TITAN is a open-label randomized controlled trial conducted in patients with previously untreated locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).
Induction(TPF) chemotherapy is a significant recent advance in the management of locally advanced HNSCC, although its use in combination with Surgery and postoperative radiotherapy(PORT) is under-researched.
TITAN address the potential survival advantage of TPF induction chemotherapy prior to Surgery and radiotherapy for locally advanced resectable SCCHN.
