Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Primary Objective: To determine the 2-year distant failure rate of maintenance tegafur-uracil in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of oral cavity with extracapsular spreading of lymph nodes. Secondary Objectives: * To determine the 2-year locoregional failure rate. * To evaluate the 2-year overall survival (OS) rate. * To evaluate the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate. * To assess the safety profiles.

- description
- Eligible patient will be given maintenance tegafur-uracil for one year. Dose of tegafur-uracil will be based on patient's body surface area (BSA): * BSA \< 1.5 m2: tegafur-uracil 300 mg/day (1 capsule three times a day) * BSA ≥ 1.5 m2: tegafur-uracil 400 mg/day (2 capsules twice a day) Tegafur-uracil will be started after patient has complete the adjuvant radiotherapy and been enrolled into the study.
