Treatment outcomes after reduction of the target volume of intensity-modulated radiotherapy following induction chemotherapy in patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma: A prospective, multi-center, randomized clinical trial

To investigate whether reducing the target volume of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) after induction chemotherapy (IC) improves the quality of life (QOL) in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) without decreasing the local control and survival rate. A total number of 212 NP...

description To investigate whether reducing the target volume of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) after induction chemotherapy (IC) improves the quality of life (QOL) in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) without decreasing the local control and survival rate. A total number of 212 NPC patients staged as III–IVb were randomly assigned to group A (n=97) or group B (n=115) in this prospective clinical trial. All patients received IC followed by cisplatin concurrent with IMRT. IMRT was planned using the images of pre-IC in group A and post-IC in group B. The dose received by normal tissues in group B was lower than that of group A (P
