Abstract Background Over-expression of cyclooxygenase-2 COX-2 enzyme has been reported in nasopharyngeal carcinoma NPC . However the prognostic significance of this has yet to be conclusively determined. Thus from our randomized trial of radiation versus concurrent chemoradiation in endemic NPC we analyzed a cohort of tumour samples collected from participants from one referral hospital. Methods 58 out of 88 patients
