ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06059261

What this study is testing

What is Envafolimab and recombinant human endostatin combined with chemoradiotherapy?

Envafolimab and recombinant human endostatin combined with chemoradiotherapy is an investigational medicine, given as an injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This is a single-center, prospective, single-arm, phase II clinical study, to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of envafolimab combined with chemoradiotherapy and recombinant human endostatin in patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
