Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to explore whether 18F-FDG PET/CT guided reduced-dose radiotherapy would maintain survival outcomes in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients.

Detailed Description

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

Enrolled patients with complete metabolic response (CMR) and more than 70% partial metabolic response (PMR) according to PERCIST criteria at the 25th fraction will receive intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) of reduced-dose (prescribed dose, 63.6 Gy, 2.12 Gy per fractions, 30 fractions), for those who with ≤70% PMR will receive conventional dose (prescribed dose, 70Gy, 2.12 Gy per fractions, 33 fractions).
