Brief Summary

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

The most common toxicity of TP (docetaxel and cisplatin) chemotherapy is chemotherapy-induced liver injury. However, patients don't always experience same chemotherapy-induced liver injury for the same drugs. Therefore, the investigators designed the present study to clarify risk factors associated with the development of severe hepatotoxicity after therapy with docetaxel and cisplatin for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is one of the most common malignancies in southern China , with an annual incidence of 15 to 50 cases per 100,000 people. NPC is both radiosensitive and chemosensitive. Recently, many new drugs including docetaxel and cisplatin have been incorporated in the induction chemotherapy phase of NPC. The most common toxicity of TP (docetaxel and cisplatin) chemotherapy is chemotherapy-induced liver injury, and appropriate management of these toxicities can help patients improve tolerance for chemotherapy. However, patients don't always experience same chemotherapy-induced liver injury for the same drugs. Therefore, it is important to determine the risk factors to predict chemotherapy-induced liver injury. The investigators designed the present study to clarify risk factors associated with the development of severe hepatotoxicity after therapy with docetaxel and cisplatin for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).
