Check out these two PDF files:

They are about the chemotherapeutic drug 'etoposide', which has 'réaction de radiorappel' as a rare adverse reaction.

Now google for
"radiation recall reaction" + etoposide

Btw, the two PDF files referred to in my Note added at 8 hrs (2015-04-18 14:26:00 GMT) are both patient information leaflets. IOW, the context matches the asker's.
