About this study

Official title: Adebrelimab Combined with Chemoradiotherapy for High-risk Locoregionally Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: a Phase 2, Multicenter, Single-arm Clinical Trial

This trial aims to study the role of Adebrelimab combined with induction chemotherapy plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy (IC+CCRT) for high-risk locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma(LANPC).

Read the detailed description

The trial plans to enroll patients with stage IVA+T3N2M0 (AJCC 8th) locoregionally-advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LANPC). Patients receive 3 cycles of induction chemotherapy with gemcitabine and cisplatin and concurrent cisplatin-radiation plus Adebrelimab in induction chemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy. Adebrelimab will begin on day 1 of induction chemotherapy and continue every 3 weeks for 3 cycles in induction therapy and for 9 cycles in adjuvant therapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Failure-free survival (FFS)

    calculated from enrolment to the date of locoregional recurrence, distant metastasis, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first.

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Overall survival (OS)

    calculated from enrolment to the date of death from any cause.

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS)

    calculated from enrolment to the date of first distant metastasis.

    Measured: 3 years

  3. Locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRRFS)

    calculated from enrolment to the date of locoregional persistence or 1st locoregional recurrence.

    Measured: 3 years

  4. Adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)

    Graded according to CTCAE V5.0.

    Measured: 3 years

  5. Quality of life (QoL)

    The change of QoL from randomization to the start of radiotherapy, the end of radiotherapy, 13-16 weeks after radiotherapy, 2 years and 3 years after randomization. The EORTC QoL questionnaire-C30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)version 3.0 will be used. This questionnaire comprises 30 questions, 24 of which are aggregated into nine multi-question scales, that is, five functioning scales (e.g., physical), three symptom scales (e.g., fatigue) and one global health status scale. The remaining six single-question (e.g., dyspnoea) scales assess symptoms. These 15 scales will be scored according to the official Scoring Manual.

    Measured: 3 years

  6. Failure-free survival (FFS) within different subgroups

    analyses for FFS will be performed within the following subgroups: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA (≤4000copies/ml vs. >4000copies/ml), different Programmed Death-1(PD-L1) expression levels, age, gender, performance status, T category, N category, and stage (III vs. IVA).

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Adebrelimab in people with Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma and Nasopharyngeal Cancer, run by Sun Yat-sen University at 4 sites 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 8 inclusion and 13 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 15 Jan 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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?

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 Jun Ma, M.D. (+862087343469, majun2@mail.sysu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Failure-free survival (FFS) (time frame: 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06349889, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 15 Jan 2025.
