Surgery Plus Reduced Target Chemoradiotherapy Versus Surgery Plus Reduced Dose Chemoradiotherapy for Newly Diagnosed Operable Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma : a Prospective, Multicenter, Radomized Control Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare surgery plus reduced target chemoradiotherapy with surgery plus reduced dose chemoradiotherapy in newly diagnosed operable Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.The main questions it aims to answer are:whether endoscopic surgery combined with reduced dose chemoradiotherapy vs surgery plus target reduction chemoradiotherapy can bring substantial survival benefits, lower toxicity, and shorter treatment cycle for patients with operable nasopharyngeal carcinoma .
• Performance Status Score 0-1 points.
• Non-keratinized carcinoma of the nasopharynx (differentiated or undifferentiated, i.e., WHO type II or III) confirmed histologically and/or cytologically.
• Patients with primary nasopharyngeal lesions evaluated as surgically resectable, including T1 (tumor limited to nasopharynx), T2 (tumor limited to the surface of parapharyngeal space) and T3 (tumor limited to the bottom wall of sphenoid sinus) and tumor diameter ≤1.5cm. Resectable retropharyngeal lymph nodes were defined as; The diameter was ≤ 1.5cm, the tissue space was intact, and there was no obvious extranodal invasion; The resectable cervical lymph nodes were defined as ≤ 3cm in diameter, located above the lower edge of the cricoid cartilage, with moderate mobility and no obvious extranodal invasion. Clinical stage: T1-3N1-2M0, T2-3N0M0 (Stage II-III) according to AJCC 8th staging edition.
• Adequate organ function: WBC ≥ 4×10\^9 /L, NEUT ≥ 2×10\^6 /L, HGB ≥ 9 g/dL, PLT count ≥ 100×10\^9/L, TBIL ≤1.5 ULN (TBIL ≤3 ULN for patients with Gilbert Disease), ALT ≤3 ULN, AST ≤3 ULN, ALP ≤3 ULN, ALB ≥ 3 g/dL, INR or APTT≤1.5 ULN, Scr ≤1.5 ULN or Ccr ≥ 60 mL/min.
• Informed Concent signed with willingness to obey the follow-up, treatment, examination and any other programs according to the research protocol.
