Summary

This was a phase II clinical study. Patients with histologically confirmed, resectable, locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) without distant metastasis were enrolled. Enrolled patients received three cycles of neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy. Radical surgery was performed 3-5 weeks after completion of the third neoadjuvant cycle, with the requirement of achieving negative surgical margins (R0 resection). Adjuvant radiotherapy was administered based on postoperative pathological findings.
