Half of participants will receive hyperfractionated IMRT, while the other half will receive conventional fraction IMRT.', 'detailedDescription': 'Local recurrence is one of the most challenging issues faced with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients. 8.4% to 10.9% of the patients developed recurrent diseases at the primary or/and regional site after definitive radiotherapy. Although some patients with limited recurrent lesions underwent surgery, the main treatment for these recurrent NPC patients was still re-irradiation.\n\nMultiple retrospective and prospective studies have reported: under the condition of conventional fraction IMRT with the total dose of 60 gray (Gy) (division 27 times, once a day, every 2.2Gy), you can get a better local tumor control rate and survival outcome. However, the patients still underwent some severe late complications including nasopharyngeal necrosis, nasopharyngeal bleeding, temporal lobe necrosis, with the incidence rates of 28.8%, 18.6%, 20.3%, respectively. Approximately 50% of recurrent NPC patients died of these severe late complications, significantly compromising the overall survival rate of the patients. Previous studies showed that hyperfractionated radiotherapy could reduce severe late complication rates significantly, without affecting the local control rate. Indeed, we found that under the condition of equal irradiation time and tumor equivalent dosage between hyperfractionated IMRT (total dose of 65Gy, division 54 times, twice a day, once 1.2Gy, irradiation interval of 6-8 hours) and conventional fraction IMRT (total dose of 60Gy, division 27 times, once a day, every 2.2Gy), the normal late responding tissues equivalent dosage( EQD2) significantly decreased compared with conventional fraction IMRT. Therefore, the use of hyperfractionated IMRT is expected to decrease severe late complications rates, thereby improving the quality of life and overall survival of patients.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '65 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* histologically approved WHO III patients received radical radiotherapy initially before recurrence (irradiation dosage \\> 66 Gy).\n\nthe interval time between initial treatment and relapse more than 1 year. recurrent Tumor stage2-4(rT2-4) Node stage0-2(rN0-2) Metastasis stage0(rM0) (rT2-4N0-2M0), overall stage II-IVa according to 2009 American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC/UICC) Tumor, Node, and Metastasis (TNM) staging system.\n\na Karnofsky performance status (KPS) score more than 70.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* a history of previous or synchronous malignant tumors. recurrent Node stage3(rN3), recurrent Metastasis stage1(rM1) according to 2009 AJCC/UICC TNM staging system.\n\npositive surgical margin after neck dissection. patients suffered with severe mental illness. severe diseases of the lung and cardiovascular system. severe hepatic and renal dysfunction.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02456506', 'briefTitle': 'Hyperfractionated Intensity-modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) Versus Conventional Fraction IMRT for Patients With Loco-regionally Recurrent Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Sun Yat-sen University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Multiple Centre, Randomised, Controlled Trial of Hyperfractionated IMRT and Conventional Fraction IMRT for Patients With Loco-regionally Recurrent Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'SYSU5010'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Hyperfractionated IMRT Group', 'description': 'IMRT (total dose of 65Gy, division 54 times, twice a day, once 1.2Gy, irradiation interval of 6-8 hours)', 'interventionNames': ['Radiation: Hyperfractionated IMRT']}, {'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Conventional Fraction IMRT Group', 'description': 'IMRT (total dose of 60Gy, division 27 times, once a day, every 2.2Gy)', 'interventionNames': ['Radiation: Conventional Fraction IMRT']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Hyperfractionated IMRT', 'type': 'RADIATION', 'armGroupLabels': ['Hyperfractionated IMRT Group']}, {'name': 'Conventional Fraction IMRT', 'type': 'RADIATION', 'armGroupLabels': ['Conventional Fraction IMRT Group']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '510060', 'city': 'Guangzhou', 'state': 'Guangdong', 'country': 'China', 'facility': 'Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 23.11667, 'lon': 113.25}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Ming-Yuan Chen, MD, PhD', 'role': 'STUDY_CHAIR', 'affiliation': 'Sun Yat-sen University'}, {'name': 'Yi Pan, MD, PhD', 'role': 'STUDY_DIRECTOR', 'affiliation': "Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital"}, {'name': 'Dong-Ping Chen, MD, PhD', 'role': 'STUDY_DIRECTOR', 'affiliation': 'Affiliated Cancer Hospital & Institute of Guangzhou Medical University'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Sun Yat-sen University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'MD, PhD', 'investigatorFullName': 'Ming-Yuan Chen', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Sun Yat-sen University'}}}}
