Study Summary

RATIONALE: Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Erlotinib hydrochloride may also make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x- rays and other types of radiation to kill tumor cells. Giving erlotinib hydrochloride together with radiation therapy may be an effective treatment for patients with head and neck cancer.PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving erlotinib hydrochloride together with radiation therapy works in treating patients with stage III-IV squamous cell cancer of the head and neck.

Interventions

  • RADIATION intensity-modulated radiation therapy
  • OTHER pharmacogenomic studies
  • RADIATION 3-dimensional conformal radiation therapy
  • DRUG erlotinib hydrochloride
  • OTHER gene expression analysis
