Which treatment is better than concurrent chemoradiotherapy about survival for stage III or IV locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma? An updated Bayesian network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
ConclusionInduction chemotherapy IC + CCRT provided better survival benefit than CCRT alone. CCRT + AC failed to increase survival benefit significantly compared to CCRT alone. More research about comparing IC + CCRT with IC + RT or CCRT + AC are needed.
