NCT ID:
NCT00816816
Brief Summary:
The primary objective of this study is to determine the tolerance and overall survival in patients with stage ⅣAB NPC treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and concurrent chemoradiation.
Secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate the distant metastases free survival, and disease-free survival of patients with stage ⅣAB treated with this regimen
Detailed Description:
Concurrent chemoradiation is the standard treatment for locally advanced NPC. The survival benefit gained from adding neoadjuvant chemotherapy to concurrent chemoradiation has never been defined. In the present trail, we hope to assess the tolerance and survival benefits of neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiation in patients with stage ⅣAB NPC.
