Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Complete response rate of the treatment

    measure of the tumor

    by CT scan or MRI and endoscopy 2 years after the end of treatment

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The second focus of this study is to compare Overall survival between the two arms . It is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause.

    Date of death

Study Arms (2)

Drug and radiation

OTHER

Radiotherapy : 70 grays , fractionization : 2Gy/day, 5 days / week, for 7 weeks . Concurrent administration of Carboplatin: 70 mg/m2/day (day 1 until day 4)and 5FU 600 mg/m2/day (day 1 until day 4). Weeks 1; 4; 7.

EXPERIMENTAL

Induction chemotherapy by Docetaxel 100mg/m2, day 1; cisplatin 100mg/m2, day 1; 5-Fluorouracil 1000mg/m2 (from day 1 to day 5), for a total of three cycles .Those cycles are administrated at day 1; day 22, day43.
