Active clinical trials for "Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma"

This is an open label, single arm, non-randomized, multi-site, phase 2 clinical trial of neoadjuvant pembrolizumab in combination with gemcitabine-cisplatin for 2 cycles,followed by concurrent pembrolizumab-cisplain-radiation, and then maintainence pembrolizumab monotherpy given every 3 weeks for a total treatment duration of 12 months, in previously untreated stage IVA ( UICC 8 th Edition ) nasopharyngeal cancer(NPC).

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT) has been recommended in the treatment of locoregionally-advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), with docetaxel, cisplatin (DDP) and 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) shown to be an effective regimen. Capecitabine is the precursor drug of 5-fluorouracil, and has been used in replace of 5-fluorouracil in NPC patients. Nab-paclitaxel (Nab-PTX) is a novel albumin-bound paclitaxel with a superior therapeutic index to docetaxel. We sought to find out the efficacy of Nab-PTX in three-drug triplet (Nab-PTX, DDP and capecitabine) and decide the best administration dose of Nab-PTX.

This is a phase 3, multi-center, randomized controlled trial, with the purpose to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of PD-1 blockade (toripalimab) combined with the de-intensification radical chemoradiotherapy sparing concurrent cisplatin (i.e., toripalimab plus induction chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy alone) in high-risk locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

This phase II trial studies how well nivolumab and chemoradiotherapy works in treating patients with stage II-IVB nasopharyngeal cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may block tumor growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Chemoradiotherapy is the combination of chemotherapy and radiation therapy and may prevent the cancer from spreading when combined with nivolumab. Giving nivolumab and chemoradiotherapy may work better in treating patients with stage II-IVB nasopharyngeal cancer.

This is a phase 3, open-label, multicenter, randomized controlled phase III clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ulinastatin, a kind of protease inhibitor, in the treatment of radiation-induced acute oral mucositis in localregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) patients treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy(CCRT). To Explore a new and efficient way to reduce the incidence and severity of radiation-induced acute oral mucositis.

The purpose of this study is to preliminarily evaluate the efficacy and safety of chemotherapy plus subsequent loco-regional radiotherapy combined with toripalimab for the de novo metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

The purpose of this study is to preliminarily evaluate anti-tumor activity of a Recombinant Humanized Anti-PD-1 Monoclonal Antibody for Infusion (JS001) in treating advanced gastric adenocarcinoma, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D)

The study aims to describe the avidity of somatostatin receptors in locally advanced, metastatic and locally recurrent nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) and to determine the proportion of NPC patients with high somatostatin receptor density that may benefit from future somatostatin targeted therapeutic trial plans. The investigators also aim to determine the presence of somatostatin receptors in other EBV related cancers.

This is a single-center diagnostic accuracy study, with the purpose to define the criteria to diagnose small cervical lymph node metastases in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma by combining MRI scanning and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography and evaluate the diagnostic performance of the criteria.

This is a single-center, self-controlled, evaluator-blinded prospective study, which applies pressurized gloves and foot caps to prevent paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
