Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Cisplatin + Radiation + Pembrolizumab - Concurrent | Cisplatin and Radiation and Pembrolizumab given 1 week prior to the start of cisplatin and radiation and given every 3 weeks~Pembrolizumab: In both arms, the dose of pembrolizumab will be 200 mg (fixed dose) intravenous (IV) every 3 weeks for a total of 8 doses. In Arm 1, pembrolizumab will begin in week 10 of treatment, after cisplatin-IMRT is complete. In Arm 2, pembrolizumab will begin the week before cisplatin-IMRT.~Cisplatin: Patients will receive cisplatin once weekly as an IV infusion over 60 minutes, for a total of 7 doses, at the same time as radiation.~IMRT: IMRT will be delivered in 35 fractions (treatments) over 7 weeks (five treatments per non-holiday week) in one plan. | 11 | 41 | EG000 |
| Group 2 | Cisplatin + Radiation + Pembrolizumab - Sequential | Cisplatin, Radiation, and Pembrolizumab started 3 weeks after completion of cisplatin and radiation.~Pembrolizumab: In both arms, the dose of pembrolizumab will be 200 mg (fixed dose) intravenous (IV) every 3 weeks for a total of 8 doses.
