Brief Summary: RATIONALE Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase III trial to study the effectiveness of radiation therapy following surgery in treating patients who have recurrent or second primary cancer of the head and neck following previous radiation therapy
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the survival and local control in previously irradiated patients at high risk for local failure following regional resection of recurrent or second primary head and neck cancer
Determine the acute and late toxicities of this treatment in these patients
Determine the pattern of disease failure in these patients on this treatment
Determine any change in quality of life in these patients on this treatment

OUTLINE Patients receive fractionated doses of radiotherapy five times weekly for 6 weeks

Quality of life is assessed prior to study 2 months after radiotherapy every 3 months for remainder of year 1 every 4 months for years 2-3 every 6 months for years 4-5 and then annually thereafter

Patients are followed 2 months after radiotherapy every 3 months for year 1 every 4 months for year 2 every 6 months for years 3-5 and then annually thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 30 patients will be accrued for this study within 5 years
