Filter by:Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) occurs at a high frequency in southern China, northern Africa, and Alaska, with a reported incidence of 30 cases per 100 000 in Guangdong Province. Endoscopic examination and biopsy are the main methods used for detection and diagnosis of NPC. Early NPC patients achieve favourable prognoses after concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy in compassion with advanced NPC patients. Here, the investigators focused on the utility of artificial intelligence to detect early NPC, which based on white light imaging (WLI) and Narrow-band imaging (NBI) nasoendoscopic examination. Having access to this unique population provides an unprecedented opportunity to investigate the effect of intelligent system on diverse nasopharyngeal lesions detection and develop a novel Computer-Aided Diagnosis System.
The prospective observational clinical study will recruit 50 metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (mNPC) patients, detecting patient's chemosensitivity with the circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from peripheral blood and prdicting patient's treatment efficacy with CTCs dynamic change.
The present study is designed as a two arm randomized trial to evaluate the impact of accelerated radiotherapy delivered by image guided radiotherapy with rapid arc technique in carcinoma nasopharynx. The study will evaluate a pure acceleration schedule of 6 fractions per week with concurrent chemotherapy and without any radiotherapy dose escalation.The control arm will receive standard chemoradiotherapy using image guided radiotherapy with rapid arc technique.
The purpose of this study is to compare the toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of proton or photon combined with carbon ion radiotherapy for newly diagnosed nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Participants will be randomized to 2 arms. Arm 1, participants received photon combined with carbon ion radiotherapy group, Arm 2, participants received proton combined with carbon ion radiotherapy.
Researchers conduct the clinical trial (gemcitabine combined with cisplatin induction chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy with gemcitabine for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma) to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of gemcitabine in patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of Toripalimab Combined with GP Regimen Chemotherapy Versus GP Regimen Chemotherapy for Primary Metastatic NPC.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infections is known to be a high-risk factor to induce cervical cancers. To date, EBV-related nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is still a major concern in east Asia, especially in China. Concurrent therapies for NPC have limited response rate and high chance of relapse. However, EBV-induced cancers provided an ideal target for T cell-based immunotherapy due to the non-self origins. Engineered T cells bearing a TCR (TCR-T) that can specifically recognize the presented EBV-epitope become a viable approach to treat this type of cancer. Though engineered T therapies have been well-recognized in hematological cancers, solid cancer treatment has been a major hurdle due to the immune-suppressive tumor microenvironment. Cytokine seemed to represent the ideal candidate for tumor immunotherapy, due to its ability to activate both innate (NK cells) and adaptive immunities. therefore, TCR-T cells armed with a cytokine -secretion element could further enhance the efficacy of TCR-T in solid cancers.
Main purpose of this study is through comparing with the external control, evaluation of autologous D - CIK cells immunotherapy to finish after conventional treatment of liver cancer, renal clear cell carcinoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, lung cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer patients with the clinical efficacy and safety of study population, including clinical liver, renal clear cell carcinoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, lung cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer after conventional treatment (surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy) patients.The primary outcome measures were overall survival and progression-free survival, while the secondary outcome measures were overall response rate and quality of life.
The treatment of distant metastasis is a key challenge for nasopharyngeal carcinoma because of poor outcomes, among which, chemotherapy is the cornerstone. However, many studies reported the use of different chemotherapy regimens to prolong the survival of metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma, while few of them focused on how to reduce the side effects of chemotherapy or improve the life quality of patients. Thus, we sought to find an efficient chemotherapy regimen with high tolerance according to the characteristics of chemotherapy drugs, that is, to explore the efficacy and safety of platinum plus 5-fluorouracil with continuous intravenous infusion at a low dose for a long term.
This is a phase III randomized clinical trial of definitive radiotherapy plus EGFR blocker nimotuzumab versus radiotherapy plus cisplatin(CCRT) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients with favorable response to induction chemotheray(IC), determining whether radiotherapy combined with nimotuzumab was non-inferior to CCRT and may provide new evidence for individualized comprehensive treatment of locoregionally advanced NPC.
