Abstract
Concomitant chemoradiotherapy holds promise in the therapy of advanced head and neck cancer. We have previously reported on the combination of 5-fluorouracil, hydroxyurea, and concomitant chemoradiotherapy administered on an alternate-week basis. In this ongoing study, we are testing the feasibility of adding continuous-infusion paclitaxel (Taxol; Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Princeton, NJ) to this combination. Background information and early clinical data are presented.
