NCT01843452

Brief Summary

There is increasing evidence of a role of EGFR, treatment with EGFR-inhibitors in anal cancer and synergies of EGFR-inhibitors with radiotherapy. Addition of the human anti-EGFR antibody Panitumumab to chemoradiotherapy seems therefore solidly justified. This trial investigates concurrent panitumumab/capecitabine/mitomycin concurrent to IMRT-radiotherapy. Treatment components used in this study have been selected on scientific rationale. The trial regimen should be feasible with acceptable toxicity and outcome similar to historic series.

Study Arms (1)

Capecitabine, mitomycin, panitumumab and radiotherapy

EXPERIMENTAL

RADIOTHERAPY: daily fraction dose of 1.8Gy , 5 days a week between day 1 and 45 Intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), using a linac based facility or helical tomotherapy, is obligatory. The first treatment sequence consists of a total dose of 36 Gy in 20 daily fractions of 1.8 Gy on five days a week. The second treatment sequence consists of a total dose of 23.4 Gy in 13 daily fractions of 1.8 Gy on five days a week. PANITUMUMAB: 6 mg/kg IV over 60 min infusion on days 1, 15 and 29 MITOMYCIN: 10 mg/m2 IV over 15 min infusion on days 1 and 29 CAPECITABINE: 825 mg/m2 oral twice daily on days 1 to 45

Interventions

RADIOTHERAPYRADIATION

External beam radiotherapy (daily fraction dose 1.8Gy) on Monday through Friday starting on study day 1. * Days 1-28, dose of 36 Gy in 1.8 Gy/fraction (20 fractions) to the clinical target volume 1 (CTV1) including the primary tumor and involved lymph nodes and areas at risk for metastatic spread (which includes gross tumour volumes (GTV) and a 1-cm expansion, mesorectal space, inguinal, femoral, external iliac, internal iliac, and common iliac vessels). * Days 29-45, a boost dose of 23.4 Gy in 1.8 Gy/fraction (13 fractions) to the GTV.
