Compares treatment options for Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Official title Neoadjuvant Anti-PD-1 and TP Versus TPF on Pathological Response in OSCC
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05125055
What this study is testing
What is Toripalimab (anti-programmed death-1 inhibitor)?
Toripalimab (anti-programmed death-1 inhibitor) is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for oral squamous cell carcinoma.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- To compare the pathological efficacy of neoadjuvant Toripalimab and Albumin paclitaxel /Cisplatin (TTP) with Docetaxel/ Cisplatin/ 5-flurouracil (TPF) for patients with locally advanced resectable oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), and to determine the safety of neoadjuvant TTP. In order to explore a better protocol of neoadjuvant therapy to improve the efficacy in patients with locally advanced OSCC.
