About this study

Official title: Can Postoperative Radiotherapy be Omitted for Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Patients Underwent Neoadjuvant Therapy and Surgery? - A Retrospective Cohort Study

The treatment guideline for locally advanced resectable oral squamous cell carcinoma (LAROSCC) is surgery + postoperative radiotherapy/chemoradiotherapy. Though the treatment is intensive with serious harm to quality of life, the survival of patients is poor. Neoadjuvant therapy has been evaluated in a number of clinical trials for LAROSCC, but failed to directly improve the overall survival. On the other hand, de-escalation of treatment followed by neoadjuvant is also been explored with some promising results. This study is to retrospectively include patients with LAROSCC who received neoadjuvant therapy and surgery. Survival between patients in two cohorts (cohort 1: received postoperative radiotherapy, cohort 2: received no postoperative radiotherapy) are to be compared.

Study groups in NCT05455632
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group1:PORTOral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients received neoadjuvant therapy, surgery, and postoperative radiotherapy.
Group2:non-PORTOral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients received neoadjuvant therapy and surgery, without postoperative radiotherapy

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. OS

    Overall survival

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. LRFS

    Local recurrence-free rate

    Measured: 24 months

  2. QOL

    Quality of life (QOL), according to the QLQ-C30 scoring manual, the final QOL scores of each field are transformed into standardized scores within 0-100 through linear transformation

    Measured: 24 months

  3. OS-MPR

    Overall survival for patients obtained major pathological response (MPR) from neoadjuvant therapy

    Measured: 24 months

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

OS (time frame: 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05455632, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
