Filter by: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).
This study aimed to investigate the value of a novel strategy of intermittent systematic chemotherapy (ISC) in widely metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (wmNPC) patients who achieve objective response after systematic chemotherapy (SC).
Baseline information (demographics, medical history, etc.), nutritional status at admission and after treatment, depression, dysphagia, and quality of life (QOL) after treatment as well as adverse events are compared. Palliation to delayed dysphagia after radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) continues to be a challenge. Although nasogastric tube feeding (NGT) has been adopted widely, the weaknesses have yet to be improved by another enteral nutrition support mode. This study aims to observe the clinical efficacy of intermittent oro-esophageal tube feeding (IOE) in the treatment of delayed dysphagia after radiotherapy for (NPC). This is a prospective multicenter study with patients with delayed dysphagia after radiotherapy for NPC. Patients enrolled are randomly divided equally into the observation group and the control group. All patients receive conventional care, and the observation group received IOE while the control group received NGT for enteral nutrition support.
This is a prospective, single-arm, phase II clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and adverse effect of SBRT and LDRT combined with programmed death 1 (PD-1) antibody and chemotherapy in recurrent/metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients.

Adjuvant Therapy Versus Endoscopic Surgery Alone in Early-stage Recurrent Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial
The observational clinical study will recruit 50 recurrent and/or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (r/mNPC) patients, to investigate the prediction values of multi-omics technique for the efficacy of chemoradiotherapy combined with immunotherapy.
To evaluate the efficacy of sodium fluoride to preventing radiation caries for patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma receiving radiotherapy.
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a type of head and neck cancer. The last three decades of research in head and neck radiation oncology have largely focused on improvements in survival, which have mostly come at the cost of long term toxicity for surviving patients.This is an observational study that is being done to evaluate the long-term efficacy, learn about the toxicity and quality of life that survivors of nasopharyngeal carcinoma may have following treated with reduced volume intensity modulated radiation therapy.
Nasopharyngeal cancer is common in China, Southeast Asia, and North Africa, and is usually associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. Using EBV specific antibodies or EBV DNA screening can increase the proportion of patients diagnosed with early nasopharyngeal carcinoma from approximately 20% to over 70%. However, the application of nasopharyngeal carcinoma screening in clinical practice is hindered by low positive predictive values, even in areas where the EB virus is prevalent in China, the positive predictive value is only 4.8%. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify new biomarkers or strategies with high sensitivity and positive predictive value for nasopharyngeal carcinoma screening. A study published in the Lancet sub journal 《eClinicalMedicine》 in 2023 showed that a tongue image model based on machine learning can serve as a stable diagnostic method for gastric cancer (AUC=0.89), and has been clinically validated in multiple centers. This study inspires researchers to introduce artificial intelligence machine learning technology into the diagnosis and treatment of nasopharyngeal cancer. In summary, this plan explores the establishment of tongue image machine learning models in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients to help improve the positive predictive value of nasopharyngeal carcinoma screening.
