Conditions

Interventions

RADIATION

IMRT

Patients will receive intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in once-daily fractions (Monday through Friday, excluding holidays). A total dose of 70Gy is planned. Patients will be seen weekly during radiation as per standard procedure at MSKCC

DEVICE

DWI MRI

The DW and multiparametric MRI will be recommended for 3 months, 6 months, and then every 6 months (all +/- 4 weeks) until 2 years post-RT unless contraindicated for main campus patients only. This schedule may be altered, as clinically indicated.

DRUG

Doxorubicin

Low dose radiosensitizing doxorubicin at 10 mg/m2 will be administered weekly.

OTHER

Modified Barium Swallow Impairment Profile (MBSImP)

The MBSImP is a standardized tool which assesses swallowing impairment as it relates to oral, pharyngeal, and esophageal impairments.
