Filter by:This is a multi-center, randomized, open-label, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anti-PD-1 antibody Penpulimab (AK105) combined with chemotherapy ± anlotinib hydrochloride in the first-line treatment of patients with advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
This is an opene-label, single center, randomized prospective pilot study to compare the efficacy of weekly versus triweekly fosaprepitant regimens for the prevention of nausea and emesis during concurrent chemoradiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).
This study is a prospective phase II trial which is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of IMRT combined with concurrent chemotherapy and anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody in locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma with induced chemotherapy resistance. Eligibility criteria include histologically confirmed locally advanced NPC according to the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) Staging System (the eighth edition); Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1; at least one measurable lesion based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria 1.1; normal complete blood count, normal hepatic function and normal renal function. Exclusion criteria include previous radiotherapy, a history of any other type of malignancy; pregnancy or lactation; allergy to anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody; obvious dysfunction of liver, renal, cardiac or lung function; uncontrolled infection; systemic metastasis or distant metastasis; patients with severe gastrointestinal diseases, and patients with mental disorders affecting patient participation in trial judgement. The full-set pretreatment evaluation will be performed to every patient. All patients in this study will receive intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). The primary endpoints of this study is progression-free survival (PFS) and adverse events (AE) rate.
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is the highest reported otorhinolaryngological malignancy reported in Malaysia affecting predominantly male adults between 40-60 years old [1, 2]. Radiation therapy (RT) has been coined as the mainstay treatment owing to its' radiosensitive properties [1, 3]. Radiation-induced DNA damage impairs proper cell division, resulting in cell death or senescence of cells that attempt to divide, particularly useful in killing malignant cells. However, radiation doses to the salivary glands cause loss of saliva producing acinar cells which ultimately hampers production of saliva in NPC patients post radiation [4]. This leads to progressive loss of salivary gland function causing xerostomia symptoms [5]. This study aims to compare the effects of two mouthwashes in the treatment of xerostomia.
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) differs from other head and neck malignancies terms of its epidemiology, pathology, and treatment outcome. Although NPC is a radiosensitive tumor, distant recurrence remains a clinical challenge. Therefore, the investigators conducted this study to prospectively investigate the role of imaging and blood biomarkers in predicting the prognosis of NPC patients.

This is a retrospective real-world study to evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of modified reduce-volume target IMRT in the treatment of patients with non-metastatic NPC
The study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of apatinib mesylate tablets combined with PD-1 in the treatment of recurrent and metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma after IMRT with concurrent chemotherapy,including The Overall Response Rate (ORR), Progression-free survival (PFS),Overall survival (OS),and Toxicities.
This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, phase II study to evaluate the anti-tumor activity, PK and immunogenicity of AK104 in patients with metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma who have progressed after at least 2 prior lines of systemic chemotherapy (of which one of them must be platinum-based chemotherapy).
Study results from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) usually have been found not adequately inform practice. A RCT is optimized to determine efficacy, while real-world study is conducted in a routine care setting aimed to determine effectiveness. Thus, it is necessary to evaluate the pragmatism of clinical trials for a better understanding of the external generalizability. Nonetheless, comparative pragmatic features of RCTs and real-world studies still lack well elucidation. By capitalizing on a nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC)-specific big-data, real-world database and individual patient data extracted from three landmark RCTs, investigators conducted the direct comparison of NPC cohorts receiving same treatment strategy in clinical trial versus real-world settings, and examined the comparative pragmatic features and their influences on survival outcomes, safety profile, and the probability of returning to society.
