Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional
Official Title: Gemcitabine and Oxaliplatin in First Line Metastatic or Recurrent Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC)
Brief Summary:
Primary objective:
To evaluate the response rate of biweekly gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (the GEMOX regimen) in the first line treatment of metastatic or recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
