination.

- To determine the overall disease control rate (CR, PR, and SD) by RECIST criteria as assessed by CT and clinical examination and to determine the TTP and the OS with cetuximab therapy.

- To assess the toxicity profile for standard of care cetuximab given to patients with metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. ;
