Study Summary

Taking into account the excellent prognosis of patients with HPV-positive oropharyngeal cancer with \< 10 pack-year smoking, the investigators hypothesize that reducing the intensity of therapy for these patients will reduce treatment sequelae, notably long-term dysphagia, without affecting their cure rates. The main Aim is to assess whether reducing treatment intensity, by replacing concurrent chemotherapy with cetuximab, will indeed achieve improved long-term toxicity. The primary objectives include the following: to confirm that reducing treatment intensity in patients with HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer and \< 10 pack-year smoking history by replacing concurrent chemotherapy with concurrent cetuximab, does not significantly increase the proportion of patients whose tumors recur, compared to our previous experience in similar patients receiving chemo-RT and to compare the toxicity in patients receiving cetuximab-RT to similar patients treated with 7 weeks of chemotherapy concurrent with RT ("standard therapy") in UMCC 2-21.

Primary Outcome

Number of patients whose tumors recur (includes local, regional, and distant recurrence; and second primaries). Note: Research indicates that freedom from local and regional progression (FFLRP) is a more meaningful measure. Therefore, the percentage of patients with FFLRP is included below as a Post-Hoc measure.

Interventions

  • RADIATION Radiotherapy
  • DRUG Cetuximab
