Standard therapy for locally advanced head & neck squamous cell carcinoma in-volves combined radiation therapy and surgery for resectable cases, & radiation therapy alone for those deemed unresectable.

Taxol has shown significant activity as a single agent in both untreated and previously treated head & neck cancer.
