Summary

This study looks at whether giving lower doses of radiation after a good response to initial chemotherapy can control EBV-associated nasopharyngeal cancer as well as standard radiation. About 66 people with stage III or IVA disease will receive either reduced or standard radiation. The goal is to maintain cancer control while reducing long-term side effects like hearing loss and dental problems.
