Brief Summary: Gemcitabine plus cisplatin (GC) is more effective than fluorouracil plus cisplatin in the treatment of recurrent or metastatic NPC (R/M-NPC). GC is the standard first-line chemotherapy regimen for this population. However, the median progression-free survival was only 7 months for GC regimen. Anlotinib is a kinase inhibitor of receptor tyrosine with multi-targets, especially for VEGFR2、VEGFR3、PDGFRβ and c-Kit, which has strong effect of anti-angiogenesis. This study is aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination regimen of anlotinib plus GC as first-line treatment for R/M-NPC.
Detailed Description: In the phase Ib portion, an escalated dose cohort is recruited to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of anlotinib when given in combination with gemcitabine/cisplatin. The phase II portion is designed to characterize the efficacy and safety of the combination therapy in previous untreated patients with R/M-NPC.
