Brief summary
This trial aims to study the role of Adebrelimab combined with induction chemotherapy plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy (IC+CCRT) for high-risk locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma(LANPC).
Detailed description
The trial plans to enroll patients with stage IVA+T3N2M0 (AJCC 8th) locoregionally-advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LANPC). Patients receive 3 cycles of induction chemotherapy with gemcitabine and cisplatin and concurrent cisplatin-radiation plus Adebrelimab in induction chemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy. Adebrelimab will begin on day 1 of induction chemotherapy and continue every 3 weeks for 3 cycles in induction therapy and for 9 cycles in adjuvant therapy.
Interventions
Drug: Adebrelimab Adebrelimab 1200mg will be given every 3 weeks for 3 cycles in induction chemotherapy and for 9 cycles in adjuvant chemotherapy, started on day 1 of induction chemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy, respectively. Other Names: PD-L1 antibody Drug: Gemcitabine Gemcitabine 1g/m2, d1 & 8 of every cycle, every 3 weeks for 3 cycles before radiation. Other Names: GEM Drug: Cisplatin Induction cisplatin 80mg/m2, every 3 weeks for 3 cycles before radiation; Concurrent cisplatin 100mg/m2, every 3 weeks for 2 cycles during radiation Other Names: DDP Radiation: Intensity-modulated radiotherapy Definitive intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) of 6996cGy will be given in 33 fractions. Other Names: IMRT

Has active autoimmune disease, except type I diabetes, hypothyroidism treated with replacement therapy, and skin disease that doesn't require systemic treatment (e.g., vitiligo, psoriasis, or alopecia). 5. Has any condition that required systemic corticosteroid (equivalent to prednisone \>10mg/d) or other immunosuppressive therapy within 28 days before informed consent. Patients received systemic corticosteroid equivalent to prednisone ≤10mg/d, inhale or topical corticosteroid will be allowed. 6. Has a known history of active TB (bacillus tuberculosis) within 1 year; patients with adequately treated active TB over 1 year ago will be allowed. 7.

Has known allergy to large molecule protein products or any compound of Adebrelimab. 12. Has a known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. 13. Any other condition, including symptomatic heart failure, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, active infection requiring systemic therapy, mental illness or domestic/social factors, deemed by the investigator to be likely to interfere with a patient's ability to sign informed consent, cooperate and participate in the study, or interferes with the interpretation of the results.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Failure-free survival (FFS) | 3 years | calculated from enrolment to the date of locoregional recurrence, distant metastasis, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) | 3 years | calculated from enrolment to the date of first distant metastasis. |
| Locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRRFS) | 3 years | calculated from enrolment to the date of locoregional persistence or 1st locoregional recurrence. |
| Overall survival (OS) | 3 years | calculated from enrolment to the date of death from any cause. |
| Quality of life (QoL) | 3 years | The change of QoL from randomization to the start of radiotherapy, the end of radiotherapy, 13-16 weeks after radiotherapy, 2 years and 3 years after randomization. The EORTC QoL questionnaire-C30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)version 3.0 will be used. This questionnaire comprises 30 questions, 24 of which are aggregated into nine multi-question scales, that is, five functioning scales (e.g., physical), three symptom scales (e.g., fatigue) and one global health status scale. The remaining six single-question (e.g., dyspnoea) scales assess symptoms. These 15 scales will be scored according to the official Scoring Manual. |
| Failure-free survival (FFS) within different subgroups | 3 years | analyses for FFS will be performed within the following subgroups: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA (≤4000copies/ml vs. \>4000copies/ml), different Programmed Death-1(PD-L1) expression levels, age, gender, performance status, T category, N category, and stage (III vs. IVA). |
| Adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) | 3 years | Graded according to CTCAE V5.0. |
