The role of locoregional radiotherapy in patients with de novo metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (mNPC) is unclear.To investigate the efficacy and safety mNPC.Patients biopsy-proven mNPC, who demonstrated complete or partial response (RECIST v1.1) following 3 cycles cisplatin fluorouracil chemotherapy, were enrolled. Eligible randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either chemotherapy plus alone. Overall, 126 173 screened eligible study, randomized (n = 63) alone 63). Median (IQR) follow-up...

We analyzed the number of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and Epstein–Barr virus DNA (EBV DNA) for diagnosis, monitoring prognosis patients with metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (mNPC). The levels CTCs EBV were measured at baseline after first‐line chemotherapy in 148 mNPC prospectively enrolled between December 2014 August 2016. also collected 122 non‐mNPC cases within same time frame examining baseline. In 270 NPC patients, we observed improved specificity (86.0% vs . 41.0%) inferior...

Cytokines have an important role in the pathogenesis and disease progression of oral lichen planus (OLP). The aim this study was to investigate impact gene polymorphisms T helper cell subtype Th1 Th2 cytokines, interferon-γ (IFN-γ) interleukin-4 (IL-4), on OLP ethnic Chinese cohort. We investigated IFN-γ (IFNG) IL-4 (IL-4) 151 patients with 143 healthy controls using polymerase chain reaction sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) method. Each genotype also validated by direct DNA sequencing...

Communication is closely related to safe practice and patient outcomes. Given that most clinicians fall into routines when communicating with patients, it important address communication issues early. This study explores Taiwanese nursing students' experiences of patients cancer their families. Senior students who had cared for were recruited participate in focus group interviews. These semi-structured interviews recorded transcribed content analysis. Among the 45 participants, about 36%...

The National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines recommend intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) as the primary curative treatment for newly diagnosed nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), but radiation-related complications and relatively high medical costs remain a consequential burden patients. Endoscopic nasopharyngectomy (ENPG) was successfully applied in recurrent NPC with radiation free low costs. In this study, we examined whether ENPG could be an effective localized stage I NPC. Ten...

Despite their high accuracy to recognize oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) with cancer risk, non-invasive assays are poor in discerning whether the risk is or low. However, it critical identify levels, since high-risk patients need active intervention, while low-risk ones simply be follow-up. This study aimed at developing a personalized computational model predict level of OPMDs and explore its potential web application screening.Each enrolled patient was subjected following...

Background Toripalimab is a humanized immunoglobulin G 4 monoclonal antibody against programmed death 1. We aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of toripalimab in combination with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (rNPC). Methods conducted single-arm, phase II trial patients rNPC who had biopsy-proven disease were unsuitable local surgery. Eligible received IMRT administered via intravenous infusion 240 mg once every 3 weeks maximum seven...

Locoregional radiotherapy added to chemotherapy has significantly improved survival in de novo metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (mNPC). However, only 54% of mNPC patients who received sequential chemoradiotherapy have complete or partial response 3 months after radiotherapy. This Simon's optimal two-stage design phase II study (NCT04398056) investigates whether PD-1 inhibitor could improve tumor control combination with chemoradiation. The primary endpoint is objective rate (ORR) at...

Abstract Background Postradiation nasopharyngeal necrosis (PRNN) is a severe complication after radiotherapy in patients with carcinoma (NPC), which can severely affect the quality of life and threaten patient's life. Only 13.4%–28.6% be cured by traditional repeated endoscopic debridement. Here, we introduced an innovative curative‐intent surgery for PRNN evaluated its clinical efficacy. Methods Clinical data 72 who underwent radical necrectomy, followed reconstruction using posterior...

Background: Reportedly, nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients with MHC I Class aberration are prone to poor survival outcomes, which indicates that the deficiency of tumor neoantigens might represent a mechanism immune surveillance escape in NPC. Methods: To clearly delineate landscape NPC, we performed DNA and RNA sequencing on paired primary tumor, regional lymph node metastasis distant samples from 26 patients. Neoantigens were predicted using pVACseq pipeline. Subtype prediction model...
