Active Comparator
B: 66Gy/33F+Navelbine oral 150 mg q3w
A: 60Gy/30F+Navelbine oral 150 mg q3w
Navelbine oral 150 mg of Vinorelbine administered in 3 weekly doses a week for 6-6½ weeks concomitant with curatively intended irradiation to 66 Gy (2 Gy x 30, 5 F á weeks). Radiation technique: 3D, 4D og VMAT techniques. The patients all had 2 cycles of carboplatin and vinorelbine before randomization
