Overview

Investigators target recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma that can be resected surgically: rT1, rT2 (tumor confined to the surface of the parapharyngeal space, greater than 0.5cm from the internal carotid artery), rT3 (confined to the floor of the sphenoid sinus, greater than 0.5cm from the internal carotid artery/cavernous sinus) (AJCC 8th stage), A single-arm, phase II clinical trial was designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of triplizumab combined with nituzumab in induction and adjuvant treatment of operable local recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Description

Investigators target recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma that can be resected surgically: rT1, rT2 (tumor confined to the surface of the parapharyngeal space, greater than 0.5cm from the internal carotid artery), rT3 (confined to the floor of the sphenoid sinus, greater than 0.5cm from the internal carotid artery/cavernous sinus) (AJCC 8th stage), A single-arm, phase II clinical trial was designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of triplizumab combined with nituzumab in induction and adjuvant treatment of operable local recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The investigators focus on the 2-year PFS as the primary outcome.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 1. Voluntarily participate in and sign the informed consent in person. 2. Aged 18-65 years, male or non-pregnant female. 3. Histologically and/or cytologically confirmed recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (keratinized or non-keratinized carcinoma; Differentiated or undifferentiated) 4. Patients with recurrence time more than 6 months from the end of radiotherapy; 5. Recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma that can be resectable: rT1, rT2 (the tumor is confined to the surface of the parapharyngeal space, and the distance from the internal carotid artery is greater than that from the internal carotid artery 0.5cm), rT3 (confined to the floor wall of the sphenoid sinus, greater than 0.5cm from the internal carotid artery/cavernous sinus) (AJCC 8th stage).

If the tumor invades the internal carotid artery, or is less than 0.5cm away from the internal carotid artery, but the invasion scope does not exceed the external edge of the internal carotid artery, it can be advanced Internal carotid artery preconditioning (including internal carotid artery embolization or stent implantation) was followed.

6. ECOG score 0-1, no serious dysfunction of heart, lung, liver, kidney and other vital organs.

7. Hemoglobin (HGB) ≥90 g/L, white blood cells (WBC) ≥4.0×109 /L, platelets (PLT) ≥100×109 /L.

8. Liver function: ALT and AST< 2.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), total bilirubin <2.0×ULN.

9. Renal function: serum creatinine <1.5×ULN.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • 1. The pathological findings were keratinized squamous cell carcinoma (WHO type I). 2. Received systemic or local glucocorticoid therapy within 4 weeks before enrollment. 3. Patients who have participated in other drug clinical trials within 3 months before treatment. 4. Patients with a known history of allogeneic organ transplantation or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation; 5. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, drug-induced pneumonia, institutional pneumonia (i.e., bronchiolitis obliterans), clinical symptoms or Radiation pneumonia, active pneumonia, or other moderate to severe lung disease requiring steroid treatment 6. Have a comorbiditis that requires prolonged treatment with immunosuppressive drugs or systemic or local use of immunosuppressive doses of corticosteroids. 7.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
