Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells Combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy followed by radiation therapy and chemotherapy in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV cancer of the larynx or stage III or stage IV cancer of the oropharynx
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the organ preservation rate in patients with stage III or IV squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx or oropharynx treated with paclitaxel and carboplatin followed by paclitaxel with concurrent radiotherapy
Determine the feasibility and toxicity of this regimen in these patients
Determine the utility of pre- and post-treatment organ function instruments on swallowing ability and voice quality in patients treated with this regimen
Determine the disease-free survival and patterns of failure of patients treated with this regimen
Determine the objective tumor response rate complete and partial response in these patients following treatment with 2 courses of induction therapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin
Determine changes in quality of life of patients treated with this regimen
Determine whether the presence of human papilloma virus infection and p-glycoprotein correlates with outcome in patients treated with this regimen

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study Patients are stratified according to disease site larynx vs oropharynx

Patients receive induction therapy comprising paclitaxel IV over 3 hours followed by carboplatin IV over 30-60 minutes on days 1 and 22 Within 28 days after completion of induction therapy patients with responding or stable disease receive paclitaxel IV over 60 minutes on days 1 8 15 22 29 36 and 43 and radiotherapy once daily 5 times weekly for 7 weeks beginning on day 1

Within 6-8 weeks after completion of therapy patients who initially had bulky neck disease N3 or who have residual palpable lymphadenopathy undergo surgical neck dissection Patients with N1-N2 disease with complete response may also undergo neck dissection Patients with initial complete response who recur at the primary site undergo surgical salvage

Quality of life is assessed at baseline after induction therapy and at 3 12 and 24 months after completion of all therapy

Patients are followed at 6 weeks 3 months every 6-8 weeks for 1 year every 3 months for 1 year every 4 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 5 years thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 110 patients 55 per stratum will be accrued for this study
