Conditions

Locally Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

Brief summary

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.

Interventions

Patients receive Neoadjuvant Docetaxel (75mg/m2 on day1 03:30-04:30) and cisplatin (75mg/m2 on day 1-5 10:00-22:00) and 5-FU(750mg/m2 on day 1-5 22:00-10:00) every 21days for three cycles followed by concurrent cisplatin (100mg/m2 on day1 10:00-22:00)every 21 days for three cycles during radiotherapy

Patients receive concurrent cisplatin (100mg/m2 on day1 10:00-22:00)every 21 days for three cycles during radiotherapy followed by adjuvant cisplatin (80mg/m2 on day 1-5 10:00-22:00) and 5-FU(800mg/m2 on day 1-5 22:00-10:00) every 21days for three cycles

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Progress-free survival(PFS)3 yearsProgress-free survival(year) is calculated from the date of randomization to the date of the first progress at any site or death from any cause or censored at the date of the last follow-up.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Overall survival(OS)3 yearsThe OS(year) was defined as the duration from the date of random assignment to the date of death from any cause or censored at the date of the last follow-up.
Locoregional failure-free survival(LRFS)3 yearsThe LRFS(year) is evaluated and calculated from the date of random assignment until the day of first locoregional relapse or until the date of the last follow-up visit.
Distant metastasis-free survival(DMFS)3 yearsThe DMFS(year) is evaluated and calculated from the date of random assignment until the day of first distant metastases or until the date of the last follow-up visit.
Overall response rate12 weeks after completion of concurrent chemoradiotherapyTumour response(CR/PR/SD/PD) was classified according to RECIST v1.1
Incidence of acute and late toxicity3 yearsIncidence of acute toxicity(Grade1/2/3/4) is calculated for each adverse event respectively and severity is evaluated on basis of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 4.0 criteria. Late radiation toxicities were assessed using the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group and European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer late radiation morbidity scoring scheme
