Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a Phase Ⅲ randomized, controlled, multi-center, trial comparing cisplatin plus docetaxel to cetuximab, cisplatin, and docetaxel induction chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiation in previously untreated patients metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (mNPC) to determine whether the addition of cetuximab to induction chemotherapy and chemoradiation could improve therapeutic efficacy in mNPC, and investigate predictive and prognostic factors for mNPC.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

cisplatin and docetaxel

Induction chemotherapy: Patients receive cisplatin and docetaxel intravenously on day 1 repeated every 3 weeks for 6 cycles.

Concurrent chemoradiation: Patients who achieve complete response or partial response receive radiotherapy for primary and/or metastatic lesions with concurrent cisplatin 30mg/m\^2 intravenously every week.

Maintenance treatment: Capecitabine will be given at a dose of 1000mg/m\^2 orally twice a day starting on day 1 and continuing for days 1 to 14 of each 21 day cycle for at least 2 years or until progression.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Cisplatin

Intervention Type DRUG

cetuximab, cisplatin, and docetaxel

Induction chemotherapy: Patients receive cetuximab 400mg/m\^2 intravenously over at least 120 minutes on day 1 followed by 250 mg/m\^2 intravenously over at least 60 minutes every week. Cisplatin and docetaxel will be administered intravenously on day 2 repeated every 3 weeks for 6 cycles.

Concurrent chemoradiation: Patients who achieve complete response or partial response receive radiotherapy for primary and/or metastatic lesions with concurrent cetuximab 250mg/m\^2 intravenously followed by cisplatin 30mg/m\^2 intravenously every week.

Maintenance treatment: Capecitabine will be given at a dose of 1000mg/m\^2 orally twice a day starting on day 1 and continuing for days 1 to 14 of each 21 day cycle for at least 2 years or until progression.
