Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Locoregional control (Tumor recurrency is assessed by scheduled CT (of the thorax and upper abdomen)5-7 years

Tumor recurrency is assessed by scheduled CT (of the thorax and upper abdomen ) every 3 months combined with PET/CT every 9 months or if occurrence is clinically suspected. Suspicion of tumor relapse local, regional or distant should be verified by biopsy. Date of detected recurrence is the date of the imaging modality suspecting relapse. The patient will be censured at death without local relapse.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression free survival15 years

Time from randomization to date of progression, death, or occurence of metastatic disease

Toxicity (graded after CTCAE 4.0 assessed by physician)10 years

Acute and late toxicity graded after CTCAE 4.0 assessed by physician at scheduled follow-up visits

Survival15 years

Time from randomization to exact date of death of any cause.
