Concurrent Nab-paclitaxel with Intensity-modulated Radiation Therapy in Patients with Stage III-IVa Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

September 25, 2024 updated by: Fang-Yun Xie, Sun Yat-sen University

A Phase I Study of Concurrent Nab-paclitaxel with Intensity-modulated Radiation Therapy in Patients with Stage III-IVa Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the maximum tolerated dose and the recommended phase II dose for nab-paclitaxel when administered concurrently with radiotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Researchers will observe the toxicity response of patients receiving nab-paclitaxel at 180 mg/m², 200 mg/m², 230 mg/m², and 260 mg/m².
