Time frame: After 1 week and 4 weeks after the end of treatment (so 8 weeks of treatment)
The difference between the initial (inclusion) score and the best score based on EORTC QLQ-FA12 questionnaire (physical fatigue dimension) between assessments at 1 week (S9) and 4 weeks (S12) after the end of treatment) will be calculated
