OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical effect of concurrent chemoradiotherapy combined with nituzumab in the treatment of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma in Guangxi,Yunnan and Guizhou.METHODS A total of 80 patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma who were pathologically confirmed and admitted to Affiliated Hospital of Youjiang Ethnomedicine from July 2021 to July 2022 from ethnic minority areas near the border of Guangxi,Yunnan and Guizhou were selected as the subjects of this study.They were randomly divided into control group(standard concurrent chemoradiotherapy)and observation group(combined treatment with nituzumab on the basis of control group),with 40 cases in each group.The levels of tumor markers,oxidative stress indicators,adverse reactions,complications,and recent clinical efficacy of the two groups were compared.RESULTS After treatment,the levels of superoxide dismutase(SOD),cytokeratin 19 fragment antigen21-1(CYFRA21-1),squamous cell carcinoma associated antigen(SCCAg)and serum ferritin(SF)were significantly decreased in both groups,while nitric oxide(NO)and malondialdehyde(MDA)were significantly increased.The levels of SCCAg,SF,CYFRA21-1,NO and MDA in observation group were lower than those in control group,and the level of SOD was higher than those in control group(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the objective response rate(ORR)in the observation group was increased(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSION Concurrent chemoradiotherapy combined with nituzumab can effectively improve the short-term survival rate and clinical efficacy of patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma,regulate tumor markers and oxidative stress levels,and alleviate the disease.
