Brief Summary: RATIONALE Monoclonal antibodies such as bevacizumab can block tumor growth in different ways Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor Drugs used in chemotherapy such as docetaxel work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells Giving bevacizumab together with docetaxel and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE This phase II trial is studying how well giving bevacizumab together with docetaxel and radiation therapy works in treating patients with stage III or stage IV head and neck cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the time to progression in patients with stage III or IV squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck treated with bevacizumab in combination with docetaxel and radiotherapy

Secondary

Compare the objective response rate locoregional control rate duration of response patterns of failure and overall survival of patients treated with this regimen
Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients

OUTLINE Patients undergo radiotherapy once daily 5 days a week for 8 weeks and receive docetaxel IV over 1 hour once a week for 8 weeks Patients also receive bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes once every 2 weeks for up to 1 year

Approximately 8-10 weeks after the completion of chemoradiotherapy patients may undergo neck dissection Bevacizumab which stops 8 weeks before surgery may restart 4 weeks after surgery and continue for 9 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

After completion of study treatment patients are followed periodically

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 30 patients will be accrued for this study
