Mucosal Melanoma of the Head and Neck

This bidirectional cohort study (retrospective + prospective) focuses on three key challenges in oral mucosal melanoma (OMM): clinical staging based on depth of invasion (DOI), molecular subtyping, and precision therapy. By integrating DOI-driven T-stage reclassification, genomic profiling, and longitudinal follow-up, we aim to build a population-specific, high-quality evidence resource to support refined staging, CDK4-targeted treatment, and prognostic modeling for Chinese OMM patients.

This is an open-label, single center, one cohort, non-randomized, phase II study. The aim is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of hypofractionated radiotherapy (HRT) and pembrolizumab on local tumor control in mucosal melanoma patients. Treatment effect will be compared with historical radiation therapy-alone control data.
