The purpose of this study is to determine whether celecoxib is effective in the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma by concurrent chemoradiation with weekly nedaplatin.
Study Patients:
Patients are all recruited from the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University, Nanning, Guangxi, China. All the patients provide written informed consent before enrollment. All eligible patients received a pretreatment evaluation including complete history and physical examination, endoscopic biopsy, routine laboratory tests for hematologic, renal and hepatic function as well as a dental and nutritional evaluation prior to treatment. Radiological investigations consisted of computed tomography (CT) scan or magnetic MRI of the nasopharynx, chest radiography, ultrasound of the upper abdomen and bone scintigraphy. Pathologic confirmation of nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) was performed and re-classified according to the world health organization (WHO) subtypes.
Study design:
A total of 120 NPC patients are randomly and equally divided into two groups: Nedaplatin alone concurrent radiotherapy, Celecoxib plus nedaplatin concurrent radiotherapy. The tumor response will be evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) after 4 weeks. The tumor responses including Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR) , Stable Disease (SD) and Progressive Disease (PD) is defined according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), version 1.0. The show term or long term toxicity will be evaluated according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCICTC), version 3.0. All the NPC patients are requested to be followed up with an expected average of every 3 months after the therapy.The other clinical outcomes including the first evidence of cancer progression or death from any cause, the occurrence of distant metastasis, and the relapse of a local or nodal tumor will be evaluated as well. The follow-up will be up to 2018.
Statistical Analysis:
Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS 13.0) is used to analyze the effect of celecoxib on the nedaplatin concurrent radiotherapy. Cox's regression model and Kaplan-Meier method is used to conduct survival analysis. Clinical outcomes including the tumor responses, 1-year/3-year/5-year overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS), distant metastasis failure-free survival (DMFS) and locoregional failure-free survival (LFFS) will be analyzed. The multivariate Cox's regression model is used to adjust the confounders, including age and body mass index. P value less than 0.05 will be considered to be statistically significant.
