Brief Summary: RATIONALE Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells It is not yet known if fluorouracil plus radiation therapy is more effective with or without additional chemotherapy in treating anal cancer

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of fluorouracil plus radiation therapy with or without additional chemotherapy in treating patients who have primary anal cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare the response rates in patients with primary epidermoid anal cancer treated with radiotherapy and fluorouracil with either mitomycin or cisplatin and with or without maintenance therapy
Compare local control and prevention or delay of disease dissemination in patients treated with these regimens

OUTLINE This is randomized open-label multicenter study Patients are randomized to one of four treatment arms

All patients undergo radiotherapy daily 5 days a week for 55 weeks All patients also receive fluorouracil IV continuously over days 1-4 and 29-32

Arm I Patients receive mitomycin IV on day 1
Arm II Patients receive cisplatin IV on days 1 and 29
Arm III Patients receive mitomycin as in arm I and maintenance therapy comprising fluorouracil IV continuously over days 1-4 and cisplatin IV on day 1 beginning 4-8 weeks after completion of primary therapy and repeating once 3 weeks later
Arm IV Patients receive cisplatin as in arm II and maintenance therapy as in arm III

Patients are followed at 2 months every 3 months for 2 years every 6 months for 3 years and then annually thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 600 patients 150 per treatment arm will be accrued for this study
