Official title: Nedaplatin Versus Cisplatin and Capecitabine Versus Fluorouracil in Induction Chemotherapy Plus Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy for Locoregionally Advanced NPC： a Phase 3, Multicentre, Non-inferiority, Randomised Factorial Trial

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This is a phase 3, multicentre, non-inferiority, randomised factorial trial. The purpose of this study is to study the efficacy and safety of nedaplatin versus cisplatin, and capecitabine versus fluorouracil in induction docetaxel, cisplatin, and fluorouracil (TPF) plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy with cisplatin (P-RT) in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).

Clinical Trial Description

In this study, patients with non-keratinizing NPC and staged III-IVA (except T3-4N0) are randomly assigned to one of the four groups: Group A: TPF+P-RT; Group B: TNF+N-RT; Group C: TPX+P-RT; Group D: TNX+N-RT. In induction chemotherapy, patients will receive docetaxel(60 mg/m2 on day 1), cisplatin or nedaplatin (60 mg/m2 on day 1) and fluorouracil (600 mg/m2 on Days 1 to 5) or capecitabine (625 mg/m2 bid, on Days 1 to 14) every three weeks for three cycles before the radical radiotherapy. Concurrent cisplatin or nedaplatin (100mg/m2 on day 1) was given every three weeks for two cycles during radiotherapy. Patients are stratified according to the treatment centers and stage. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary end points include overall survival (OS), distant failure-free survival (D-FFS), locoregional failure-free survival (LR-FFS), toxic effects, and quality of life (QOL). All efficacy analyses are conducted in the intention-to-treat population, and the safety population include only patients who receive their randomly assigned treatment. ;
