Total dose of radiotherapy will be 50 Gy administered in daily session of 200 cGy. Radiotherapic treatment will not be longer than 6 weeks.

All patients will receive 1650 mg/m2 by mouth, per day (825 mg/m2 twice a day (p.o. bid) for 35 days.

Tissue samples must be analysed to determinate the human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)by FISH technical.
