Article Synopsis
  • The study compared the effectiveness and side effects of two treatments for locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma: radiotherapy with nimotuzumab (N) and chemoradiotherapy (CRT).
  • Data from 87 patients showed no significant difference in overall survival between the two groups, with 4-year survival rates of 37.1% for N and 40.7% for CRT.
  • However, patients in the N group experienced fewer severe late radiation injuries compared to those in the CRT group, suggesting that N may be a safer option despite similar effectiveness.
