To evaluate OS and toxicity after definitive radiation with concurrent cetuximab (CTX-RT) compared to radiation with concurrent cytotoxic chemotherapy (CRT) in older HNSCC patients via the SEER-Medicare linked database. We used the SEER-Medicare linked database to evaluate OS in HNSCC patients (Oropharynx, Larynx, Hypopharynx, Nasopharynx) diagnosed over 2005–2011, following FDA approval of cetuximab in combination with radiation therapy (RT) in March 2006. 2135 beneficiaries were identified. Median age was 73 (66–104) years. Primary was oropharynx (61%), hypopharynx (15%), nasopharynx (5%), and larynx (19%). CRT was platinum based in 82% of patients.
