About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Phase III Trial of Induction Plus Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy Plus Camrelizumab or Nimotuzumab Versus Induction Plus Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in Locally Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma With Detectable EBV DNA After One Cycle GP Regime Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy

The goal of this multicenter randomized non-inferior study is to compare the additon of camrelizumab or nimotuzumab to neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy in locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients whose EBV DNA remained detectable after one cycle neoadjuvant chemotherapy using GP regimen. The main question it aims to answer is: whether the addition of carrilizumab or nituzumab improve the treatment outcomes in the relatively poor prognostic patients identified by the response of EBV DNA. Participants will be randomized to the combination of carrilizumab and standard treatment , the combination of nituzumab and standard treatment or the standard treatment alone if their EBV DNA didn't decrease to undetectable level post first cycle of neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Being tested
Camrelizumab, Nimotuzumab, neoadjuvant chemotherapy and CCRT

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival

    Defined from date of randomization to date of first documentation of progression or death due to any cause

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall survival

    Defined from date of randomization to date of first documentation of death from any cause or censored at the date of the last follow-up.

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Toxicities

    Analysis of acute and late adverse events (AEs) are evaluated. Numbers of patients of treatment-related adverse events(acute toxicity) as assessed by CTCAE v5.0.Numbers of patients of late radiation toxicities were assessed using the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group and European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer late radiation morbidity scoring scheme.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Camrelizumab, Nimotuzumab and neoadjuvant chemotherapy and CCRT in people with Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, run by Fudan 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 9 inclusion and 9 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Mar 2023. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Chengrun Du (+86-15001733593, duchengrun@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression-free survival (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 16 Mar 2023.
