Clinical Trial Summary

This trial aims to study the role of Adebrelimab combined with induction chemotherapy plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy (IC+CCRT) for high-risk locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma(LANPC).

Description:

The trial plans to enroll patients with stage IVA+T3N2M0 (AJCC 8th) locoregionally-advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LANPC). Patients receive 3 cycles of induction chemotherapy with gemcitabine and cisplatin and concurrent cisplatin-radiation plus Adebrelimab in induction chemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy. Adebrelimab will begin on day 1 of induction chemotherapy and continue every 3 weeks for 3 cycles in induction therapy and for 9 cycles in adjuvant therapy.

12. Has a known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.

13. Any other condition, including symptomatic heart failure, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, active infection requiring systemic therapy, mental illness or domestic/social factors, deemed by the investigator to be likely to interfere with a patient's ability to sign informed consent, cooperate and participate in the study, or interferes with the interpretation of the results.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Failure-free survival (FFS)	calculated from enrolment to the date of locoregional recurrence, distant metastasis, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first.	3 years
Secondary	Overall survival (OS)	calculated from enrolment to the date of death from any cause.	3 years
Secondary	Distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS)	calculated from enrolment to the date of first distant metastasis.	3 years
Secondary	Locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRRFS)	calculated from enrolment to the date of locoregional persistence or 1st locoregional recurrence.	3 years
Secondary	Adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)	Graded according to CTCAE V5.0.	3 years
Secondary	Quality of life (QoL)	The change of QoL from randomization to the start of radiotherapy, the end of radiotherapy, 13-16 weeks after radiotherapy, 2 years and 3 years after randomization. The EORTC QoL questionnaire-C30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)version 3.0 will be used. This questionnaire comprises 30 questions, 24 of which are aggregated into nine multi-question scales, that is, five functioning scales (e.g., physical), three symptom scales (e.g., fatigue) and one global health status scale. The remaining six single-question (e.g., dyspnoea) scales assess symptoms. These 15 scales will be scored according to the official Scoring Manual.	3 years
Secondary	Failure-free survival (FFS) within different subgroups	analyses for FFS will be performed within the following subgroups: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA (=4000copies/ml vs. >4000copies/ml), different Programmed Death-1(PD-L1) expression levels, age, gender, performance status, T category, N category, and stage (III vs. IVA).	3 years
