ECOG performance status 0-1 within 1 week before randomization; 9. Expected survival ≥ 3 months; 10. Adequate organ function within 1 week before randomization (no blood transfusion or colony-stimulating factors within 14 days prior to first dose) 11. Fertile participants must use ≥1 highly effective contraceptive method during the trial and for ≥6 months after last dose; females of childbearing potential must have negative pregnancy test within 7 days before enrollment. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma candidates eligible for curative local therapy (surgery or radiotherapy). 2. Imaging showing tumor invasion/encasement of major thoracic/cervical/pharyngeal blood vessels (may be exempted if investigators confirm no impact on trial participation). 3. History of other malignancies within 2 years prior to randomization (except radically treated early-stage malignancies). 4. Previous ≥Grade 3 immune-related adverse events during immunotherapy. 5. Uncontrolled pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, or ascites requiring repeated drainage. 6. Symptomatic/untreated/progressing CNS or leptomeningeal metastases. 7. History of ≥Grade 3 radiation pneumonitis; steroid-requiring (non-infectious) interstitial lung disease (ILD), current ILD, or ILD unexcludable by imaging; or severe respiratory impairment from pulmonary disease. 8. Poorly controlled cardiovascular/cerebrovascular conditions including. 9. Candidates for organ/marrow transplantation or previous transplant recipients. 10. Active systemic infections requiring IV antibiotics within 2 weeks pre-randomization. 11. Use of strong CYP2D6/CYP3A inhibitors/inducers within 2 weeks pre-randomization. 12. Systemic corticosteroid use (\>10mg prednisone/day equivalent) or immunosuppressants within 2 weeks pre-randomization. Exceptions: Topical/ocular/intra-articular/nasal/inhaled steroids; short-term prophylactic use for contrast agents. 13. Active/suspected autoimmune diseases. Exceptions: Hypothyroid patients on thyroid replacement; controlled type 1 diabetes with insulin. 14. Live/attenuated vaccines within 4 weeks pre-randomization (inactivated influenza vaccines permitted). 15. History of severe hypersensitivity to biologics/monoclonal antibodies or trial drug components. 16. Active tuberculosis. 17. Immunodeficiency disorders (HIV-positive or congenital/acquired immune deficiencies). 18. Active HBV/HCV infection or co-infection: 19. Pregnant/lactating women. 20. Investigators' judgment of clinical/lab abnormalities or other factors making participation inappropriate.
