About this trial

This is a randomized, phase III, prospective, multi-center trial in newly diagnosed nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients without distant metastasis. This study will evaluate whether omitting Level Va irradiation in patients without these risk features does not compromise regional control or survival, with the goal of providing robust evidence to guide further personalization of NPC radiotherapy.
