Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: The first diagnosis of patients with advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma or recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients treated with radiation and chemotherapy, and patients are not suitable for local treatment (mainly refers to the measures of anti-tumor treatment, including surgery, radiofrequency ablation, via hepatic artery chemotherapy embolism (conventional), radiation [except for patients with bone metastases, to relieve symptoms using local appropriate dose of the radiation does not affect the blood picture]) 2. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma clearly diagnosed by histology and cytology; 3. Male or female patients aged >18 years; 4. At least 6 months from the last treatment (radiotherapy or chemotherapy) before enrollment, including patients who have used platinum-containing regimens (such as PF regimens) but failed to develop new metastatic lesions; 5. At least one measurable lesion: CT and MRI have at least one diameter (maximum diameter) 10mm that can be accurately measured;Tumor lesions located in the original radiation field were not selected as measurable lesions; 6. ECOG PS score: 0-1; Adequate bone marrow function: peripheral blood leukocyte >4.0*10^9/L; neutrophil >2.0*10^9/L; hemoglobin >90g/L; platelet >100*10^9/L; Normal liver and kidney function: AST and ALT < 2.5 times normal upper limit (liver metastasis can be relaxed to 5 times normal upper limit); total bilirubin < 1.5 times the normal upper limit; creatinine clearance 60mL/min; 9. Life expectancy over 12 weeks; 10. Subjects voluntarily participated in this study and signed the informed consent, with good compliance and follow-up.
