Summary

This phase 3 trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 antibody) and a targeted therapy (anlotinib) to standard chemotherapy and radiation can help prevent cancer from returning in people with high-risk, advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. About 442 adults aged 18-65 with stage III disease will be enrolled. The study compares the new combination against the current standard treatment to see if it improves 3-year survival without cancer progression.

Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with recurrent or distant metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma. * Pathologically confirmed keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma (WHO type I). * Receipt of systemic or topical glucocorticoid therapy within 4 weeks prior to enrollment. * Participation in another clinical trial of an investigational drug within 3 months prior to treatment. * Known history of allogeneic organ transplantation or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. * Patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, drug-induced pneumonitis, organizing pneumonia (i.e., bronchiolitis obliterans), radiation pneumonitis that is clinically symptomatic or requires steroid therapy, active pneumonitis, or other moderate-to-severe pulmonary diseases that significantly affect lung function. * Comorbidities requiring long-term immunosuppressive medication or systemic/topical corticosteroids at immunosuppressive doses. * Prior use of anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2, or anti-CTLA-4 antibodies (or any other antibodies targeting T-cell co-stimulatory or checkpoint pathways) with documented disease progression at the time of study entry. * Presence of any active autoimmune disease or history of autoimmune disease (including but not limited to: interstitial pneumonia, uveitis, enteritis, hepatitis, hypophysitis, nephritis). Patients with vitiligo or childhood asthma that has completely resolved and requires no intervention in adulthood may be included; patients requiring bronchodilators for medical management of asthma are excluded. * HIV-positive; HBsAg-positive with detectable HBV DNA copy number (quantitative detection ≥1000 cps/mL); positive hepatitis C antibody (HCV Ab) with detectable HCV RNA. * Receipt of any anti-infective vaccine (e.g., influenza vaccine, varicella vaccine) within 4 weeks prior to enrollment. * Positive pregnancy test in women of childbearing potential, or lactating women. * Inability to comply with scheduled follow-up due to psychological, social, family, or geographical reasons.
