In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC) frequently metastasizes to cervical lymph nodes, and the extent of neck dissection remains an area of ongoing debate in patients with clinically node-positive (cN1) disease. While modified neck dissection (MND, levels I-V) is widely practiced, selective neck dissection (SND, levels I-IV) may provide equivalent oncologic outcomes with reduced surgical morbidity. However, high-quality randomized evidence comparing these approaches is lacking. The ExteNT N1 Trial is a prospective, randomized, open-label, parallel-group clinical trial designed to compare selective neck dissection (levels I-IV) with modified neck dissection (levels I-V, preserving the spinal accessory nerve, internal jugular vein, and sternocleidomastoid muscle) in patients with resectable cN1 oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma. Eligible participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ra
