Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The prognoses of recurrent/metastatic head and neck epithelial tumors after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy is poor. The efficacy of second-line chemotherapy for those patients that cannot be re-irradiated or re-operated is limited according to NCCN guideline and other published data. This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of endostatin combined with second-line chemotherapy for patients of recurrent/metastatic head and neck epithelial tumors that cannot be re-irradiated or re-operated after fist-line platinum-based chemotherapy.
