Official title: Multi-target Radiotherapy Combined With PD-1 Monoclonal Antibody and Capecitabine Maintenance Therapy Treating Oligometastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: a Single-arm, Multicenter, Prospective, Open-label Phase II Clinical Trial
This is a single-arm, multicenter, prospective, open-label phase II clinical trial of multi-target radiotherapy combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody and capecitabine maintenance therapy treating oligometastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma, the main purpose of which is to evaluate the efficacy of multi-target radiotherapy combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody and capecitabine maintenance therapy regimen in treating oligometastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Read the detailed description
This is a single-arm, multicenter, prospective, open-label phase II clinical study of multi-target radiotherapy combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody and capecitabine maintenance therapy for oligometastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Its primary objective is to assess the efficacy, including progression-free survival (PFS), 2-year overall survival (Two-year OS) and progression-free survival (Two-year PFS), overall survival (OS), duration of response (DOR) and safety of multi-target radiotherapy combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody and capecitabine maintenance therapy in treating oligometastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The secondary objective is to explore the potential genetic biomarkers and clinical therapeutic efficacy evaluation and prediction model of multi-target radiotherapy combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody and capecitabine maintenance therapy regimen in treating oligometastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma, providing the evidence of the screening of the potential patients benefiting from the regimen of this trial.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing SBRT radiotherapy + Conventionally fractionated radiotherapy, PD-1 inhibitor and Capecitabine in people with Radiotherapy and PD-1 Inhibitor, run by Fifth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University 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 13 inclusion and 24 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Sep 2026. 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?
The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Progress-free survival (time frame: 2 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 23 Sep 2026.
