Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Description of the cellular immune status via flow-cytometrie from collected blood samples
Blood samples are taken on the days of simulation-CT, first and third week of the radiation therapy, as well as before surgery.
Description of the cellular immune status on tissue samples ussing komplex immunohistochemie
Tissue samples are taken as incisional biopsie as well as in the tumor tissue after the surgery
