NCT ID NCT05524168
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase II trial is testing whether combining targeted radiation (SBRT) with an immunotherapy drug (camrelizumab) and standard chemotherapy can help control nasopharyngeal cancer that has spread to a few other parts of the body. The study involves 41 participants who have not had prior treatment for their metastatic disease. The main goal is to see how long the cancer stays under control.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Camrelizumab (PD-1 antibody), gemcitabine, cisplatin, and SBRT (radiation)
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option to control cancer spread and delay progression in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma that has spread to a few spots.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 41 participants and no comparison group. The treatment may cause significant side effects from chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiation, and may not improve survival.
