Brief summary
This is a phase 2, single-arm clinical trial, with the purpose to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of PD-1 Blockade camrelizumab combined with induction chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy and as adjuvant monotherapy in patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
Detailed description
All participants from 3 hospitals will receive induction camrelizumab therapy at least one cycle (every 3 weeks) followed by definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy. After 4\ 6 weeks of the completion of radiotherapy, adjuvant camrelizumab therapy will begin every 3 weeks for 16 cycles (1 year) or continue until progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Interventions
200 mg, intravenous infusion over 30 minutes (Q3W); 1\~3 cycles of camrelizumab before radiotherapy and camrelizumab are maintained for 16 cycles (1 year) after the end of radiotherapy.
cisplatin is given at a dose of 40 mg/m2 via intravenous infusion during radiotherapy and starts on the 1st day of radiotherapy every week for 6 cycles.
70 Gy/ 35 fractions/7 weeks, 5 fractions/week, 1 fraction/day.

Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| EFFICACY Progress-free survival (PFS) | 2 years | Defined as time from randomization to locoregional or distant metastasis relapse or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| EFFICACY Overall survival (OS) | 2 years | Overall survival is measured from day of diagnosis until death due to any cause or the latest known date alive. |
| EFFICACY Objective response rate (ORR) | 2 years | Defined as a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) from enrolled until disease progression or death due to any cause. |
| EFFICACY Duration of response (DOR) | 2 years | Defined as the time from the first assessment of CR or PR to the first assessment of disease progression or death due to any cause. |
| SAFETY Incidence rate of adverse events (AEs) | 2 years | Analysis of adverse events (AEs) are based on treatment-related AEs (trAEs) and immune-related AEs (irAEs), and all-grade AEs and grade 3-4 AEs, according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 5.0. |
