Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–75 - NCT06092957RecruitingPhase 3
Reduced radiation after chemo-immunotherapy for high-risk nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests whether a lower dose of radiation, with or without additional chemo-immunotherapy, works as well as the standard full-dose chemoradiation for people with advanced nasopharyngeal cancer who had a complete response after initial chemo-immunotherapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06182657Recruiting
Nasopharyngeal cancer response to induction chemotherapy
This study looks at how well nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) responds to the first round of chemotherapy before other treatments. It aims to see if the amount of tumor shrinkage can help predict outcomes and guide future care for people with advanced NPC.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18 years+ - NCT04547673Recruiting
Test an endoscopy camera tool to help diagnose throat cancer
This study checks an “intelligent” camera used during a nose-and-throat exam to improve how nasopharyngeal cancer is diagnosed. If you are eligible, your care team will compare how well the tool identifies the condition.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06307314Recruiting
Can SAA1 predict mouth sores from radiation therapy?
This study is looking at a blood marker called SAA1 to see if it can predict how severe mouth sores (oral mucositis) will be after radiation therapy. If you have head and neck cancer and are about to get radiation, this trial may help answer questions about side effects.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06282497Recruiting
New radiation technique to reduce dry mouth in nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial compares a new radiation technique designed to reduce dry mouth (xerostomia) with standard radiation for people with nasopharyngeal cancer. It aims to see if the new approach can protect saliva glands while still treating the cancer effectively.
Zhongshan, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06463392Recruiting
Deep learning tool to diagnose post-radiation nasopharyngeal changes
This trial tests a new computer-based tool (deep learning) to help diagnose a condition called sbORN (suspected benign or recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma) after radiation therapy. It aims to see if the tool can accurately tell if a suspicious spot is a recurrence or something harmless.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07690787RecruitingPhase 2
Study of JS207 for nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests a new drug, JS207, which targets two proteins (PD-1 and VEGF) that help cancer grow. It's for people with nasopharyngeal cancer that has not spread too much, and who have not had certain prior treatments.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT06675214RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy with modified radiation for advanced NPC
This trial tests a new way to give radiation therapy after immunotherapy and chemotherapy for people with advanced nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) that has partially shrunk. It aims to see if a different radiation schedule works better and has fewer side effects.
Zhuhai, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT07618078Recruiting
Personalized Cancer Risk Assessment for Nasopharyngeal Cancer
This study helps doctors predict which patients with nasopharyngeal cancer (a cancer of the upper throat) will benefit most from additional chemotherapy after radiation treatment. It uses a special blood test and imaging to create a personalized risk score for each patient.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06733948RecruitingPhase 2
Dental stent to protect taste during NPC radiation
This trial tests whether a custom-fitted dental stent (like a mouthguard) can help protect your sense of taste during radiation and chemotherapy for nasopharyngeal cancer. If you qualify, you'll receive either standard care or the stent, and your taste changes will be tracked.
SingaporeAges 21–100 - NCT07559877RecruitingPhase 3
Chlorhexidine spray to prevent radiation skin damage in throat cancer
This study tests whether a chlorhexidine spray (an antiseptic liquid) can prevent or reduce skin damage caused by radiation therapy in people being treated for nasopharyngeal cancer (cancer in the back of the nose/throat). Radiation dermatitis—painful redness and irritation of the skin—is a common side effect, and this spray may help protect your skin during treatment.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–75 - NCT06657690RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo for advanced nasopharyngeal cancer after immunotherapy
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, irinotecan liposome and S-1, for people with a type of nose and throat cancer that has spread or come back after treatment with immunotherapy (PD-1/L1 inhibitors). The goal is to see if this new combination can help when standard treatments have stopped working.
Zhuhai, GuangzhouAges 18–70 - NCT06472713RecruitingPhase 2
Liposomal mitoxantrone with immunotherapy for advanced nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests a combination of a chemotherapy drug (mitoxantrone liposome) with an immunotherapy (PD-1 blocker) for people whose nasopharyngeal cancer has come back or spread and hasn't responded to previous treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Zhuhai, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT04544969Recruiting
Testing blood markers to guide chemo for metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer
This study looks at special blood markers (CTCs) to see how sensitive your cancer is to chemotherapy and to better predict how well treatment may work. If you have metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer and can’t have local treatment, this may help match you to more effective chemo plans.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT07459296RecruitingPhase 3
