Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Experimental: Boost Radiation Dose Level 0Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
If the 2 dose limiting toxicities are documented at dose level 1, therapy will be de-escalated to Dose level 0 defined below. Dose level 0: 2.2 Gy X 25 fractions = 55 Gy
Group II: Boost Radiation: Dose level 3Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
2.8 Gy x 25 fractions = 70 Gy
Group III: Boost Radiation: Dose level 2Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
2.6 Gy X 25 fractions = 65 Gy
Group IV: Boost Radiation: Dose Level 1Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
2.4 Gy X 25 fractions = 60 Gy
