Study Arms (2)

Group A: radical chemoradiotherapy group;

SHAM COMPARATOR

Concurrent chemotherapy (2 courses): Lipusu (T) + Cisplatin (DDP) scheme: T 135mg/m2 ivgtt, d1, 3week\*2cycles; DDP 75mg/m2 ivgtt, d2, 3week\*2cycles; Radiotherapy scheme: intensity modulated radiotherapy PTV50-54Gy, PGTV 56-60Gy, conventional fractionation.
