NCT02526953

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of paclitaxel, capecitabine, mitomycin and intensity-modulated radiotherapy is more effective than the standard combination of capecitabine, mitomycin and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in patients with squamous-cell anal cancer.

Paclitaxel

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will receive intensity-modulated radiotherapy with dose based on T stage. The planned doses to the primary tumor and pelvis are 52-58 Gy and 44 Gy, respectively.The concurrent chemotherapy regimen will consist of paclitaxel 45 mg/m2 on days 3,10,17,24,31, capecitabine 625 mg/m2 bid on treatment days and mitomycin C 10 g/m2 on day 1.

Drug: PaclitaxelDrug: CapecitabineDrug: MitomycinsRadiation: Radiotherapy
