Brief Summary:
RATIONALE: Giving a nutritional supplement containing arginine, omega-3 fatty acids, and nucleotides to patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiation therapy may stimulate the immune system and help the body build a stronger immune response.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well an arginine/omega-3 fatty acids/nucleotides nutritional supplement works in treating patients with stage III or stage IV head and neck cancer undergoing chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

Detailed Description:
OBJECTIVES:
* Assess the effects of immunomodulator arginine/omega-3 fatty acids/nucleotides oral supplement (Oral IMPACT®) administered via percutaneous gastrostomy during adjuvant chemoradiotherapy in patients with stage III or IV epidermoid head and neck cancer.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Patients undergo radiotherapy 5 days a week for 6½ weeks. Patients receive cisplatin IV during weeks 1, 4, and 7 of radiotherapy. Patients also receive arginine/omega-3 fatty acids/nucleotides oral supplement (Oral IMPACT®) via percutaneous gastrostomy tube 3 times daily for 5 days before each chemotherapy treatment.
