About this trial

This study is a phase II, open label, single-arm and exploratory clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to observe the efficacy and safety of consolidation immunotherapy with Toripalimab following postoperative radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy for patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC).

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Postoperative with adverse prognostic factors in patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Have received postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy (chemo) therapy, and the end of the treatment is not more than 2 months.

Greater than or equal to 18 and less than 70 years of age at time of study entry.

ECOG performance status of 0 or 1.

Disqualifiers

Is currently participating in or has participated in a study of an investigational agent within 4 weeks of the first dose of treatment or has not recovered (i.e., ≤ Grade 1 or at baseline) from adverse events due to agents administered more than 4 weeks earlier.

Has had another known invasive malignancy within the previous 5 years (With the exception of basal cell carcinoma of the skin, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, and papillary carcinoma of the thyroid, which has been cured).

If subject received major surgery for any other reason, they must have recovered adequately from the toxicity and/or complications from the intervention prior to starting therapy.
