About this study

Official title: A Bidirectional Observational Clinical Study of Tumor Regression Patterns in Patients With Locally Advanced Oral and Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Treated With Neoadjuvant Immunochemotherapy

A prospective collection of 35 cases was conducted at Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University. Patients diagnosed with locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (LA-OSCC) or locally advanced oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LA-OPSCC) from April 2023 onward, who received two cycles of neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy (tislelizumab + paclitaxel + cisplatin/carboplatin) at our institution, were included. The study analyzed treatment safety, efficacy, tumor regression patterns, 2-year progression-free survival (PFS), and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates.

Read the detailed description

This study retrospectively collected data from patients in 2023 and prospectively collected data from patients undergoing treatment at the same time. In terms of time type, it is a bidirectional study. Meanwhile, these studies are a single-arm, single-center study and belong to a case series study.

What is being measured

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

  1. 0bjective Response Rate

    According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. it isdefined as the proportion of patients who achieved Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response(PR).Complete Response (CR) was defined as disappearance of all target lesions. PartialResponse (PR) was defined as >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of targetlesions.

    Measured: 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Tumor regression pattern

    ①Concentric Shrinkage Mode (CS): Refers to a unified inward contraction of tumor cells toward the lesion center as a cohesive unit, without residual scattered tumor foci at the periphery.

    ②Non-Concentric Shrinkage Mode (NCS): Also termed "Dendritic Shrinkage" or "Nest-like/Marginal Shrinkage", characterized by: Heterogeneous regression of the tumor mass, manifesting as: a) Fragmentation of the primary lesion into discontinuous satellite nodules, OR b) Preservation of the original tumor dimensions with heterogeneously reduced density.

    Measured: 8 weeks

  2. two-year progression-free survival rate

    The proportion of patients who remain alive and progression-free for 2 years aftertreatment

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) and Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC), run by Zhujiang Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Aug 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Xiaozhi LV (+86-020-62782092, lxzsurgeon@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

0bjective Response Rate (time frame: 8 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Aug 2025.
