Sponsor's own description
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of sequential chemoradiotherapy (induction chemotherapy + intensity-modulated radiotherapy +adjuvant chemotherapy) with induction chemotherapy plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), in order to confirm the value of sequential chemoradiotherapy in NPC patients.
