New-mode Clinical Target Volume Delineation of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a randomized, phase II, prospective, Single center trial in newly diagnosed nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients without distant metastasis. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of reduced volume IMRT versus conventional IMRT, and compare the radiotherapy-related adverse events and quality of life in two groups.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: New-mode reduced CTVp Patients with newly diagnosed, non-metastatic NPC was given New-mode reduce-volume target IMRT. The CTVp was defined as a subclinical disease consisting of 8 mm margin surrounding GTVnx (not including all nasopharyngeal mucosa) |
Radiation: New-mode reduce-volume target IMRT
The CTVp was defined as a subclinical disease consisting of 8 mm margin surrounding GTVnx (not including all nasopharyngeal mucosa)
|
No Intervention: Conventional CTVp Patients with newly diagnosed, non-metastatic NPC was given conventional reduce-volume target IMRT. The CTVp was defined as GTVnx + entire nasopharynx mucosa + 8 mm + corresponding anatomical structures. |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Local failure-free survival (LFFS) [36 months]
The duration of time to LFFS was calculated from the date of histological diagnosis until documented treatment local failure or death from any cause.
