Brief Summary

RATIONALE

  • Radiotherapy is the primary therapeutic strategy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
  • Radiotherapy may cause adverse effect such as xerostomia and mucositis.
  • Amifostine has the ability of protecting the normal tissue but also has some side effects. PURPOSE
  • This phase II trial is to study the protecting effect and safety of different Amifostine regimens in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
