This is a single-arm non-randomized two-stage phase II trial in previously untreated patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) arising in the oral cavity, oropharynx, or supraglottic larynx amenable to a transoral surgical approach. Treatment will consist of 3 parts: neoadjuvant induction with weekly carboplatin and paclitaxel in combination with daily lapatinib for 6 weeks (PART 1) prior to transoral surgery (PART 2). Post-operative treatment (PART 3) will vary depending on the risk category assigned to the patient following surgery as follows: no further treatment or treatment limited to involved field radiation (low risk), ipsilateral radiation concurrent with weekly chemotherapy ( medium risk); or cisplatin every 3 weeks and daily lapatinib concurrent with bilateral radiation (high risk).
