Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Progression-free survival (PFS) assessed by the independent review committee (IRC)

    Progression-Free Survival PFS is defined as the time from randomization to progression or death

    Throughout the study period, up to approximately 2 years

  • Overall survival (OS)

    Overall survival (OS) is defined as the duration from the date of diagnosis to death or last follow-up, with no restriction on the cause of death.

    Throughout the study period, up to approximately 2 years

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Objective response rate (ORR) assessed by the investigator and IRC

    Throughout the study period, up to approximately 2 years

  • Disease control rate (DCR) assessed by the investigator and IRC

    Throughout the study period, up to approximately 2 years

  • Duration of Response (DOR) assessed by the investigator and IRC

    Throughout the study period, up to approximately 2 years

  • Progression-free survival (PFS) assessed by the investigator

    Throughout the study period, up to approximately 2 years

  • Frequency and severity of AE (NCI CTCAE 5.0)

    Throughout the study period, up to approximately 2 years

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Experimental group

EXPERIMENTAL

Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Willing to participate in the study and sign the informed consent form (ICF).
  • Age ≥ 18 years.
  • Nasopharyngeal carcinoma confirmed by histopathology.
  • Recurrent metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma that has previously failed treatment with first-line platinum-containing standard regimens and/or second-line standard regimens.
  • At least one evaluable lesion at baseline according to RECIST 1.1 criteria; The area should not have received previous radiotherapy, or there is evidence that the lesion has made definite progress after radiotherapy.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score 0-1.
  • Toxic reaction caused by any previous antitumor treatment has recovered to grade 1 or below (except for alopecia, pigmentation, or other toxicities deemed by the investigator to pose no safety risk to the patient).
  • Adequate main organ function.
  • Female patients must have a negative blood HCG test (except for menopause and hysterectomy), Female patients of childbearing age and their partners must use effective contraception (For example: combination hormones \[containing estrogen and progesterone\] to suppress ovulation, progestogen contraception to suppress ovulation, intrauterine device, intrauterine hormone release system, bilateral tubal ligation, vasectomy, avoidance of sexual activity, etc) during the trial and within 6 months of the end of the last dose.
  • Male patients and their partners agree to use one of the contraceptive measures described in Article 9.

You may not qualify if:

  • Severe allergy to mitoxantrone or liposome; Previous severe, unexpected reactions to fluorouracil or known allergy to fluorouracil or to any excipients of capecitabine.
  • Previous treatment regimens containing capecitabine for recurrent or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma; Patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma have previously experienced disease recurrence or metastasis during or within 6 months of use of capecitabine.
  • Patients with brain or meningeal metastasis.
  • Expected lifetime \< 3 months.
  • Patients with active hepatitis B, hepatitis C or HIV.
  • Active bacterial infection, fungal infection, viral infection, or interstitial pneumonia requiring systemic therapy within 1 week prior to the first administration of the study drug.
  • Antitumor therapy such as chemotherapy, small-molecule inhibitors, immunotherapy (such as interleukin, interferon, or thymosin) within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter but at least 2 weeks) prior to initial administration of the study drug; Received Chinese patent drugs with antitumor activity within 14 days prior to administration.
  • Have received other investigational drugs within 4 weeks prior to initial administration.
  • Patients had major surgery within 3 months prior to initial dosing or plan to have major surgery during the study period.
  • Severe embolic events, such as cerebrovascular accidents (including transient ischemic attacks) and pulmonary embolism, occurred within 6 months prior to screening.
  • Other active malignant tumors within 2 years prior to the first study drug administration.
  • Abnormal heart function, including:
  • Long QTc syndrome or QTc interval \>480 ms; Complete left bundle branch block, second-degree or third-degree atrioventricular block; Severe, uncontrolled arrhythmias requiring medication; History of chronic congestive heart failure with NYHA ≥ grade 3; Cardiac ejection fraction less than 50% or lower than the lower limit of the laboratory test range within 6 months prior to screening; CTCAE version 5.0 ≥ grade 3 valvular heart disease; Uncontrolled hypertension (defined as measuring systolic blood pressure \>160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \>90 mmHg when medically controlled); Myocardial infarction, unstable angina, history of severe pericardial disease, ECG evidence of acute ischemic or active conduction system abnormalities within 6 months prior to screening.
  • Prior treatment with doxorubicin or other anthracyclines and the cumulative doxorubicin doses greater than 350 mg/m\^2 (anthracycline equivalent: 1 mg doxorubicin = 2 mg epirubicin = 2 mg daunorubicin = 0.5 mg normethoxydaunorubicin = 0.45 mg mitoxantrone).
  • Pregnant or lactating women.
