NCT03015727

Brief Summary

In this study, the investigators aim to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) and side effects of radiotherapy (RT) and concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients with a satisfactory tumor response (complete response or partial response) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Progress Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS means assignment to the date of any local or distant progress of the disease.

    3 years after the inception assignment

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Overall Survival (OS)

    3 years and 5 years after the inception of the assignment

  • Adverse Events

    Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 100 days and every 3 months thereafter for 5 years

Study Arms (2)

IC+RT group

EXPERIMENTAL

3 cycles of TP neoadjuvant chemotherapy at day1,22 and 43 with docetaxel 75mg/m2 and cisplatin 75mg/m2. And then radiation using IMRT/TOMO without concurrent chemotherapy.

Drug: DocetaxelDrug: CisplatinRadiation: IMRT/TOMO

IC+CCRT group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

3 cycles of TP neoadjuvant chemotherapy at day1,22 and 43 with docetaxel 75mg/m2 and cisplatin 75mg/m2.And then chemoradiation using IMRT/TOMO with 2 cycles of cisplatin concurrent chemotherapy at 100mg/m2.
