ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying the best way to treat patients with locally advanced recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), which is a type of throat cancer that has come back after initial treatment. Researchers want to compare two approaches: one that uses a combination of surgery followed by additional therapy (both before and after surgery) and another that only uses therapy after surgery. The goal is to see which method is more effective in helping patients recover.

To be eligible for this trial, participants should be between 18 and 70 years old and have a confirmed diagnosis of recurrent NPC that can be surgically removed. They should not have any distant spread of the cancer and must be healthy enough to tolerate surgery and treatments. Patients who join the study can expect to receive care at multiple centers and will be closely monitored throughout the process. It’s important to know that there are specific conditions that would prevent someone from participating, such as having other serious illnesses or recent cancer treatments.
