First seen May 01, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study looks at whether giving a lower dose of radiation after a good response to initial chemotherapy is as effective as the standard higher dose for people with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-related nasopharyngeal cancer. The goal is to reduce long-term side effects like hearing loss and dental problems while still controlling the cancer. About 66 adults with stage III or IVA disease will take part.
