Brief Summary
The study population has locally advanced or metastatic bronchial or head and neck cancer. This study assesses the value of concomitant chemo/radiotherapy with carboplatin daily during metastatic radiotherapy versus radiotherapy alone. The realization of a systemic treatment during the radiotherapy could make it possible to obtain a benefit on the control of the evolution of the metastases and thus of the pains generated, as well as on the quality of life of the patients. In addition, a benefit in overall survival is possible.
