Filter by:This is a multicenter, single-arm, phase II clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and adverse effect of SBRT combined with programmed death 1 (PD-1) antibody and chemotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with oligometastasis.
This is a prospective platform study that will investigate the outcomes of patients with locoregionally-advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LA-NPC) or recurrent-metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (RM-NPC) who are assigned to treatment arms of different chemotherapy sequencing and intensity based on their pre- and on-treatment plasma EBV DNA results.
Radiotherapy combined with recombinant human endostatin and capecitabine for patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) resistant to induction chemotherapy.
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a head and neck tumor. Studies have shown that more than 70% of patients are diagnosed with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma at the time of initial diagnosis. The 3-year survival rate of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma after chemotherapy is over 90%, but 30% of patients still have recurrence and distant metastasis. Therefore, while improving the level of radiation therapy technology, we should study multidisciplinary comprehensive treatment methods and put forward the biological concept of "cure". Induction chemotherapy can effectively create better radiotherapy conditions for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma, especially for patients with large lesions, improve the treatment response rate, and may reduce the local recurrence and distant metastasis rate. After the end of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, compared with patients who only reached SD, patients who reached CR had a significant survival benefit; Other patients had a reduced rate of distant metastasis, which aroused our interest, although there was no obvious survival benefit. The national multicenter phase II clinical study showed that nitumab combined with radiotherapy significantly improved the 3-year survival rate of patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma compared with radiotherapy alone. According to the previous related research results, nitumab combined with induction chemotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy has a certain effect on nasopharyngeal carcinoma without obvious adverse reactions. However, prospective studies on the short-term efficacy and safety of local advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma combined with induction chemotherapy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy are still lacking (Taisheng ®）。
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma#NPC#is common malignant tumor in China. The incidence of NPC in most parts of the world and the country is less than 1/10 million, but the incidence rate in China's Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian and other southern provinces is as high as 33/10 million. Generally, there are more men than women, with a ratio of 2 ~ 3:1. In high incidence area, nasopharyngeal carcinoma has great harm to middle-aged and young people, and incidence rate and mortality rate increase significantly after 30 years old. 50~60 years old is the highest peak. More than 70% of patients were in advanced stage at the first diagnosis. At present, the main treatment for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma is platinum based neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy. However, recurrence and distant metastasis after standard treatment are the main causes of failure. About 40% of patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma have recurrence and distant metastasis after receiving standard treatment. Therefore, the investigators intend to further explore the improvement of local control and survival rate of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
The primary objective of this study, sponsored by Travera Inc. in Massachusetts, is to validate whether the mass response biomarker has potential to predict response of patients to specific therapies or therapeutic combinations using isolated tumor cells from various specimen formats including malignant fluids such as pleural effusions and ascites, core needle biopsies, fine needle aspirates, or resections.
The primary purpose of this study is to compare balloon Eustachian tuboplasty (BET) combined with tympanostomy tube insertion and simply tympanostomy tube insertion in the treatment of otitis media with effusion (OME) in post-radiotherapy patients on the improvement of subjective symptoms (ear fullness, etc.) and the tympanogram. The secondary purpose is to clarify the effects of BET on the incidence of middle ear infection and slippage of ventilation tube during tube retention, as well as to determine the difference of hearing improvement between the two management methods.
To estimate the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab for stage IVA locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma combined with induction chemotherapy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy, followed by maintenance therapy
The investigators intend to compare Epstein-Barr virus antibody and Epstein-Barr virus DNA screening efficacy in first-degree relatives of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients.
In this exploratory clinical trial, patients with newly diagnosed distant metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma were treated with gemcitabine+ cisplatin+PD-1 inhibitor regimen followed by whole-target radiotherapy (IMRT for local regional lesion, SBRT for distant metastasis) and PD-1 inhibitor long-term maintenance regimen. To investigate the efficacy and safety of "whole target" radiotherapy combined with immuno-maintenance therapy.
