Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study enrolls patients who have experienced local recurrence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) with or without regional recurrence. The treatment regimen includes an induction phase with MRG003 at 2.0 mg/kg (D1) combined with Tislelizumab 200 mg (D1), administered weekly for 6 cycles. This is followed by maintenance therapy consisting of Capecitabine (650 mg/m², twice daily on days 1-21) in combination with Tislelizumab, continued for up to 1 year or until disease progression.

- description
- The treatment regimen comprises an induction phase with MRG003 at 2.0 mg/kg (administered on Day 1) in combination with Tislelizumab 200 mg (also on Day 1), delivered every three weeks for a total of six cycles. Upon achieving an objective response (ORR), patients will proceed to maintenance therapy, which consists of Capecitabine (650 mg/m², administered twice daily on Days 1-21) in conjunction with Tislelizumab. This maintenance phase will continue for up to one year or until disease progression is observed.

Exclusion Criteria: \*\*Exclusion Criteria:\*\* 1. Previous treatment with other PD-1 antibodies or immunotherapy targeting PD-1/PD-L1 resulting in Grade III or higher immune-related adverse reactions. 2. Residual toxic effects from prior anti-tumor treatments (including immunotherapy, targeted therapy, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy) (excluding alopecia, fatigue, and Grade 2 hypothyroidism) or clinically significant laboratory abnormalities higher than Grade 1 (CTCAE v5.0). 3.
