简要总结
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, gemcitabine hydrochloride, carboplatin, and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving chemotherapy together with radiation therapy my kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether giving cisplatin together with radiation therapy is more effective with or without gemcitabine hydrochloride, carboplatin, and paclitaxel in treating patients with nasopharyngeal cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase II/III trial is studying how well giving cisplatin together with radiation therapy works compared with giving cisplatin and radiation therapy together with gemcitabine hydrochloride, carboplatin, and paclitaxel in treating patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal cancer.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To compare the 5-year overall survival of patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal cancer treated with concurrent cisplatin and radiotherapy with vs without induction chemotherapy comprising gemcitabine hydrochloride, carboplatin, and paclitaxel.
Secondary
- To assess and compare the disease-free survival, distant metastases rate, toxicities, and quality of life of patients treated with these regimens.
