Summary

This is a randomized, open-label investigator initiated pilot/ feasibility study comparing the effectiveness of intra-arterial administration of cisplatin therapy to intravenous administration of cisplatin when each is combined with the radiation therapy found in standard care. Participants will be randomized to either intra-arterial or intravenous cisplatin chemotherapy. This study is designed to determine whether a large scale study is practical in the investigators clinical setting. Approximately 10 subjects will be enrolled over a 2 year period.
