Study summary

This study aims to investigate toripalimab with chemotherapy in participants with nasopharyngeal cancer.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of toripalimab in combination with chemotherapy (cisplatin and gemcitabine), as measured by objective response rate (ORR) assessed by a Blinded Independent Central Review Committee (BICR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 in first-line recurrent metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer participants (both Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and non-EBV-associated).

Eligibility criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Histological or cytological confirmation of recurrent/ nasopharyngeal cancer with either EBV or non-EBV-associated cancer. The following subgroups are included:

    • EBER/EBV-negative (HPV+/-)
    • EBER/EBV-positive (HPV+/-)
  • Recurrent/metastatic (stage IV-B as defined by the International Union against Cancer [UICC] and American Joint Committee on Cancer [AJCC] staging system for nasopharyngeal cancer [NPC], eighth edition) or recurrent NPC after curative treatment. For recurrent NPC, more than 6 months between the last dose of radiotherapy or chemotherapy and the date of recurrence.
  • based on v 1.1 as determined by the site. Note: Lesions situated in a previously irradiated area are considered measurable if progression has been demonstrated in such lesions.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Disease that is suitable for local therapy administered with curative intent.
  • Prior systemic therapy administered in the recurrent or metastatic setting. Participants who develop disease recurrence within 6 months from curative intent chemoradiation will be excluded.
  • Rapidly progressing disease (e.g., tumor bleeding, uncontrolled tumor pain) in the opinion of the treating investigator.
  • Active or untreated central nervous system (CNS) metastases (e.g., brain or ), as determined on computerized tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evaluation during screening and prior radiographic assessments. Participants who have prior therapies for brain or leptomeningeal metastasis and have been stabilized ≥ 1 month and have discontinued systemic therapy (>10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent) ≥ 1 month prior to enrollment are eligible.

Other protocol-defined inclusion and exclusion criteria apply.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(5)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Metastases

Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.

Measurable disease

The amount of disease can be tracked with a defined measurement, so the study can see whether it shrinks or grows. It might be a tumour measured on a scan or, in some blood cancers such as myeloma, a marker measured in blood or urine.

The criteria or the study team say which measurement counts — having no tumour visible on a scan does not by itself rule you out.

RECIST

The standard rules for measuring tumours on CT or MRI scans, to tell whether a cancer is shrinking, stable or growing during treatment.

“Measurable disease per RECIST 1.1” usually means at least one tumour 10 mm or more at its longest on a CT scan, or a lymph node 15 mm or more across its short axis.

Leptomeningeal disease

Cancer that has spread to the leptomeninges, the thin layers covering the brain and spinal cord, and the fluid between them. It is not the same as brain metastases.

Criteria often treat it separately, and many studies leave it out even where treated brain metastases are allowed.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Toripalimab + cisplatin (or carboplatin) + gemcitabine

    Participants will receive the triple combination of cisplatin, gemcitabine and toripalimab (Chemotherapy-based treatment phase) followed by single-agent toripalimab (Maintenance treatment phase). The use of cisplatin can be substituted with carboplatin from cycle 2 onwards.

    Drug: Toripalimab · Drug: Cisplatin · Drug: Gemcitabine · Drug: Carboplatin

Interventions

  • Participants will receive toripalimab via intravenous infusion (IV) on Day 1 every 3 weeks (Q3W) during the Chemotherapy-based treatment phase and Maintenance treatment phase.

    Also known as: JS001, TAB-001, CHS-007

  • Participants will receive cisplatin via IV on Day 1 Q3W during the Chemotherapy-based treatment phase.

  • Participants will receive gemcitabine via IV on Day 1 and Day 8 Q3W during the Chemotherapy-based treatment phase.

  • In the event of cisplatin-related nephrotoxicity or at the discretion of the investigator due to cisplatin-related poor tolerability, carboplatin can substitute for cisplatin use from cycle 2 onward. These participants will receive carboplatin via IV on Day 1 Q3W during the Chemotherapy-based treatment phase.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jul 30, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
