Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Clinical Trial
Official title:
Randomized Phase II Study of Cisplatin Plus Radiotherapy Versus Durvalumab Plus Radiotherapy Followed by Adjuvant Durvalumab Versus Durvalumab Plus Radiotherapy Followed by Adjuvant Tremelimumab and Durvalumab in Intermediate Risk HPV-Positive Locoregionally Advanced Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Cancer (LA-OSCC)

Study type | Interventional |
Sometimes, cancer patients receive an initial treatment, followed by additional treatment to lower the chance of cancer coming back. The standard or usual treatment for this type of disease is initially having radiation therapy at the same time as chemotherapy (with a drug called cisplatin), with no additional therapy afterwards

Corticosteroids used on study for anti-emetic purpose are allowed. Corticosteroids as premedication for hypersensitivity reactions (e.g. computed tomography [CT] scan premedication) are allowed. - Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders (including inflammatory bowel disease (e.g. colitis or Crohn's disease), diverticulitis with the exception of diverticulosis, celiac disease (controlled by diet alone) or other serious gastrointestinal chronic conditions associated with diarrhea), systemic lupus erythematosus, Sarcoidosis syndrome, or Wegener syndrome (granulomatosis with polyangiitis), rheumatoid arthritis, hypophysitis, uveitis, etc., within the past 3 years prior to the start of treatment. The following are exceptions to this criterion: - Patients with vitiligo or alopecia; - Patients with Grave's disease, vitiligo or psoriasis not requiring systemic treatment (within the last 2 years); - Patients with hypothyroidism (e.g. following Hashimoto syndrome) stable on hormone replacement; - Any chronic skin condition that does not require systemic therapy. - Patients with active or uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to: - cardiac dysfunction (symptomatic congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia); - active peptic ulcer disease or gastritis; - active bleeding diatheses; - psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements or compromise the ability of the subject to give written informed consent; - known history of previous clinical diagnosis of tuberculosis; - known active human immunodeficiency virus infection (positive HIV 1/2 antibodies); HIV-infected patients on effective anti-retroviral therapy with undetectable viral load within 6 months are eligible; - known active hepatitis B infection (positive HBV surface antigen (HBsAg). Patients with a past or resolved HBV infection (defined as presence of hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc) and absence of HBsAg) are eligible; - known active hepatitis C infection. Patients positive for hepatitis C (HCV) antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction is negative for HCV RNA. - History of interstitial lung disease e.g. pneumonitis or pulmonary fibrosis or evidence of interstitial lung disease on baseline CT scan. - Receipt of live attenuated vaccination (examples include, but are not limited to, vaccines for measles, mumps, and rubella, live attenuated influenza vaccine (nasal), chicken pox vaccine, oral polio vaccine, rotavirus vaccine, yellow fever vaccine, BCG vaccine, typhoid vaccine and typhus vaccine) within 30 days prior to randomization. - Pregnant or lactating women - Any active disease condition which would render the protocol treatment dangerous or impair the ability of the patient to receive protocol therapy. - Any condition (e.g. psychological, geographical, etc.) that does not permit compliance with the protocol |

Primary | 3 year event-free survival | Event-free survival (EFS), is defined as the time from randomization to the time when a failure event is observed. Failure is define by Local-regional progression or recurrence, Distant metastasis, Non-protocol RT, chemotherapy, Surgery or death. | 3 years | |
Secondary | Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Head and Neck Version (FACT-HN) score. | The FACT-H&N is a multidimensional, self-report QoL instrument specifically designed for use with head and neck cancer patients (1-3). It consists of 27 core items which assess patient function in four domains: Physical, Social/Family, Emotional, and Functional well-being, which is further supplemented by 12 site specific items to assess for head and neck related symptoms.
Each item is rated on a 0 to 4 Likert type scale, and then combined to produce subscale scores for each domain, as well as an global QoL score. Higher scores represent better QoL. |

Secondary | Local regional failure | Locoregional control defined as time from randomization to the time of first documented local (primary site) or regional (lymph node) recurrence | 6 years | |
