Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators aim to evaluate the survival benefit from triple combination of induction, concurrent and aduvant chemotherapy versus concurrent chemotherapy alone for high risk locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated with intensity-modulated radiotherapy.


Clinical Trial Description

All eligible patients receive intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with a total dose of 68 to 70 Gy in 33 fractions to the primary tumor. Patients in the experimental arm receive triple therapy of induction, concurrent and adjuvant chemotherapy. Induction chemotherapy consists of docetaxel 75 mg/m², D1 and cisplatin 25 mg/m², D1-3 every 3 weeks for 2 cycles. Concurrent chemotherapy in the experimental arm consists of cisplatin 25 mg/m², D1-3 every 3 weeks and Xeloda 2000mg/m², D1-14 for 3 cycles. Adjuvant chemotherapy consists of Xeloda 2500mg/m², D1-14 for 2 cycles. Concurrent chemotherapy in the control arm consists of cisplatin 100 mg/m², D1 every 3 weeks for 3 cycles.The primary endpoint is failure-free survival (FFS). Secondary end points include overall survival (OS), locoregional relapse-free survival (LRFS), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) and the incidence of grade 3 or higher acute toxicities. All efficacy analyses are conducted in the intention-to-treat population, and the safety population include only patients who receive their randomly assigned treatment. ;
