Filter by:The study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apatinib for adjuvant treatment of High-risk metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma after IMRT with concurrent chemotherapy,including progression-free survival (PFS),evaluation of drug safety.,and overall survival (OS),distant metastasisfree survival (DMFS),locoregional relapse-free survival (LRRFS),and quality of life score (QoL).
Through randomized controlled phase III multicenter clinical trials, GP induction chemotherapy vs TPF regimen adjuvant chemotherapy combined with DDP concurrent chemoradiotherapy for the treatment of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma: the efficacy, toxicity and quality of life, and further improvement Survival rate and improve the quality of life.
This is a Phase III randomized controlled multi-center trial comparing anlotinib plus Gemcitabine/Cisplatin with placebo plus Gemcitabine/Cisplatin in previous untreated patients with recurrent/metastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, in order to verify the efficacy and security of anlotinib in mNPC patients.
Tomotherapy is a new radiation planning and delivery technology which may allow for delivery of higher radiation doses with less damage to normal tissues. The investigators aim to compare the treatment efficacy and quality of life between tomotherapy and intensity-modulated radiotherapy for patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma
To investigate the molecular mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine constitution, the investigators proposed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase II trial to recruit 120 patients with nasopharyngeal cancer. Next generation sequencing, immune repertoire, gut microbiota, traditional Chinese medicine constitution and tongue diagnosis would be examined before/after 16 weeks of treatment of Danggui Buxue Tang from the beginning of concurrent chemoradiotherapy in this project. The correlation between different examinations would be analyzed to investigate the molecular mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine constitution. Disease survival, recurrence, and quality of life would be also followed up for two years to evaluate the benefit of Danggui BuxueTang.
Through randomized controlled phase III multicenter clinical trials, TPF induction chemotherapy vs. PF regimen adjuvant chemotherapy concurrently Radiotherapy and chemotherapy for the treatment of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma: the efficacy, toxicity and quality of life, and further improvement Survival rate and improve the quality of life.
Radiation-associated carotid vasculopathy is a common late sequelae in patients with head and neck cancer, which correlates with the incidence of stroke. Currently, little is known about the incidence of radiation-associated carotid vasculopahty in the context of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). The aim of this study is to determine whether IMRT will increase the incidence of carotid vasculopathy in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).
This study is aimed to investigate the short-term efficacy and toxicities of local advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) treated with TPF regimen induction chemotherapy combined with nimotuzumab concurrent radiotherapy and cisplatin concurrent chemoradiotherapy.
Radiation-induced temporal lobe injury (TLI) is usually devastating to patients; however, there is a poor understanding of TLI in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients treated with IMRT. Knowledge of the dose tolerance of the TL is essential, in order to predict the safety of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) treatment plans. In our previous studies, D1cc (the dose to 1ml of the TL volume) and Dmax (the maximum point dose) were the significant predictors of TLI development. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of dose constraints based on D1cc and Dmax for the temporal lobes following IMRT for NPC.
Due to the increase of tumor control rate and survival rate in era of IMRT, the role of the seventh edition of UICC/AJCC staging system in predicting prognosis is becoming weaker and inaccurate. Therefore, we put forward a new staging for the clinical staging of NPC in the era of IMRT without changing the current T, N, M staging definition of the 7th of the UICC/AJCC staging system. We call this new stage "Cooperative Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Group" stage, namely CNG stage. In CNG stage, the clinical stages were reduced to three stages, namely, CNG I stage includes T1-3N0-1M0 and T1-2N2M0, CNG II stage includes T3N2M0, T4N0-2M0 and TanyN3M0, CNG III stage includes TanyNanyM1. For CNG I stage, the IMRT alone is sufficient. If EBV-DNA copies is more than 0 copy/ml, concurrent chemoradiotherapy will be given. For CNG II stage, patients can benefit from combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy. For CNG III stage, patients are recommended for systemic chemotherapy plus local radiotherapy (primary focus, neck drainage area and distant metastasis). This year, UICC/AJCC has proposed an eighth edition of NPC staging system. The eighth version is mainly changed in the definition and refinement of the anatomic location compared with the seventh edition. This is different from our new CNG staging concept. Therefore, CNG staging and its treatment strategy was used as the experimental group, and the eighth edition of UICC/AJCC staging with NCCN guiding treatment was used as the control group. The open and randomized controlled clinical study was conducted. The purpose of this study was to evaluate in the era of IMRT, CNG staging can be better than UICC/AJCC eighth clinical staging for treatment decision-marking and selection of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and differentiating differences in prognosis in each clinical stage. The survival results based on CNG staging and its treatment are not inferior to the survival results of the NCCN guide therapy based on the eighth edition UICC/AJCC staging, to avoid chemotherapy for some of the patients, and to improve the outcome of metastatic patients.
