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 volunteersQualifiers
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

Treatments tested in this trial
albumin paclitaxel, cispatin, tislelizumab
DrugNeoadjuvant immunochemotherapy (2 cycles, and 21 days each cycle, 260mg/m2 albumin paclitaxel intravenously on day 1 and day 22, with 75mg/m2 of cisplatin and 200mg of tislelizumab) + radical surgery + adjuvant therapy (radiation/chemoradiation followed by 200mg of tislelizumab, every 3 weeks for one year)

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
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.
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.
Secondary outcomes
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.
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.
