Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and survival outcomes of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) complicated by multiple primary malignancies (MPCs) in a real-world setting.Methods:A retrospective study was performed on 238 NPC patients with MPCs who received radical radiotherapy at Fujian Cancer Hospital between January 1st, 2004 and December 31st, 2023. The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and cumulative survival rate. Survival analysis was conducted using the Kaplan-Meier method with log-rank / Breslow tests, and univariate analysis of prognostic factors was performed using the Cox proportional hazards model.Results:A total of 246 primary malignant tumors were identified in 238 patients, involving 12 organ systems and 39 tumor types. The most common coexisting malignancies occurred in the respiratory and intrathoracic organs [25.2% (62/246)], followed by digestive organ malignancies [22.8% (56/246)], malignancies of the lip, oral cavity, and pharynx [22.8% (56/246)], and thyroid and other endocrine gland malignancies [15.4% (38/246)]. The median OS was 186 months, and the 3-, 5-, and 10-year cumulative survival rates were 90.84%, 85.25%, and 69.45%, respectively. Poorer survival was associated with male sex, age>48 years at onset, locally advanced disease (stage IVA), synchronous MPCs and/or digestive system malignancies, fewer total cycles of chemotherapy, and lack of concurrent or adjuvant chemotherapy.Conclusions:In patients with NPC, MPCs most frequently involve the respiratory system, digestive system, and head and neck organs (including the thyroid). Male sex, older age, locally advanced primary NPC, synchronous and/or digestive system MPCs, fewer chemotherapy cycles, and lach of concurrent or adjuvant chemotherapy were significantly associated with poorer prognosis.

Objective:To explore the suitable mouse strains,and establish stable human-miceX-GVHD model.Methods:This study selected the Nude Mice and NOD/SCID, and gave them sublethal dose of γ-ray irradiation whole body , and then intraperitoneal transplanted human peripheral blood mononuclear cells ( PBMC) to establish xenogeneic acute graft-versus-host disease model.By detection of human T cells in the mice′s tail venous blood,tissues,organs of the infiltration and other indicators (By flow cy-tometry and immunohistochemistry ) ,we compared the human immune cell infiltration rates in the two mouse model and recorded the survival time.Finally,we determined the appropriate strains of mice to establish X-GVHD.Optimization means were transfer ways and the appropriate amount of human PBMC ,and the best time to observe the changes of T cell phenotype and function.Results:The NOD/SCID mouse was more suitable for inducing human-mouseX-GVHD model,and there were no significant differences between intrap-eritoneal injection and intravenous injection.Transfer human PBMC more than 5 ×107 can establish human-mouseX-GVHD model.Using the optimized experimental conditions to establish the human-mouseX-GVHD model,we found the 7-11 days was the best time to observe the changes of T cell phenotype and function ,and the average survival time was(14.16±1.77)days.Conclusion:Human-miceX-GVHD model can be successfully established by intraperitoneal injection of 5×107 human PBMC into NOD/SCID, and the best time to observe the changes of T cell phenotype and function is between 7-11 days.
