(A) chemotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Other treatment of nasopharyngeal cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer chemotherapy, including neoadjuvant chemotherapy (peo-adjuvant chemotherapy), chemotherapy (adjuvant chemothera-py) and in the same period of radiotherapy (concomitant chemoradiotherapy). Commonly used chemotherapy regimens are: PF Programme (DDP + S-FU), Carboplatin ten S-Fu, Paclitakel + DDP, Paclitakel ten DDP + S-Fu and DDP + Gemcitabine and so on.
DDP: 80—100mg/m2 iv drip s Id (beginning the day before chemotherapy, a continuous water 3d) ,5-Fu: 800—1000mg/m2/d iv drip No. 1 — 5d continuous intravenous infusion repeated every 21d or: Carboplatin: 300mg/m2 or AUC = 6ivdrip first 1d5-Fu: 800 — 1000mg/m2 / d iv drip No. 1 — 5d continuous intravenous infusion repeated every 21d.

(3) the amount of radiotherapy after radical neck lymph node residual or recurrence.
(4) a higher differentiation of NPC, such as squamous cell carcinoma I, E-class, adenocarcinoma.
(5) Radioactive complications (such as radioactive sinusitis disease, radiation ulcer, etc.).
(C) of the NPC in the biological treatment
Is still in the experimental research and clinical trials.
(D) of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in Chinese medicine treatment
With radiotherapy and chemotherapy, radiotherapy and chemotherapy to reduce the response, righting due to this; individual cases have not advanced further radiotherapy or chemotherapy may also consider the symptomatic treatment of Chinese medicine alone.
