About this study

The trial plans to enroll patients with stage IVA+T3N2M0 (AJCC 8th) locoregionally-advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LANPC). Patients receive 3 cycles of induction chemotherapy with gemcitabine and cisplatin and concurrent cisplatin-radiation plus Adebrelimab in induction chemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy. Adebrelimab will begin on day 1 of induction chemotherapy and continue every 3 weeks for 3 cycles in induction therapy and for 9 cycles in adjuvant therapy.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients with histologically confirmed nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
  • Tumor staged as IVA+T3N2M0 (AJCC 8th).
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≤1.
  • Adequate marrow function: neutrocyte count≥1.5×10e9/L, hemoglobin ≥90g/L and platelet count ≥100×10e9/L.
  • Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT)/Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) ≤2.5×upper limit of normal (ULN), and bilirubin ≤ 1.5×ULN.
  • Adequate renal function: creatinine clearance rate ≥ 60 ml/min (Cockcroft-Gault formula).
  • Patients must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and give written informed consent.
  • Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) who are sexually active must be willing to adhere to effective contraception during treatment and for 1 year after the last dose of study drug. Men who are sexually active with WOCBP must be willing to adhere to effective contraception during treatment and for 1 year after the last dose of the study drug

Exclusion criteria

  • Age > 65 or < 18.
  • Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive and hepatitis B virus DNA >1×10e3 copies/ml or 200IU/ml
  • Hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody positive
  • Has active autoimmune disease, except type I diabetes, hypothyroidism treated with replacement therapy, and skin disease that doesn't require systemic treatment (e.g., vitiligo, psoriasis, or alopecia).
  • Has any condition that required systemic corticosteroid (equivalent to prednisone >10mg/d) or other immunosuppressive therapy within 28 days before informed consent. Patients received systemic corticosteroid equivalent to prednisone ≤10mg/d, inhale or topical corticosteroid will be allowed.
  • Has a known history of active TB (bacillus tuberculosis) within 1 year; patients with adequately treated active TB over 1 year ago will be allowed.
  • Has a known history of interstitial lung disease.
  • Has received a live vaccine within 30 days before informed consent or will receive a live vaccine in the near future.
  • Is pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Prior malignancy within 5 years, except in situ cancer, adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer, and papillary thyroid carcinoma.
  • Has known allergy to large molecule protein products or any compound of Adebrelimab.
  • Has a known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
  • Any other condition, including symptomatic heart failure, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, active infection requiring systemic therapy, mental illness or domestic/social factors, deemed by the investigator to be likely to interfere with a patient's ability to sign informed consent, cooperate and participate in the study, or interferes with the interpretation of the results.

Treatment and study plan

Drug

Drug: Adebrelimab Adebrelimab 1200mg will be given every 3 weeks for 3 cycles in induction chemotherapy and for 9 cycles in adjuvant chemotherapy, started on day 1 of induction chemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy, respectively.

Other Names:

PD-L1 antibody

Drug: Gemcitabine Gemcitabine 1g/m2, d1 & 8 of every cycle, every 3 weeks for 3 cycles before radiation.

Other Names:

GEM

Drug: Cisplatin Induction cisplatin 80mg/m2, every 3 weeks for 3 cycles before radiation; Concurrent cisplatin 100mg/m2, every 3 weeks for 2 cycles during radiation

DDP

Radiation: Intensity-modulated radiotherapy Definitive intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) of 6996cGy will be given in 33 fractions.

Other Names:

IMRT

Primary outcomes

  1. Failure-free survival (FFS)

    Time frame: 3 years

    calculated from enrolment to the date of locoregional recurrence, distant metastasis, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall survival (OS)

    Time frame: 3 years

    calculated from enrolment to the date of death from any cause.

  2. Distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS)

    Time frame: 3 years

    calculated from enrolment to the date of first distant metastasis.

  3. Locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRRFS)

    Time frame: 3 years

    calculated from enrolment to the date of locoregional persistence or 1st locoregional recurrence.

  4. Adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)

    Time frame: 3 years

    Graded according to CTCAE V5.0.

  5. Quality of life (QoL)

    Time frame: 3 years

    The change of QoL from randomization to the start of radiotherapy, the end of radiotherapy, 13-16 weeks after radiotherapy, 2 years and 3 years after randomization. The EORTC QoL questionnaire-C30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)version 3.0 will be used. This questionnaire comprises 30 questions, 24 of which are aggregated into nine multi-question scales, that is, five functioning scales (e.g., physical), three symptom scales (e.g., fatigue) and one global health status scale. The remaining six single-question (e.g., dyspnoea) scales assess symptoms. These 15 scales will be scored according to the official Scoring Manual.

  6. Failure-free survival (FFS) within different subgroups

    Time frame: 3 years

    analyses for FFS will be performed within the following subgroups: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA (≤4000copies/ml vs. >4000copies/ml), different Programmed Death-1(PD-L1) expression levels, age, gender, performance status, T category, N category, and stage (III vs. IVA).
