Giving radiation therapy at different times of the day may affect the chance of developing side effects such as mucositis.\n\nPURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the incidence of mucositis in patients who have cancer of the mouth, pharynx, or larynx, who are receiving radiation therapy in either the morning or afternoon.', 'detailedDescription': 'OBJECTIVES:\n\n* Compare the toxicity of radiotherapy to the oral mucosa delivered in the morning or in the late afternoon in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, pharynx (oro/hypo/naso), or larynx who will receive radiation treatment to a significant part of the oral and/or oropharyngeal mucosa.\n\nOUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to participating center, intended smoking behavior during therapy (smoking vs nonsmoking), and planned total radiotherapy dose.\n\nPatients are randomized to receive radiotherapy once daily, 5 days a week, at one of two of the following times of the day:\n\n* Arm I: Patients receive radiotherapy between 8 and 10 AM (local time).\n* Arm II: Patients receive radiotherapy between 4 and 6 PM (local time). Treatment continues for 5-8 weeks, depending on planned total radiotherapy dose, in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.\n\nToxicity is assessed at baseline, at the first fraction of radiotherapy, weekly during treatment, weekly until mucositis has peaked and is improving, and then every 2 weeks until mucositis has improved to less than grade 2.\n\nQuality of life is assessed at baseline, weekly during treatment and until toxicity has peaked and is improving, every 2 weeks until toxicity is less than grade 2 mucositis, and then at each follow-up visit until week 24.\n\nPatients are followed at weeks 2-3, 6-8, 12, and 24 and then annually for 3 years.\n\nPROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 216 patients (108 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this study.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '120 Years', 'minimumAge': '16 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:\n\n* Histologically or cytologically confirmed squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, pharynx (oropharynx, hypopharynx, or nasopharynx), or larynx eligible for radical radiotherapy\n\n * TX, T1-4, NX, N0-3, M0\n * Directly visible area of mucosa including 2 or more protocol specified anatomical locations in the radical target volume\n\n * At least 6 cm\\^2 in area irrespective of shape\n * No M1 disease\n* Intention to deliver radiotherapy to a radical dose without chemotherapy\n* May have had surgical resection of the primary or neck nodes\n\n * Postoperative macroscopic or microscopic residual disease that is eligible for radical radiotherapy is allowed\n * Patients with completely resected disease who are judged to be at high risk of relapse and who are eligible for radical radiotherapy are allowed\n\nPATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:\n\nAge:\n\n* 16 and over\n\nPerformance status:\n\n* ECOG 0-1\n\nLife expectancy:\n\n* Not specified\n\nHematopoietic:\n\n* Hemoglobin ≥ 10 g/dL\n* Granulocyte count ≥ 1,500/mm\\^3\n* Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm\\^3\n\nHepatic:\n\n* Not specified\n\nRenal:\n\n* Not specified\n\nOther:\n\n* Not pregnant or nursing\n* Fertile patients must use effective contraception\n* HIV negative\n* Must have normal sleeping habits (i.e., normal circadian rhythm)\n* Must have had dental assessment and necessary prophylactic dental extractions carried out\n* No connective tissue diseases (e.g., systemic lupus, scleroderma, mixed connective tissue disease, rheumatoid arthritis)\n* No organic brain syndrome related to chronic alcohol excess or other cause of sufficient severity that would preclude cooperation with treatment\n* No active uncontrolled infection\n* No history of psychiatric or neurological disorder that would preclude study compliance\n\nPRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:\n\nBiologic therapy:\n\n* Not specified\n\nChemotherapy:\n\n* See Disease Characteristics\n* At least 6 months since prior chemotherapy\n\nEndocrine therapy:\n\n* Not specified\n\nRadiotherapy:\n\n* See Disease Characteristics\n* No prior radiotherapy to the head and neck region\n\nSurgery:\n\n* See Disease Characteristics\n\nOther:\n\n* No other concurrent oral hygiene regimen other than that described in the protocol\n* No concurrent radioprotective drugs or therapy'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00004234', 'briefTitle': 'Oral Mucositis in Patients Receiving Radiation Therapy for Cancer of the Mouth, Pharynx, or Larynx', 'organization': {'class': 'NETWORK', 'fullName': 'Canadian Cancer Trials Group'}, 'officialTitle': 'A Comparison of Acute Oral Mucositis Between Morning and Afternoon Radiotherapy in Patients Receiving Radiation Treatment for Cancer of the Head and Neck', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'HN3'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'CAN-NCIC-HN3', 'type': 'OTHER', 'domain': 'PDQ'}, {'id': 'CDR0000067478', 'type': 'OTHER', 'domain': 'PDQ'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'interventions': [{'name': 'management of therapy complications', 'type': 'PROCEDURE'}, {'name': 'radiation therapy', 'type': 'RADIATION'}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': 'V1Y 5L3', 'city': 'Kelowna', 'state': 'British Columbia', 'country': 'Canada', 'facility': 'British Columbia Cancer Agency -
