Brief Summary

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

To compare the effectiveness and toxicity of nedaplatin versus cisplatin in induction chemotherapy combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy for locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Detailed Description

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

This is a prospective, parallel, randomized, open labeled, phase III, non-inferiority clinical trial to compare the effectiveness and toxicity of nedaplatin versus cisplatin in induction chemotherapy combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy for locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients in endemic area - nedaplatin, docetaxel and fluorouracil as induction chemotherapy regimen combined with nedaplatin as concurrent chemoradiotherapy (DNF-N) versus cisplatin, docetaxel and fluorouracil as induction chemotherapy regimen combined with cisplatin as concurrent chemoradiotherapy (DPF-P). All patients will receive radical intense modulate radiation therapy (IMRT). The primary endpoint is progress free survival (PFS).
