About this study

Official title: Induction Chemotherapy With Nab-paclitaxel and Nedaplatin Followed by Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in Patients With Locally Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a malignant tumor that originates in nasopharyngeal epithelial cells. It is common in southern China and Southeast Asia, but the incidence rate is low in most parts of the world. According to the World Health Organization survey, 80% of nasopharyngeal carcinomas occur in China, with high incidence in southern China, as high as 30-50/100,000, such as Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, and Fujian. In 2015, Chinese cancer statistics showed that there were about 60,600 new cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in China, and the number of deaths was about 34,100. Radiation therapy is the main treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Early stage I and IIa achieved a 5-year survival rate (OS) of 90% and 84%, respectively . However, the treatment outcomes of most patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma are not ideal.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective response rate (ORR)

    To be determined by measurement of target lesions according to RECIST criteria

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Progression-Free Survival(PFS)

    From the date of enrollment to the date of either locally, regionally or distant failure or last follow-up

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Overall survival(OS)

    From the date of enrollment to the date of death is observed or to last follow-up visit

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Nab-paclitaxel in people with Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, run by Fuzhou General 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 9 inclusion and 8 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 11 Jul 2019. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 wenmin ying, bachelor (228 59125, 18352770@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective response rate (ORR) (time frame: 3 years). 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 11 Jul 2019.
