Neoadjuvant Tislelizumab Plus Chemotherapy for Resectable Locally-advanced Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

January 30, 2024 updated by: Xiang Lu

Neoadjuvant Tislelizumab (BGB-A317, Anti-PD-1 Antibody) Plus Nab-Paclitaxel and Carboplatin for Resectable Locally-advanced Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma : A Single-arm, Phase II Trial

For resectable squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck , novel therapeutic approaches are still needed to improve outcomes. Neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy is considered as a potentially effective strategy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant of tislelizumab combined with platinum doublet for resectable locally-advanced head and neck squamous-cell carcinoma .
