NCT03637634

Brief Summary

The Children and Adolescents Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Survivor Study will investigate the long-term effects of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and its associated therapies. A prospective and retrospective cohort study will be conducted through a multi-institutional collaboration. This project will study children and adolescents exposed to specific therapeutic modalities, including radiation, chemotherapy, and/or surgery, who are at increased risk of late-occurring adverse health outcomes. A group of sibling controls will be identified and data collected for comparison purposes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall survival(OS)

    The OS was defined as the duration from the date of random assignment to the date of death from any cause or censored at the date of the last follow-up.

    5 years

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Progress-free survival(PFS)

    5 years

  • Locoregional failure-free survival(LRFS)

    5 years

  • Distant metastasis-free survival(DMFS)

    5 years

  • Short-term toxic effects assessed by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (version 4.0)

    3 months

Other Outcomes (9)

  • Long-term toxicities

    Through study completion, an average of half year

  • Long-term toxicities

    Through study completion, an average of half year

  • Long-term toxicities

    Through study completion, an average of half year

  • +6 more other outcomes

Study Arms (2)

NPC survivors

Survivors of NPC, diagnosed under 21 years of age, between 1990 and 2030. This project will study children and young adults exposed to specific therapeutic modalities, including radiation, chemotherapy, and/or surgery, for an increased risk of late-occurring events associated with excess mortality and morbidity.

Sibling Controls

A group of sibling controls will be identified to provide: (1) the ability to make direct comparisons with the survivors, (2) data on outcomes in a non-cancer population, and (3) additional comparison group to determine the consistency of findings between data sources.
