  • 8. Female subjects with fertility must undergo a pregnancy test (serum or urine) within 72 hours before the start of the study medication, and the result must be negative. They must also be willing to use a medically approved efficient contraceptive measure (such as an intrauterine device, contraceptive pill or condom) during the study period and within 90 days after the last administration of the study drug. For male subjects whose partners are women of childbearing age, they must agree to use effective contraception or have undergone surgical sterilization during the study period and within 90 days after the last administration of the study.
  • 9. There is no history of allergy to related drug components.
  • 10. The subjects voluntarily joined this clinical study and signed the informed consent form.

Exclusion criteria

  • 1. Have received any anti-tumor treatment in the past, including radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine anti-tumor treatment (except for the treatment of malignant tumors that have been completely cured in the past and have no recurrence or metastasis for ≥5 years);
  • 2. Have undergone surgical operations targeting the primary tumor or lymph nodes in the past;
  • 3. Patients who have suffered from any malignant tumors in the past five years (except for cured basal cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ of the cervix);
  • 4. Patients with distant metastases;
  • 5.

However, patients who need medical intervention with bronchodilators cannot be included.
  • 6. Subjects who have received systemic treatment with corticosteroids (prednisone or other equivalent hormones >10 mg/ day) or other immunosuppressants within 2 weeks prior to the first administration. In the absence of active autoimmune diseases, inhalation or topical use of corticosteroids, as well as adrenal hormone replacement therapy with a dose of ≤10 mg/ day at the therapeutic dose of prednisone, is permitted.

  • 10. Urine routine test indicates urine protein ≥(++), or 24-hour urine protein content ≥1g, or severe liver and kidney dysfunction;
  • 11. Allergic to the test drug;
  • 12. Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection;
  • 13. Pregnant or lactating women; Subjects with fertility who are unwilling or unable to take effective contraceptive measures;

Treatment and study plan

Adebrelimab+Albumin paclitaxel +Cisplatin

Drug
  • Adebrelimab:1200mg, ivgtt, D1, Q3W;
  • Albumin paclitaxel :260mg/m2, ivgtt, D1, Q3W;
  • Cisplatin :60mg/m2, ivgtt, D1, Q3W.

Primary outcomes

  1. Pathological complete response (pCR)

    Time frame: Six months

    Pathological examination of the resected tissue samples did not reveal any residual tumor cells.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Major pathological response (MPR)

    Time frame: six months

    Major pathological response (MPR) is defined as the presence of active tumor tissue in surgical specimens ≤10% at the time of tumor resection.

  2. Surgical R0 resection rate

    Time frame: Six months

    The proportion of the resection margin without residual cancer cells

  3. Laryngeal function retention rate

    Time frame: six months

    It refers to the proportion of subjects whose laryngeal functions (including vocalization, breathing and swallowing functions) are successfully preserved during the treatment process through methods such as surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy or comprehensive treatment.

  4. The intensity of the surgery has decreased

    Time frame: six months

    The researchers determined whether the surgical intensity had decreased based on the subjects' conditions.

  5. Objective response rate (ORR)

    Time frame: one year

    It refers to the proportion of all subjects whose best overall response (BOR) was rated as complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to the RECIST 1.1 standard.

  6. Disease Control rate (DCR)

    Time frame: One year

    It refers to the proportion of all subjects whose overall response rate (BOR) was rated as complete response (CR), partial response (PR), and stable disease (SD) according to the RECIST 1.1 standard.

  7. Recurrence-free survival time (RFS)

    Time frame: Two years

    It refers to the period from the date of successful surgery to recurrence or death.

  8. Overall survival (OS)

    Time frame: Two years

    Defined as the period from the date of the first administration to the death of the subject for various reasons.

  9. Adverse event(AE)

    Time frame: Two years

    The incidence and severity of adverse events (AE) evaluated according to CTCAE 5.0
