Is it essential to wait one week after loading dose of erbitux to start RT for head and neck cancer?
In the post-op setting, would you delay 1 week even if it took them out of the 6 weeks post-op window? Meaning the loading dose of erbitux was given during week 6 post-op.

I would start RT if it means you're going to risk delaying RT start window. Another question is, why are you giving Erbitux for post-op treatment? Can you use another agent?
