Active clinical trials for "Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma"

The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of a combination of Camrelizumab and Apatinib regimen in treating recurrent or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients who have failed first-line platinum-based chemotherapy.

Main purpose of this study is through comparing with the external control, evaluation of autologous D - CIK cells immunotherapy to finish after conventional treatment of liver cancer, renal clear cell carcinoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, lung cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer patients with the clinical efficacy and safety of study population, including clinical liver, renal clear cell carcinoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, lung cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer after conventional treatment (surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy) patients.The primary outcome measures were overall survival and progression-free survival, while the secondary outcome measures were overall response rate and quality of life.

This is a multi-center, randomized, open-label, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anti-PD-1 antibody Penpulimab (AK105) combined with chemotherapy ± anlotinib hydrochloride in the first-line treatment of patients with advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

At the initial diagnosis of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma, a considerable proportion of patients have developed distant metastasis, forming subclinical lesions. Nowadays, with the advent of intensity modulated radiotherapy, the local-regional area is under well controlled. However, distant metastasis is still the main cause of failure in treatment of stage N2-3 nasopharyngeal carcinoma.The severe toxicity of synchronous chemotherapy and the dose intensity of single drug is not enough to effectively control existing subclinical lesions. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy with sufficient intensity (four cycles) can possible effectively kill subclinical lesions prior to the initiation of concurrent chemoradiotherapy, thereby reducing distant metastasis of stage N2-3 nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Meanwhile, four cycles of chemotherapy have been shown to be well tolerated in other tumors. In conclusion, 4-cycle neoadjuvant chemotherapy in combination with radiotherapy is expected to further control the distant metastasis rate of N2-3 nasopharyngeal carcinoma and improve the survival rate.

The purpose of this study is to compare induction chemotherapy (docetaxel+cisplatin+fluorouracil) plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy with concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), in order to confirm the value of induction chemotherapy in NPC patients.

The investigators will evaluate weekly docetaxel plus 3-weekly cisplatin regimen as the first-line therapy for recurrent of metastatic nasophayngeal cancer

This study is a multicenter trial.The primary objective is to estimate short-term efficacy and acute toxicities of nedaplatin to the combination of docetaxel in neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by nedaplatin in concurrent chemoradiotherapy, compared to cisplatin to the combination of docetaxel in neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by cisplatin in concurrent chemoradiotherapy for patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Secondary objectives are to evaluate the overall survival, the distant metastases free survival, and disease free survival of patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated with these regimens.Furthermore,analyze the cost-effectiveness of the regimens.

Objectives: Primary objective - To determine the efficacy of Foscan-PDT compared with Brachytherapy for recurrent or persistent NPC, as determined by macroscopic clinical examination, CT scan and biopsy. The primary endpoint is complete tumour response at 6 months. Secondary objective: To determine the response rates, e.g. presence of tumour on endoscopy, time to progression and overall survival in patients treated with Foscan-PDT compared with brachytherapy To determine the quality of life, as derived from the University of Washington Quality of Life questionnaire in patients treated with Foscan-PDT compared with brachytherapy To evaluate the safety of Foscan-PDT compared with brachytherapy in terms of adverse events and serious adverse events.

The purpose of this study is to collect outcomes information to see what effects photon/proton beam radiation has on nasopharynx cancer.

The objectives of this clinical study are threefold: To compare the benefits in cancer control and survival obtained from adding induction-concurrent chemotherapy to radiation with those from adding concurrent-adjuvant chemotherapy to radiation. To test whether replacing fluorouracil with Xeloda in combining with cisplatin (PF or PX, respectively) in the chemotherapy plan will maintain or improve further the chemotherapy benefits while reducing the duration of hospital stay. To see if accelerated fractionation radiotherapy can improve the outcome of patients as compared with conventional fractionation radiotherapy.
