Effect of taxanes-based induction chemotherapy in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma: A large scale propensity-matched study

Abstract

In this large scale propensity-matched study, LA-NPC patients could not benefit from taxanes-based IC on the whole. But the risk of distant metastasis significantly decreased by above 10% for patients with T4N1-2M0 and stage IVb.
