TPC vs PF as Induction Chemotherapy Combined With CCRT for Stage IVa-b Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, a Prospective,Parallel, Randomized, Open Labeled, Multicenter Phase III Clinical Trial

The purpose of this study is to compare the survival and toxicity of TPC (TAXOL, DDP AND CAPECITABINE ) VS PF (cisplatin and 5-Fluorouracil) as induction chemotherapy combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for stage IVa-b nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients in endemic area.

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, parallel, randomized, open labeled, multicenter phase III clinical trial to compare the survival and toxicity of TPC VS PF as induction chemotherapy combined with CCRT for stage IVa-b nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients in endemic area.The primary endpoint is failure free survival (FFS）.The secondary endpoints are overall survival(OS）,progression-free survival（PFS）, local-regionally relapse free survival(LRFS), distant metastasis free survival（DMFS)and toxicities.
