Description: For this single arm, open label, dose escalation, phase 1 study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02158234), researchers are evaluating the maximum tolerated dose and efficacy of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) with cisplatin among patients with recurrent or unresectable squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
The starting dose will be 6 Gy for 5 fractions. Prior to each SBRT fraction, patients will receive 15 mg/m2 of cisplatin.
The primary outcome is maximal tolerated dose; the secondary outcomes are local control rate and overall survival.
