To establish the efficacy and toxicities of concurrent erlotinib and docetaxel with IMRT for locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Patients received daily erlotinib for two weeks, followed by daily IMRT with concurrent weekly docetaxel and daily erlotinib, followed by daily erlotinib for up to two years. The primary objective was disease-free survival (DFS). Secondary objectives included overall survival (OS), patterns of failure, and toxicities. Forty-three patients were recruited. With a median follow-up of 48.7 months, the 3 year DFS, OS, locoregional failure free survival and distant metastasis free survival was 69.5%, 81%, 82.4%, and 83.7%, respectively. The most common grade III/IV local toxicities were dysphagia, dermatitis and mucositis. Patients with P16+ tumor had significantly better outcomes. The regimen is tolerable and effective. It is worthy of further investigation in selected patients and may be useful in patients who cannot tolerate cisplatin.
