No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been proven to process a strong association in patient of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Monitoring plasma EBV DNA in NPC patients can provide reliable informations in early detecting tumor recurrence or risk grouping.

Conditions

  • Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Plasma EBV DNA

Parameters analyzed will include (1) the change pattern of plasma EBV DNA concentrations, (2) various half-life values (t1/2) of plasma EBV DNA clearance rate calculated over different time periods.
