About this study

Official title: Capecitabine Plus Toripalimab Maintenance Therapy in Metastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma After First-line Gemcitabine/Cisplatin Plus Toripalimab Treatment: a Single Arm, Open Label, Multicenter, Phase II Clinical Study

to evaluate the efficacy and safety of toripalimab and capecitabine maintenance therapy in patients with metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) after first-line gemcitabine/cisplatin combined with toripalimab.

Read the detailed description

This study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of toripalimab and capecitabine maintenance therapy in patients with metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) after first-line gemcitabine/cisplatin combined with toripalimab. Patients received a standard dose of toripalimab combined with gemcitabine/cisplatin every 3 weeks (Q3W) for 4-6 cycles. Efficacy was assessed after 4-6 courses of chemotherapy, and patients with PR/CR were enrolled in the clinical trial for maintenance therapy. During maintenance therapy, capecitabine and toripalimab were used as maintenance therapy every 3 weeks until toxicity was unacceptable, disease progression, consent withdrawal, or withdrawal was determined by the investigator, or a maximum of 2 years of treatment had been reached.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. progression-free survival(PFS)

    The time is defined from the enrolment to progression or death from any cause

    Measured: up to 24 month

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. overall survival(OS)

    The time is defined from the enrolment to death from any cause

    Measured: up to 24 month

  2. Objective Response Rate(ORR)

    The percentage of patients with CR and PR assessed by investigators according to Recist v 1.1

    Measured: up to 24 month

  3. Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    The proportion of patients who have achieved complete response,partial response and Stable disease assessed by investigators according to Recist v 1.1

    Measured: up to 24 month

  4. Duration of Response (DoR)

    The time is defined from first documented objective response to radiographic disease progression or death, whichever occurred first, assessed by investigator

    Measured: up to 24 month

  5. Adverse Events (AEs)

    All adverse event/Serious adverse event that occurred during the study period according to CTCAE v 5.0

    Measured: up to 24 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Capecitabine plus toripalimab in people with Metastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, run by Affiliated Cancer Hospital & Institute of Guangzhou Medical University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 17 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yin Wen-Jing (0086-13929503157, wenjing1342@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

progression-free survival(PFS) (time frame: up to 24 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Aug 2022.
