Study Summary

RATIONALE: Radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining high-dose radiation with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of combining high-dose radiation therapy with chemotherapy in treating patients who have newly diagnosed stage II, stage III, or stage IV nasopharyngeal cancer.
