Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Overall survival after treatment with the test tri-therapy (TPF: docetaxel plus cisplatin and 5-FU) or the control treatment (PF: Cisplatin plus 5-FU) followed by chemoradiotherapy.
to detect a significant increase in time to progression in favor of docetaxel plus cisplatin and 5-FU compared to cisplatin plus 5-FU. Tumor assessments (assessed with WHO criteria) had to be performed every 8 weeks until progression

Secondary Endpoints

The main secondary outcome is progression free survival (PFS).
The other secondary endpoints are improvement of local symptoms;time-to-treatment failure;quality of life;
clinical complete response rate (CR) and overall response rate(PR+CR) after chemotherapy and after locoregional therapy(chemoradiotherapy);
