About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma focused on measuring Larynx, hypopharynx

- Age> 18 years and <75 years
- PS 0 or 1 according to WHO
- Tumor volume assessable by RECIST.

- Hematological function: neutrophils ≥1.5 x 109 / L, platelets ≥100 x 109 / l, hemoglobin ≥10 g / dl (or 6.2 mmol / l).
- Hepatic function: normal total bilirubin; AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) ≤ 2.5 x ULN (LNS) of each center; alkaline phosphatase ≤ 5 x LNS.
- Renal function: serum creatinine ≤ 120 mol / l (1.4 mg / dl); if creatinine > 120 mol / l, creatinine clearance should be ≥ 60 ml / min.

- Weight loss less than 10% over the last 3 months
- Patient has given its written consent before any specific procedure of the Protocol.
- Women and men of childbearing age should have accepted a medically effective contraception during the treatment period and at least 6 months after discontinuation of study treatments (Docetaxel, 5-Fluorouracil and Cisplatin. If pregnancy is declared by a patient or partner of a patient, it must be followed to know the evolution of pregnancy.
Exclusion Criteria:
