Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for GP vs PF as Induction Chemotherapy Combined With CCRT for Locoregionally Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

Study Description

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare the survival and toxicity of GP (gemcitabine and cisplatin) vs. PF (cisplatin and fluorouracil) as induction chemotherapy combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma( NPC ) patients.

Detailed Description: Patients presented with non-keratinizing NPC and stage T1-4N2-3/T4N0-1M0 are randomly assigned to receive GP (gemcitabine and cisplatin) or PF (cisplatin and fluorouracil) induction chemotherapy combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Patients in both arms receive radical radiotherapy, and cisplatin (100mg/m²) every three weeks for two cycles during radiotherapy. Patients in the investigational arm receive gemcitabine (1000 mg/m² d1,8) and cisplatin (80mg/m² d1) every 3 weeks for three cycles. Patients in the control arm receive fluorouracil (800mg/m² d1-5) and cisplatin (80mg/m² d1) every 3 weeks for three cycles. Our primary endpoint is progress-free survival (PFS). Secondary end points include distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), overall survival (OS), locoregional relapse-free survival (LRRFS), initial response rates after treatments, toxic effects and quality of life (QoL).
