Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx or hypopharynx (excluding the retro-cricoarytenoid region and the posterior wall), histologically proven, locally advanced requiring total (pharyngo)-laryngectomy provided that the latter is feasible straight away and does not require circular hypopharyngectomy: -T2 not accessible to supra-cricoid partial laryngectomy or not, -T3 without massive infiltration of the endolarynx by a transglottic lesion, -N0 to N2c -Without distant metastasis -Without associated or previous cancer
- •Patient not previously treated
- •Tumor volume evaluable according to RECIST
- •Absence of distant metastasis, confirmed by chest CT, abdominal ultrasound (or CT) in the event of abnormal liver function, and bone scintigraphy in the event of local symptoms.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Transglottic T3 with massive infiltration of the hemilarynx or T4 with massive cartilaginous lysis or tumor of the retrocricoarytenoid region or the posterior hypopharyngeal wall
- •Tumor requiring immediate tracheotomy.
- •Tumor immediately accessible to partial surgery
- •Tumor requiring circular hypopharyngectomy
- •N3 lymph node lesion
- •Patients with AST or ALT > 1.5 LNS associated with alkaline phosphatase > 2.5 x LNS will not be eligible for the trial
- •Clinical alteration of hearing function
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes

Survival with preservation of laryngeal and pharyngoesophageal function. The following events are considered: death, total laryngectomy, tracheotomy at 24 months, gastric tube at 24 months, local recurrence not accessible to salvage treatment. The causes of death will be specified
Secondary Outcomes
- Overall survival. Events are considered to be: death from any cause.
- Survival without recurrence. Events are considered: death from any cause, local recurrence, lymph node recurrence, distant metastases
- Locoregional control. Events are considered: local recurrence, lymph node recurrence
- Metastasis-free survival and incidence of metastases
- Survival with preservation of laryngeal and pharyngoesophageal function according to dynamic swallowing videoscopy
- Laryngeal preservation. Total laryngectomy is considered an event
- Response rate to induction chemotherapy
- Toxicity of the treatments under study. By distinguishing between acute and late toxicities
- Feasibility and morbidity of salvage surgery: evaluation of the number of recurrences that could be successfully treated by salvage surgery and description of the operative consequences.
- Qualité de la fonction laryngée et pharyngo-oesophagienne. Seront évaluées par échelle qualitative : la voix, la déglutition (y compris le type d’alimentation) et la respiration au repos et à l’effort. La qualité de la réhabilitation des patients laryngectomisés sera également analysée.
