简要总结
Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of gefitinib in treating patients who have recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck cancer. Biological therapies such as gefitinib may interfere with the growth of tumor cells by blocking an enzyme necessary for cell growth.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the disease control rate, in terms of complete response, partial response, and stable disease for at least 4 months, in patients with recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell cancer of the head and neck treated with gefitinib.
II. Determine the effect of this drug on epidermal growth factor receptor phosphorylation and expression of selected genes in these patients.
III. Determine the toxic effects of this drug in these patients.
OUTLINE: Patients are stratified as delineated in the Disease Characteristics.
