IC Plus Low-dose Radiation Plus Cadonilimab in LANPC

Induction Chemotherapy Combined With Low-dose Radiation Plus Cadonilimab in Loco-regionally Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: a Multi-center, Open-label, Randomized Controlled Phase III Clinical Trial


Sponsor

Sun Yat-sen University

Enrollment

380 participants

Start Date

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This is a multi-center, open-label, randomized controlled phase III clinical trial in primary diagnosed loco-regionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of induction chemotherapy (IC) combined with low-dose radiation and immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) versus IC+CCRT, and compare the treatment-related adverse events and quality of life in two groups.

Interventions

RADIATIONIntensity Modulated Radiation Therapy

All target volumes will be outlined slice by slice on the axial contrast-enhanced CT with MR fusion images in the treatment planning system. The target volumes are defined in accordance with the International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements Reports 83. The prescribed dose is 70-72 Gy to PTVp (Planning target volume of the primary tumor), 64-70 Gy to PTVn (Planning target volume of the lymph node), 60- 64Gy to PTV1 (High-risk planning target volume), and 54-58 Gy to PTV2 (Low-risk planning target volume) in 30-32 fractions.

DRUGChemotherapy

Induction chemotherapy: gemcitabine and cisplatin, Q3W, 3 cycles Concurrent chemotherapy: cisplatin, Q3W, 2-3 cycles

BIOLOGICALImmune checkpoint inhibitor

Cadonilimab: 10mg/kg, Q3W, 3 cycles

RADIATIONLow-dose radiotherapy

Low-dose radiotherapy will be performed to study group, with the use of IMRT.
