Two Phase Ⅲ trials (TAX323 and TAX324) showed induction chemotherapy adding docetaxel to cisplatin plus fluorouracil (TPF) could significant improve survival in head and neck cancer, and a Phase Ⅱ trial from Hong Kong by Hui and colleges with this strategy has also been reported in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). However, whether three cycles induction could delay the whole time of treatment and reduce the survival benefit are still unknown. A retrospective study of one cycle TPF induction chemotherapy by the investigators group (not yet published) could improve survival in NPC. It encourage us to conduct this clinical trial.
Patients presented with non-keratinizing NPC and stage Ⅲ-Ⅳb T3-4N1M0/TxN2M0 are randomly assigned to receive one cycle induction chemotherapy (docetaxel+cisplatin+fluorouracil) plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy (investigational arm) or three cycles induction chemotherapy (docetaxel+cisplatin+fluorouracil) plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy (investigational arm)(control arm). Patients in both arms receive radical Intensity modulated radiation therapy (Trilogy, Varian), and cisplatin (30mg/m2) every weeks for six cycles during radiotherapy. Radiation is delivered to GTV at 70 Gy in 30 fractions, CTV1 at at 60 Gy in 30 fractions and CTV2 at 54 Gy in 30 fractions. Patients in the investigational arm receive docetaxel (60mg/m2 on day 1), cisplatin (20mg/m2 on day 1-4) and fluorouracil (800mg/m2/d,continuous infusion, day 1-4) every three weeks for one cycle or three cycles before the radiotherapy. The primary end point is response rates after radiotherapy, failure-free survival (FFS) and toxic effects and treatment compliance. Secondary end points include overall survival (OS), distant failure-free survival (D-FFS), locoregional failure-free survival (LR-FFS). All efficacy analyses are conducted in the intention-to-treat population; the safety population include only patients who receive their randomly assigned treatment.
