- 1. Hopital Bretonneau, 37 - Tours (France)
Description
After exclusive irradiation the prognosis of advanced oropharynx carcinomas is bad. To improve the response to the tumoral treatment, a test in phase II was made, associating irradiation and concomitant chemotherapy. The results show that this association allow a high rate of complete remissions at the end of the treatment, but with a severe digestive and hematological toxicity
