Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: * Intended curative primary (chemo)radiation for patients with locally advanced HNSCC. * Age * 18 years. * WHO performance status 0-2 (see appendix 1) * Histological of cytological confirmation of HNSCC * Locally advanced HNSCC (stage III-IV), TNM classification [8] * Staging procedure should at least include CT-neck, MRI-neck and 18F-FDG-PET-scan * Life expectancy of at least 6 months * Planned for 35 x 2 Gy IMRT eventually with concomitant chemotherapy * Absence of any psychological, familial, sociological or geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule; those conditions should be discussed with the patient before registration in the trial. * Before patient registration/randomisation, written informed consent must be given according to ICH/EU GCP, and national/local regulations.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Tumour hypoxia prior and during the course of radiotherapy/chemoradiation using 18F-FAZA PET-CT for locally advanced HNSCC

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To investigate tumour heterogeneity with 18F-FAZA PET-CT More specifically, the following endpoints will be used: * SUV hypoxia prior to therapy (SUV max, SUV70%) [Research 18F-FAZA PET scan] * SUV hypoxia week 1 of therapy (SUV max, SUV70%) [Research 18F-FAZA PET scan] * SUV hypoxia week 2 of therapy (SUV max, SUV70%) [Research 18F-FAZA PET scan] * SUV hypoxia week 4 of therapy (SUV max, SUV70%) [Research 18F-FAZA PET scan]
