Inclusion criteria
. Age range: 18-65 years old;
. Diagnosed with nasopharyngeal carcinoma through histopathology or cytology;
. Diagnosed with other malignant tumors within 5 years prior to the first administration, excluding curative basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and/or excised carcinoma in situ.
. Symptomatic congestive heart failure, with echocardiogram indicating a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)\<50%.
. Individuals infected with acute or chronic active hepatitis B or C, with hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA\>2000IU/ml or 10\^4 copies/ml; Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA\>10\^3 copies/ml; Hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg) and anti HCV antibody were positive at the same time. After nucleotide antiviral treatment, if the score is lower than the above standard, it can be included in the group.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
. Past and current history of pulmonary fibrosis, interstitial pneumonia, pneumoconiosis, drug-related pneumonia, severe impairment of lung function, and other lung diseases.
. Individuals with active pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) who are currently receiving anti tuberculosis treatment or have received anti tuberculosis treatment within one year prior to their first dose.
. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected individuals (HIV 1/2 antibody positive), known syphilis infections requiring treatment.
. Severe infections that are active or poorly controlled clinically. Within 4 weeks prior to the first administration, there was a severe infection, including but not limited to hospitalization due to infection, bacteremia, or complications of severe pneumonia.
. An active autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment (such as the use of disease relieving drugs, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressants) has occurred within 2 years prior to the first administration. Allow the use of alternative therapies such as thyroid hormone, insulin, or physiological corticosteroids for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency. Known history of primary immunodeficiency. Only patients with positive autoimmune antibodies need to confirm the presence of autoimmune diseases based on the researcher's judgment.
