Brief Title: A Study of TNFerade™ Biologic With Concomitant Radiotherapy, Fluorouracil, and Hydroxyurea (TNF-FHX) in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
Official Title: A Phase I/II Safety, Tolerability, and "Proof of Concept" Study of TNFerade™ Biologic in Combination With Concomitant Radiotherapy, Fluorouracil, and Hydroxyurea (TNF-FHX) for Patients With Unresectable Recurrent Head and Neck Cancer
Study ID: NCT00496535
Brief Summary: The primary objective of the first phase is to determine the safety, the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicity of TNFerade in combination with the previously studied combination of Fluorouracil (5FU), Hydroxyurea (HU) and standard daily radiotherapy in patients with recurrent head and neck cancer (RHNC). All chemoradiotherapy is administered on a "week-on/week-off" schedule. The primary objective of the second phase II is to determine the locoregional control rate at 24 months.
