Detailed Description

The trial plans to enroll patients with stage IVA+T3N2M0 (AJCC 8th) locoregionally-advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LANPC). Patients receive 3 cycles of induction chemotherapy with gemcitabine and cisplatin and concurrent cisplatin-radiation plus Adebrelimab in induction chemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy. Adebrelimab will begin on day 1 of induction chemotherapy and continue every 3 weeks for 3 cycles in induction therapy and for 9 cycles in adjuvant therapy.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Adebrelimab arm
Patients will receive induction chemotherapy with gemcitabine (1g/m2, d1 & 8 of every cycle) and cisplatin (80mg/m2, d1 of every cycle), every 3 weeks for 3 cycles before radiation. Definitive intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) of 6996cGy in 33 fractions will be given. Concurrent cisplatin of 100mg/m2 will be administered every 3 weeks for 2 cycles during IMRT. Adebrelimab 1200mg will be given every 3 weeks for 3 cycles in induction chemotherapy and for 9 cycles in adjuvant chemotherapy, started on day 1 of induction chemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy, respectively.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Failure-free survival (FFS)
Time Frame: 3 years
calculated from enrolment to the date of locoregional recurrence, distant metastasis, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first.
3 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)
Time Frame: 3 years
Graded according to CTCAE V5.0.
3 years
Quality of life (QoL)
Time Frame: 3 years
The change of QoL from randomization to the start of radiotherapy, the end of radiotherapy, 13-16 weeks after radiotherapy, 2 years and 3 years after randomization. The EORTC QoL questionnaire-C30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)version 3.0 will be used. This questionnaire comprises 30 questions, 24 of which are aggregated into nine multi-question scales, that is, five functioning scales (e.g., physical), three symptom scales (e.g., fatigue) and one global health status scale. The remaining six single-question (e.g., dyspnoea) scales assess symptoms. These 15 scales will be scored according to the official Scoring Manual.
3 years
Overall survival (OS)
Time Frame: 3 years
calculated from enrolment to the date of death from any cause.
3 years
Distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS)
Time Frame: 3 years
calculated from enrolment to the date of first distant metastasis.
3 years
Locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRRFS)
Time Frame: 3 years
calculated from enrolment to the date of locoregional persistence or 1st locoregional recurrence.
3 years
Failure-free survival (FFS) within different subgroups
Time Frame: 3 years
analyses for FFS will be performed within the following subgroups: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA (≤4000copies/ml vs. >4000copies/ml), different Programmed Death-1(PD-L1) expression levels, age, gender, performance status, T category, N category, and stage (III vs. IVA).
