Summary

The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of image guided de-escalation protocols in patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). So the investigators studied whether toxicities reducing treatment with omitted concurrent chemotherapy after good response to induction chemotherapy would maintain survival outcomes while improving tolerability for patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Conditions

  • Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

Interventions

RADIATION

Toxicities reduced treatment

Drug: docetaxel and cisplatin (Induction chemotherapy) Patients receive docetaxel (75 mg/m2 d1) and cisplatin (25mg/m2 d1-3) every 3 weeks for 3 cycles before IMRT. Omitting concurrent cisplatin chemotherapy when responses to induction chemotherapy are ≥ 50% Partial Response(PR). Radiation: IMRT Intensity modulated-radiotherapy (IMRT) is given as 2.2 Gy per fraction with five daily fractions per week for 6-7 weeks to a total dose of 66 or 70.4 Gy to the primary tumor.

RADIATION

Conventional treatment

Drug: docetaxel and cisplatin (Induction chemotherapy) Patients receive docetaxel (75 mg/m2 d1) and cisplatin (25mg/m2 d1-3) every 3 weeks for 3 cycles before IMRT. Concurrent cisplatin chemoradiotherapy delivered when responses to induction chemotherapy are less than 50% Partial Response(PR). Radiation: IMRT Intensity modulated-radiotherapy (IMRT) is given as 2.2 Gy per fraction with five daily fractions per week for 6-7 weeks to a total dose of 66 or 70.4 Gy to the primary tumor.
