Study Summary

A 10 week trial to assess the ability of Tempol to prevent and/or reduce toxicities associated with cisplatin and radiation treatment in head and neck cancer patients. Over the course of the 10 week trial, mucositis, nephrotoxicity, and ototoxicity will be monitored and assessed.

Primary Outcome

To determine the efficacy of Tempol in reducing the incidence severe mucositis defined as grade 3 or 4 on the World Health Organization (WHO) scale. The incidence will measure the number of patients who experience grade 3 or 4 mucositis according to the World Health Organization (WHO) scale. A reduction in the number of patients who receive grade 3 or 4 mucositis over the course of the treatment is considered a positive change in incidence.
