Complexity Level: 2

Eligibility: 1) Histologically and/or cytologically confirmed (primary lesion or regional lymph nodes) squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx (OSCC) which is locoregionally advanced, intermediate risk and non-metastatic (M0) as defined by the following: - T1-2 N2b (smoking >10 pack-years) - T3 N0-N2b (smoking >10 pack-years) - T1-3 N2c (any smoking history) 2) Human papillomavirus (HPV)-related as determined by positive p16 immunohistochemical staining on any tumoural specimens. 3) Performance status of 0 or 1. 4) > 18 years of age. 5) Patient must consent to release of tumour tissue, blood, saliva and throat swab samples for correlative studies. 6) Adequate normal organ and marrow function.

Objectives: Primary: To estimate the efficacy (in terms of event-free survival) of 3 treatment Arms: (A) radiotherapy (RT) and cisplatin; (B) RT and durvalumab followed by adjuvant durvalumab; and (C) RT and durvalumab followed by adjuvant durvalumab and tremelimumab in patients with intermediate risk, HPV-positive, locally advanced oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (LA-OSCC). Secondary: 1) To assess differences between arms in change in FACT-HN score from baseline to 36 months post-RT; 2) To estimate and describe the following in each of the 3 treatment arms: Locoregional control; Distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS); OS; Toxicity; Incidence of second cancer; Dysphagia; PRO-CTCAE Radiation related late toxicity; Cost effectiveness; Cost utility; and lost productivity. Tertiary: 1) Correlative Studies; 2) Event-free survival as defined by iRECIST.

A Comparison of Acute Oral Mucositis Between Morning and Afternoon Radiotherapy in Patients Receiving Radiation Treatment for Cancer of the Head and Neck

Eligibility: Patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, pharynx (oro, hypo and naso), or larynx, who are to receive radiation treatment to a significant part of the oral and/or pharyngeal mucosa where the reaction will be visible.

Objectives: To compare the toxicity of radiotherapy to the oral mucosa delivered in the morning and the late afternoon; to compare grades and duration of mucositis, incidence of clinically significant mucositis using a validated mucositis scoring system, treatment days lost because of treatment reactions, incidence of late toxicity, changes in body weight, complete response rates, survival and quality of life.

A Phase II Study of Cisplatin and Gemcitabine in Patients with Locally Advanced/Recurrent or Metastatic Malignant Salivary Gland Tumours

Eligibility: Patients will have documented evidence of locally advanced recurrent and/or metastatic malignant salivary gland tumours deemed to be incurable by surgery or radiation. Patients may have had up to one prior chemotherapy regimen for locally advanced recurrent/metastatic disease provided that it was non cisplatin/carboplatin or gemcitabine containing and at least 4 weeks have elapsed since chemotherapy discontinuation and study registration. Adjuvant chemotherapy (including cisplatin or carboplatin based regimens) is allowed provided that a minimum of 12 months has elapsed.

Objectives: Primary: To estimate the activity of combination cisplatin (or carboplatin) and gemcitabine among patients with malignant salivary gland tumours which are locally recurrent or metastatic. Secondary: Measurement of complete response Measurement of duration of response Assessment of the toxicity profile of the combination regimen Measurement of overall survival

A Phase I Study of Adjuvant OSI-774 (Tarceva) in Patients Following Combined Chemo-Radiotherapy for Locally Advanced Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck

Eligibility: Patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (stages III, IVA or IVB) post treatment with combined chemo-radiotherapy (cisplatin based). Patients must have no evidence of disease or presence of inoperable minimal residual disease at the time of registration.

Objectives: To evaluate the toxicity and determine the recommended dose of OSI-774. To evaluate the effect(s) of OSI-774 on plasma and urinary angiogenic factors (specifically VEGF, VEGFR, VEGFR2, bFGF levels) before, during and after therapy. To correlate angiogenic factor levels with initial blood vessel concentration in the tumour and with the presence or absence of EGFRvIII mutation. To document disease free survival (DFS).
