Abstract

AbstractConcurrent chemoradiation is the standard of care in the non-surgical management of locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the larynx. Cetuximab can be used as an alternative to platinum for concomitant radiotherapy and the addition of cetuximab to cisplatin has been reported to improve response rates compared with cisplatin alone. We report two cases of patients who progressed through platinum-based induction chemotherapy and subsequently achieved a complete response with concurrent cetuximab radiotherapy.
