Nivolumab in Combination With Chemoradiation for Patients With Stage II-IVB Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, A Phase II Study With Correlative Biomarkers
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Nivolumab, Cisplatin, and 1 other intervention for Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma. Completed, enrolled 40 participants across 2 sites in 2 countries.
Detailed Summary
This phase II trial studies how well nivolumab and chemoradiotherapy works in treating patients with stage II-IVB nasopharyngeal cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may block tumor growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Chemoradiotherapy is the combination of chemotherapy and radiation therapy and may prevent the cancer from spreading when combined with nivolumab. Giving nivolumab and chemoradiotherapy may work better in treating patients with stage II-IVB nasopharyngeal cancer.
