Detecting Chemosensitivity and Predicting Treatmemt Efficacy With CTCs in mNPC
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The prospective observational clinical study will recruit 50 metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (mNPC) patients, detecting patient's chemosensitivity with the circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from peripheral blood and prdicting patient's treatment efficacy with CTCs dynamic change.

Chemotherapy Patients treated with palliative chemotherapy |
Drug: cisplatin-based chemotherapy
GP: cisplatin 80 mg/m2 intravenous infusion on day1, gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 intravenous infusion on day 1 and 8, both drugs are given every 3 weeks, recommended 6 cycles.
TP: cisplatin 75 mg/m2 intravenous infusion in day1, docetaxel 75 mg/m2 intravenous infusion in day 1, both drugs are given every 3 weeks, recommended 6 cycles.
PF: cisplatin 100 mg/m2 intravenous infusion in day1, fluorouracil 4000 mg/m2 intravenous infusion in day 1 to 5, both drugs are given every 3 weeks, recommended 6 cycles.
TPF: cisplatin 60 mg/m2 intravenous infusion in day1, docetaxel 60 mg/m2 intravenous infusion in day 1, fluorouracil 3000 mg/m2 intravenous infusion in day 1 to 5, both drugs are given every 3 weeks, recommended 6 cycles.
Choice of chemotherapy regimen is decided by patient's doctor in charge.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- The coincidence rate between drug sensitivity test in CTCs and objective response rate [6 months]
Comparison the coincidence rate between drug sensitivity test in CTCs and objective response rate of corresponding chemotherapy regime
Secondary Outcome Measures
- The changes of CTCs countings [Change from pre-chemotherapy to 22-28(±7) days after last course of chemotherapy]
- Objective response rate [study period of 19 Months]
To be determined by measurement of target lesions according to RECIST criteria
- Progression free survival [baseline]
Defined as the time in months from first course of treatment until PD is observed or death occurs due to any cause.
- Cutoff value of CTC counts [Objective response at 6 months]
to identify patients with early relapse (<6 months) after liver resection as determined by the AUC under the ROC curve
- Predictive value of the changes of CTCs countings [Change from pre-chemotherapy to 22-28(±7) days after last course of chemotherapy]
