What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. progress free survival(PFS)

    PFS means assignment to the date of any local or distant progress of the disease using Kaplan-Meier calculate the progress free survival rates,and find out is there significant difference between these two groups.

    Measured: 2years after the inception assignment

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. overall survival(OS)

    the overall survival denote to assignment to date of death from any cause. Using Kaplan-Meier to calculate the 2-year ,3-year,5-year overall survival rate,and find is there any significant difference between these two groups.

    Measured: 1 year ,2 years and 3 years after the inception of the assignment

  2. Adverse events

    observe and record the toxicity profile(including but not limit to mucositis,liver and kidney function,et al.)according NCI-CTCAE(3rd edition) during the neoadjuvant chemotherapy ,chemoradiation and follow-up.

    Measured: participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay,an expected average of 100 days and every 3 months thereafter for 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Recombinant Human Endostatin plus gemcitabine and cisplatin and Gemcitabine and cisplatin in people with Effects of Chemotherapy and Stage IVC Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, run by Zhejiang Cancer Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jan 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Xiaozhong Chen (86-571-88122098, cxzfyun@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

progress free survival(PFS) (time frame: 2years after the inception assignment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Jan 2015.
