In this study, the investigators aim to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) and side effects of radiotherapy (RT) and concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients with a satisfactory tumor response (complete response or partial response) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT).

RECRUITINGProgress Free Survival (PFS)
PFS means assignment to the date of any local or distant progress of the disease.
Time frame: 3 years after the inception assignment
Overall Survival (OS)
The overall survival denote to assignment to date of death from any cause.
Time frame: 3 years and 5 years after the inception of the assignment
Adverse Events
Observe and record the toxicity profile (including but not limit to mucositis, liver and kidney function, et al.) according NCI-CTCAE (3rd edition) during the neoadjuvant chemotherapy, chemoradiation and follow-up.
Time frame: Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 100 days and every 3 months thereafter for 5 years
