Neoadjuvant Becotatug Vedotin Plus Pucotenlimab in Locally Advanced Oral and Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC)

Официальное название

A Single-Arm, Prospective Phase II Clinical Study of Becotatug Vedotin Combined With Pucotenlimab as Neoadjuvant Therapy in Locally Advanced Oral and Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Обзор

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the combination therapy of Becotatug Vedotin with Pucotenlimab as a possible neoadjuvant therapyand for locally advanced oral/pharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

Подробное описание

Approximately 60% of patients with oral/oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) are found to be in the local advanced stage. Even if they actively undergo comprehensive sequential treatment such as surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, the 5-year survival rate is still less than 50%. According to both the NCCN and the CSCO head and neck cancer treatment guidelines, radical surgery is the main treatment strategy for locally advanced OSCC, and adjuvant radiotherapy or chemotherapy/radiotherapy. However, the high treatment failure rate and disease recurrence rate are still the fundamental reasons for its poor prognosis. In recent years, neoadjuvant therapy has been proven to reduce the burden of local diseases in multiple tumor types, thereby improving surgical outcomes, reducing the risk of distant metastasis, and predicting prognosis based on the patient's pathological response. The combination of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibodies and EGFR ADC drugs has a synergistic anti-tumor effect, and this combination therapy is worth exploring in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced oral/oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. This prospective, open label, single arm, phase II, single center exploratory study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination therapy of Becotatug Vedotin and Pucotenlimab as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with locally advanced oral/oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
• Participants must have adequate organ and marrow function as defined below: The function of important organs meets the following requirements: (1) normal bone marrow reserve function, white blood cell (WBC) ≥ 3.0 × 10 \^ 9/L; Neutrophil count (NEUT) ≥ 1.5 × 10 \^ 9/L, platelet count (PLT) ≥ 100 × 10 \^ 9/L, hemoglobin (Hb) ≥ 90 g/L; (2) Normal renal function or serum creatinine (SCr) ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) or creatinine clearance rate ≥ 50 ml/min (Cockcroft Gault formula); (3) Normal liver function or total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN); AST or ALT levels ≤ 3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN); (4) Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) ≤ 1 × ULN (if abnormal, FT3 and FT4 levels should be examined simultaneously. If FT3 and FT4 levels are normal, they can be included in the group).
