Abstract

Objective: Evaluating response rate of concurrent chemoradiotherapy with IMRT technique in stage III-IVa nasopharyngeal carcinoma and safety profile of this regimen. Method: Descriptive, retrospective plus prospective study of 42 stage III-IVa nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients treated from April 2019 to March 2021. Results: All patients responded to treatment, of which complete response rate was 75.7%. The complete response rates in T1-T4 tumor were 100%, 87.5%, 90.9%, and 62.5%, respectively. The complete response rates in N0, N1, N2 disease were 100%, 94.7%, and 70.6%, respectively. Common hematological adverse events included grade 3 leukopenia (16.7%), grade 3 neutropenia (9.6%) and grade 4 neutropenia (2.4%). Non-hematological side effects included oral mucositis (11.6%), fatique (9.6%), and weight loss (4.8%). Conclusion: The regimen brings good response rate and safety.
