Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy such as S-1 and tegafur-uracil work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing Giving S-1 or tegafur-uracil after surgery chemotherapy biological therapy andor radiation therapy may kill any remaining tumor cells It is not yet known whether S-1 is more effective than tegafur-uracil in treating head and neck cancer

PURPOSE This randomized phase III trial is studying S-1 to see how well it works compared with tegafur-uracil in treating patients with previously treated stage III or stage IV head and neck cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare the disease-free survival rate in patients with definitively treated stage III or IV squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck treated with adjuvant chemotherapy comprising S-1 vs tegafur-uracil UFT

OUTLINE This is a randomized controlled multicenter study Patients are stratified according to primary site disease stage type of prior definitive treatment and participating center Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Patients receive oral S-1 once daily on days 1-14 Courses repeat every 21 days for 1 year in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
Arm IIPatients receive oral tegafur-uracil UFT once daily on days 1-21 Courses repeat every 21 days for 1 year in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 500 patients will be accrued for this study
