Medications for nasopharyngeal cancer are used to treat this form of cancer — in addition to other head and neck cancers. They broadly work by targeting and killing cancer cells or stopping their growth. Common classes include chemotherapy agents and immunotherapies. Chemotherapy agents like cisplatin are often given as injectable treatments. Immunotherapies like toripalimab (Loqtorzi) are available in injectable forms as well.
