Brief Summary: RATIONALE Tests that measure how much saliva is made hearing swallowing voice function and quality of life may improve the ability to plan treatment for patients with advanced head and neck cancer and may help doctors find better ways to treat the cancer

PURPOSE This clinical trial is studying the side effects of high-dose intensity-modulated radiation therapy in treating patients with advanced head and neck cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Assess salivary function in patients with advanced head and neck cancer treated with intensity-modulated radiotherapy IMRT by measuring stimulated saliva production at 6 and 12 months after completion of therapy
Compare salivary function in these patients to salivary function in historical controls

Secondary

Assess auditory swallow and voice function and quality of life of these patients before and after IMRT or chemoradiotherapy
Advance experience with IMRTtomotherapy and improve field design for irradiating head and neck cancer in an effort to reduce radiation dose and minimize effects on surrounding normal tissue

OUTLINE This is a prospective study

Patients undergo standard of care high-dose intensity-modulated radiotherapy IMRT to the head and neck

Patients undergo baseline and post-treatment testing of auditory salivary swallow and voice function as well as quality of life evaluation

Patients are evaluated for radiation-induced toxicities at 1 6 and 12 months after completion of IMRT

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 20 patients will be accrued for this study
