4. PS (Performance Status) score 0-1.
5. Recurrent or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma that has failed first-line platinum-containing standard regimen and/or second-line standard regimen failure.
6. Previously received at least one line of systemic therapy. (Progression after radical concurrent chemoradiotherapy, during neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy, or within 6 months after the end of treatment can be recorded as 1-line therapy).
7. Recurrent or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma that has failed anti PD-1/L1: anti PD-1/L1 exposure at least 6 weeks, and the protocol used at the time of enrollment in this study meets one of the following two points: (1) Relapse during adjuvant therapy after radiotherapy, or relapse within 6 months after the end of treatment; (2) First-line treatment phase, progression during anti PD-1/L1 treatment, or progression within 3 months after the end of anti PD-1/L1 (whether combined with chemotherapy/targeting drugs);
8. At least one measurable lesion according to RECIST 1.1 criteria (the spiral CT scan diameter of the measurable lesion is ≥ 10 mm or the short diameter of the enlarged lymph node is ≥15mm ); lesions that have undergone local treatment can be selected as target lesions if there is clear evidence of significant progress compared to the end of treatment.
9. All acute toxicities of previous antitumor therapy have returned to ≤ grade 1 (according to NCI-CTCAE v5.0) or reached the level specified in the inclusion/exclusion criteria. (Except for partial toxicity, such as alopecia, hair color change, nail change, fatigue, etc., which do not pose safety risks to subjects).
10. Adequate main organ function. a. Hematology: neutrophil absolute value (ANC) ≥1.5×10\^9/L, hemoglobin (Hb) ≥ 9.0 g/dL, platelets ≥ 100×10\^9/L; b. Liver function: bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) (patients with known Gilbert disease and serum bilirubin level ≤ 3 times ULN could be enrolled; patients with liver metastasis, ≤ 5 times ULN), AST and ALT ≤ 3 times ULN, and alkaline phosphatase ≤ 3 times ULN; Albumin ≥ 3 g/dL; c. International Normalized ratio (INR) or prothrombin time (PT) or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) ≤ 1.5 times; d. Renal function: serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 ULN or creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min according to Cockcroft-Gault formula; e. Proteinuria: urinary protein/creatinine ratio (UPC ratio) \< 1.0. If the UPC ratio is less than or equal to 0.5, no further check is required. Patients with UPC ratio \> 0.5 and those with 24-hour urinary protein \< 1000 mg could be enrolled; f. Note: The UPC ratio of random urine is a quantitative estimate of 24-hour urinary protein, and the two have a good correlation. UPC ratio can be calculated using the following formula: (a) Urinary protein/urinary creatinine (if both protein and creatinine are mg/dL); (b) (urinary protein)\*0.088/ urinary creatinine (if urinary creatinine is mmol/L).
11. Survival is expected to be ≥ 3 months.
12. Female subjects with negative blood human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) (except for menopause and hysterectomy), female subjects of reproductive age and their partners using effective contraception during the trial period and within 6 months after the end of the last dose (e.g. Combined hormones \[containing estrogen and progesterone combined to inhibit ovulation, progesterone contraception combined to inhibit ovulation, IUD, intrauterine hormone release system, bilateral tubal ligation, vasectomy, abstinence from sex, etc.).
13. Male patients and their partners agree to use one of the contraceptive measures described in Article 9.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Recurrent lesions in local areas suitable for radical method (surgery) treatment.
2. Severe allergy to mitoxantrone or liposome (such as systemic rash/erythema hypotension, bronchospasm, angioedema, or anaphylaxis).
3. Prior treatment with doxorubicin or other anthracyclines and the cumulative doxorubicin doses greater than 350 mg/m\^2 (anthracycline equivalent: 1 mg doxorubicin = 2 mg epirubicin = 2 mg daunorubicin = 0.5 mg normethoxydaunorubicin = 0.45 mg mitoxantrone).
4. Estimated survival \< 3 months.
5. Diagnosed and/or treated with other malignancies within 5 years prior to initial administration. (except for cervical cancer, skin basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma, localized prostate cancer, and ductal carcinoma in situ after radical treatment).
6. Received surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, or any investigational drug or other antitumor therapy within the 4 weeks prior to initial administration (less than 2 weeks after palliative radiotherapy).
7. Patients with hypertension who cannot be reduced to the normal range by antihypertensive drugs (systolic blood pressure \> 140 mmHg/ diastolic blood pressure \> 90 mmHg); Have ≥ grade II coronary heart disease; Any of the following conditions occurred during the first 6 months of enrollment: Myocardial infarction, severe/unstable angina pectoris, NYHAII grade or higher cardiac insufficiency, grade 2 or higher persistent arrhythmias (including prolonged QTc interval \> 450ms in men), Women \> 470ms), any grade of atrial fibrillation, coronary/peripheral artery bypass grafting, symptomatic congestive heart failure, or cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attack or symptomatic pulmonary embolism); The ejection fraction of the heart is below 50% or below the lower limit of the range of laboratory tests at the study center.
