In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is the sixth most common malignant tumor worldwide. For patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer, neoadjuvant therapy is recommended before surgery, including neoadjuvant chemotherapy and immunotherapy. There is a significant variation in patients' responses to neoadjuvant therapy, with approximately 37%-52% of patients achieving a complete pathological response after neoadjuvant therapy. Current research mainly focuses on the efficacy evaluation of the primary tumor, while there is less research on the treatment efficacy evaluation of cervical lymph nodes. In clinical practice, accurate assessment of the status of cervical lymph nodes after neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck can directly affect the choice of treatment plan by clinicians, reducing unnecessary neck dissection.
