Brief Title: Serial Epstein-Barr Virus DNA Surveillance in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Patients
Official Title: Serial Epstein-Barr Virus DNA Surveillance During Treatment in Non-metastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Patients
Study ID: NCT03855020
Brief Summary: Endemic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is invariably associated with Epstein-barr virus (EBV) infection. Plasma EBV DAN detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based assays can provide important informations of disease screening, disease relapse, and risks classification. In this study, the investigators will explore the impact of serial plasma EBV DNA during chemotherapy and radiotherapy on initial tumor response and long-term survival in patients with non-metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma
