- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>The MTD will be reached when in a certain step 2/6 or more patients develop<br /><br>grade 3 or more pneumonitis and / or when 3/6 or more patients develop grade 3<br /><br>or more acute esophagitis and /or when 2/6 patients develop grade 3 or more<br /><br>diarrhea, renal or liver toxicity. In case that 1/6 patients develops G4 skin<br /><br>toxicity and / or G4 neuropathy and / or G5 hematological toxicity, another 6<br /><br>patients will be enrolled at that dose level. If again 1/6 patients develops<br /><br>the latter toxicity, DLT will be reached.<br /><br>Furthermore, the MTD will be reached when at maximum one patient may have an at<br /><br>3 months post-treatment persistent G3 or more other toxicity.<br /><br><br /><br>The decision to move to another dose-level of vinorelbine will be taken when<br /><br>the minimum follow-up of each patient in a particular dose-level will be 3<br /><br>months post-radiation.</p><br>
