Study Arms (2)

Induction chemotherapy(IC)+IMRT

EXPERIMENTAL

Induction chemotherapy for two cycles, the patients with complete response will receive 60 Gy to the gross target volume of nasopharynx, partial response 64 Gy, and the absence of response will receive concurrent chemoradiotherapy as the same as CCRT arm

Drug: DocetaxelDrug: CisplatinRadiation: IMRT

Concurrent chemoradiotherapy(CCRT)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

cisplatin 100mg/m2 IV on d1 of each 21 days for two cycles at least and 70 Gy radiotherapy

Drug: CisplatinRadiation: IMRT

Interventions

Induction CT: Docetaxel 75mg/m2 IV on d1, every 21 days for two cycles

Also known as: Taxotere
Induction chemotherapy(IC)+IMRT

Induction chemotherapy:cisplatin 75mg/m2 IV on d1,every 21 days for two cycles.Concurrent chemoradiotherapy:cisplatin 100mg/m2 IV on d1 of each 21 days for at least two cycles during 70 Gy radiotherapy

Also known as: DDP
Concurrent chemoradiotherapy(CCRT)Induction chemotherapy(IC)+IMRT
IMRTRADIATION

IC+IMRT arm:the patients with complete response will receive 60Gy to the gross target volume of nasopharynx, partial response 64Gy, and the absence of response or stable will receive 70Gy. CCRT arm: 70Gy to the gross target volume of nasopharynx.

Also known as: intensity-modulated radiotherapy
