OTHER

1. Induction chemotherapy: three cycles of intravenous docetaxel 60 mg/m² on day 1, intravenous nedaplatin 60 mg/m² on day 1, and continuous intravenous fluorouracil 600 mg/m² per day from day 1 to day 5, every 3 weeks 2. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy: three cycles of 100 mg/m² nedaplatin every 3 weeks, concurrently with intensity-modulated radiotherapy 3. Radiotherapy: radical intense modulated radiation therapy

Drug: Docetaxel, nedaplatin, fluorouracilRadiation: IMRTDrug: Nedaplatin

Interventions

Induction chemotherapy. Docetaxel 60 mg/m2 intravenous day1. Nedaplatin 60 mg/m2 intravenous day1. Fluorouracil 3000 mg/m2 continuous intravenous infusion 120 hours from day1. Every 21 days, 3 cycles.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 65 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with newly histologically confirmed non-keratinizing nasopharyngeal carcinoma, including WHO II or III
  • Original clinical staged as III-IVa (except T3-4N0) according to the 8th edition American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system
  • No evidence of distant metastasis (M0)
  • Age between 18-65
  • WBC≥4×10\^9/ l, platelet ≥ 100×10\^9/ l and hemoglobin ≥ 90g/l
  • With normal liver function test (TBIL、ALT、AST ≤ 2.5×uln)
  • With normal renal function test (creatinine ≤ 1.5×uln or ccr ≥ 60ml/min)
  • Satisfactory performance status: KARNOFSKY scale (KPS) \> 70
  • Patients must give signed informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Treatment with palliative intent
  • The primary tumor or lymph node has undergone chemotherapy or surgery (except operations for diagnostic purposes)
  • Prior malignancy except adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, in situ cervical cancer
  • History of previous radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or surgery (except diagnostic) to the primary tumor or nodes
  • History of previous radiotherapy
  • Pregnancy or lactation
  • Any severe intercurrent disease, which may bring unacceptable risk or affect the compliance of the trial, for example, unstable cardiac disease requiring treatment, acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or other respiratory illness requiring admission to hospital, active hepatitis, and mental disturbance.
