Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06029270RecruitingPhase 2
Adding relatlimab to standard immunotherapy for nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests whether adding a new drug called relatlimab to the usual immunotherapy (nivolumab) helps people with nasopharyngeal cancer that has returned or spread. You will get standard chemotherapy plus nivolumab first, then if it works, you may be randomly assigned to get nivolumab alone or with relatlimab.
Dublin, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04425265Recruiting
Low-temperature plasma treatment vs high-frequency cautery for recurring cancer
This trial compares two ways of surgically treating localized, recurrent nasopharyngeal cancer: a low-temperature plasma radiofrequency method versus a standard high-frequency cautery method. You might be eligible if your recurrence is limited and can be surgically removed, and you are within the allowed health and age ranges.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT03907826RecruitingPhase 3
PD-1 therapy plus chemoradiation for recurrent nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial studies whether adding a PD-1 antibody (an immunotherapy) to standard chemoradiation can better control recurrent nasopharyngeal cancer that can’t be removed with surgery. If you qualify, you’d receive the study treatment and be closely monitored for side effects and cancer response.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT01365169Recruiting
How activity level and daily function relate to cancer survival
This study looks at how physical activity (movement during the day) and a clinician-rated “day-to-day function” score relate to overall survival in people with certain cancers. It may help doctors understand who benefits most from activity-focused care and better monitoring.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06886347RecruitingPhase 1
New treatment for metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer before chemotherapy
This trial tests a new treatment for people with advanced nasopharyngeal cancer that has spread (stage IVb) and who have not yet had chemotherapy. It aims to see if the experimental treatment is safe and effective as a first option.
