Key Words	Head and neck cancer; Chemotherapy; Induction
Core Tip	For select patient subsets the addition of chemotherapy to radiation in head and neck squamous cell cancer improves outcome. Most data is for concurrent cisplatin although other agents are also being explored. There has recently been interest in induction chemotherapy, the induction studies although heterogeneous have failed to show an improvement in overall survival. In this article we discuss the data regarding concurrent chemotherapy and also the data regarding induction therapy and which patient subsets we feel are best suited for induction chemotherapy (patients with N3 disease and those expected to have a delay in starting concurrent concurrent chemoradiotherapy).
