A Phase III Trial in NPC With Post-radiation Detectable Plasma EBV DNA
Phase III Randomized Trial of Immediate Adjuvant Chemotherapy or Delayed Salvage Chemotherapy in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Patients With Post-radiation Detectable Plasma EBV DNA
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a geographically endemic, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated carcinoma of epidermoid origin. It occurs most commonly in Southern China and Southeast Asia. The NPC cells are poorly differentiated or undifferentiated with a high incidence of lymphatic and hematological dissemination. Because of the inherent anatomic constraints and a high degree of radiosensitivity, radiotherapy (RT) has been the primary treatment for NPC patients.
NPC is also a chemosensitive tumor. Various modes of combined chemoradiotherapy have been used to treat NPC patients with advanced-stage diseases during recent 20 years. However, treatment outcome for locoregionally advanced NPC is still unsatisfactory.
