About this trial

To evaluate the prognostic efficacy of neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy with tislelizumab, albumin paclitaxel and cisplatin followed by radical surgery and adjuvant therapy compared with standard therapy for patients with locally advanced and resectable oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS): 0-1

Histopathological diagnosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (including tongue, gums, cheek, floor of mouth, hard palate, and posterior molar region)

Primary tumor with a clinical stage of III/IVA (T1-2/N1-2/M0 or T3-4a/cN0-2/M0, AJCC 2018)

Patients must have at least one measurable lesion according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1)

Disqualifiers

Unresolved grade 2 [(Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE 5.0)] or higher toxic reactions caused by previous anticancer treatments

Known allergic reaction (grade 3-4) to any ingredients or excipients of the therapy

Known history of malignancy, unless been cured and no recurrence for 5 years

Known history of radiation to head and neck

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Rate of 2-year event-free survival

Event free survival is calculated from the date of randomization to local recurrence, regional recurrence, distant metastasis, disease progress, or death. The rate of 2-year event free survival is reported as the percentage of patients who are event free survival for 2 years from the date of randomization.

Time frame
2 years
2

Rate of 2-year overall survival

Overall survival is calculated from the date of randomization to death. The rate of 2-year overall survival is reported as the percentage of patients who are overall survival for 2 years from the date of randomization.

Time frame
2 years

Secondary outcomes

1

Rate of 2-year disease-free survival

Disease free survival is calculated from the date of randomization to local recurrence, locoregional recurrence, distant metastasis, or death. The rate of 2-year disease free survival is reported as the percentage of patients who are disease free survival for 2 years from the date of randomization.

Time frame
2 years
2

Rate of major pathological response

Major pathological response is based on the pathological examination on the post-operative specimens after neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy. The rate of major pathological response is reported as the percentage of patients who have major pathological response after NAT.

Time frame
6 months
