Two-thirds of patients with squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (SCCHN) at diagnosis have advanced disease with projected 5-year survival rates of 30%. In those patients with distant metastatic or previously treated recurrent disease, response rate to the standard regimen of cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil is approximately 30%. The authors investigated the use of paclitaxel and carboplatin in a limited Phase II study in recurrent or metastatic SCCHN to evaluate tumor response, time to progression, survival, and toxicities of this regimen.
