简要总结

RATIONALE: Gefitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Giving gefitinib and paclitaxel together with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of gefitinib and paclitaxel when given together with radiation therapy in treating patients with advanced or recurrent squamous cell carcinoma (cancer) of the head and neck.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the dose-limiting toxicity, toxicity profile, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of gefitinib and paclitaxel administered with radiotherapy in patients with advanced or recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.

Secondary

  • Determine the efficacy of this regimen in patients treated at the MTD.
