Detailed Description
This is a single-arm, multicenter, prospective, open-label phase II clinical study of multi-target radiotherapy combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody and capecitabine maintenance therapy for oligometastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Its primary objective is to assess the efficacy, including progression-free survival (PFS), 2-year overall survival (Two-year OS) and progression-free survival (Two-year PFS), overall survival (OS), duration of response (DOR) and safety of multi-target radiotherapy combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody and capecitabine maintenance therapy in treating oligometastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The secondary objective is to explore the potential genetic biomarkers and clinical therapeutic efficacy evaluation and prediction model of multi-target radiotherapy combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody and capecitabine maintenance therapy regimen in treating oligometastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma, providing the evidence of the screening of the potential patients benefiting from the regimen of this trial.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Oligometastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma Patients included are going to receive radiotherapy, chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Radiotherapy includes IMRT and SBRT. IMRT is applied for primary sites and cervical lymph nodes，and SBRT following is applied for oligometastatic sites. PD-1 inhibitors: during the whole trial, intravenous, Q3W; Capecitabine: 650mg, po, bid, following the radiotherapy for a year. |
Radiation: SBRT radiotherapy + Conventionally fractionated radiotherapy
Radiotherapy was performed 3-6 weeks after the end of first-line treatment, followed by conventional fractionated radiotherapy of the primary tumor and cervical lymph node metastases, SBRT radiotherapy of distant organ metastases 3-6 weeks later.
Drug: PD-1 inhibitor
Immunotherapy of PD-1 inhibitor is used during the whole time of this trial until subjects were withdrawn from the trial or the trial complete
Other Names:
Drug: Capecitabine
Capecitabine is treated for patients 3-6 weeks after radiotherapy, which combines with PD-1 inhibitor as the maintenance regimen in the trial.
