Patients expected to receive a continuous course of radiation as single daily fractions of 2.0 Gy treatment with a cumulative radiation dose of 70 Gy. The radiation can be 2DRT, 3DRT,IMRT etc. Prior to each radiation treatment the patients will receive a one-hour infusion of TK-90 or equivalent TK-90 placebo depending on randomization. 6 Hours after the completion of TK-90 infusion or TK-90 placebo dose, the patients will receive another identical TK-90 or TK-90 placebo treatment depending on randomization. This treatment cycle will continue for 7 weeks. The TK112690 dose will be 45 mg/kg.~24 patients will be randomized equally into 2 different groups: TK-90 treated or TK-90 placebo treated.~Screening must be completed within 2 weeks.~The treatment period for the study is 7 weeks.~Study follow-up will be scheduled post two weeks of completion of last dose of radiation or early termination through up to 4 weeks.~Blinding: The study will be partially blinded. The patient and investigator as well as site personnel will be blinded as to whether TK-90 or TK-90 placebo is administered. The CRO, sponsor, and site pharmacist will know whether the patient was administered active drug or TK-90 placebo.
