Multimodal Evaluation-Guided Surveillance-Intervention With Endoscopic Selective Neck Dissection for Post-Radiotherapy N3 Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
Sponsor: Xuelei Ma MD
Summary
This randomized trial evaluates a multimodal surveillance strategy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with high-risk N3 cervical lymph node involvement after radiotherapy. Patients are assigned to standard follow-up or an enhanced strategy using CEUS, imaging, and EBV DNA for risk assessment. The intervention group uses multimodal evaluation to identify high-risk patients who may undergo multidisciplinary review and selective neck dissection when indicated. The primary endpoint is failure-free survival (FFS). Secondary endpoints include OS, LRRFS, DMFS, and safety .

Multimodal Evaluation-Guided Surveillance Strategy
Participants underwent multimodal follow-up evaluation after radiotherapy. Endoscopic selective neck dissection was performed only in participants with suspicious residual cervical lymph nodes identified by multimodal evaluation and with surgical indications.
