Study summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the survival benefit of neoadjuvant anti-PD-1 immunotherapy plus TP chemotherapy compared with TP chemotherapy or up-front surgery in resectable locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Read the detailed description

On the basis of preliminary study, this study is to further verify the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant anti-PD-1 immunotherapy plus chemotherapy. The further purpose of this study is to investigate the survival benefit of neoadjuvant anti-PD-1 immunotherapy plus TP chemotherapy compared with TP chemotherapy or up-front surgery in resectable locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma. And on this basis, the investigators will explore the changes of the profiles and functions of immune cells within tumors, lymph nodes and peripheral blood after the experimental interventions, as well as their correlation with the patients' response and prognosis.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Event-free Survival (EFS) Rate on Each Treatment Arm.

    EFS is the time from the date of randomization to the date of first record of disease progression as defined by RECIST 1.1.

    Time frame: 24 months.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall Survival (OS) on Each Treatment Arm.

    OS is the time from randomization to death due to any cause.

    Time frame: 24 months.

  2. Radiographic Response.

    Clinical response of tumors and lymph nodes to neoadjuvant PD-1 blockade alone or neoadjuvant PD-1 blockade plus TPF induction chemotherapy, as evaluated by radiographic examinations and defined by RECIST 1.1. Clinical response of tumors and lymph nodes to neoadjuvant PD-1 blockade alone or neoadjuvant PD-1 blockade plus TPF induction chemotherapy, as evaluated by radiographic examinations and defined by RECIST 1.1.

    Time frame: 8 weeks.

  3. Pathologic Response.

    Pathologic response of resected tumors and lymph nodes to neoadjuvant PD-1 blockade alone or neoadjuvant PD-1 blockade plus TPF induction chemotherapy. Pathologic response is defined as sum of pathologic complete response and major pathologic response. Pathologic complete response is defined as the absence of viable residual tumor in resected specimen. The rate of major pathologic response, defined as \<10% residual viable tumor cells in the resected specimen.

    Time frame: 8 weeks.

  4. Adverse Events (AEs).

    Number of participants experiencing any sign, symptom, disease, or worsening of preexisting conditions temporally associated with the experimental interventions or irrespective of the experimental interventions.

    Time frame: 24 months.

Other outcomes

  1. Changes in the Level of Circualting Exosomal PD-L1.

    The level of circulating exosomal PD-L1 at serial time points pre- and on-treatment, as detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

    Time frame: 24 months.

ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Nov 2023 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jul 2026, 31 months after the start.

Of 66 phase 3 interventional studies under Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck, half reached primary completion within 70 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 38 and three quarters within 121. This study's planned 31 months is below that.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Apr 2, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
