Exploring the Safety and Efficacy of Benmelstobart Combined with Anlotinib and Chemotherapy as Neoadjuvant Therapy Followed by Surgery and Postoperative Radiotherapy in Patients with Locally Advanced Oral Cancer This is a single-center, Phase II study targeting patients with stage III-IVb locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The neoadjuvant therapy consists of Benmelstobart combined with Anlotinib and chemotherapy for 3 cycles (21 days per cycle). Surgery is performed within 2 weeks after completing neoadjuvant therapy. Postoperative adjuvant treatment is selected based on pathological grading: Group A (Pathological Complete Response, pCR): Postoperative radiotherapy (RT) alone: 40Gy/5 weeks. Group B (Major Pathological Response, MPR): Postoperative radiotherapy (RT) alone: 50Gy/5 weeks. Group C (Partial Pathological Response/No Pathological Response): Low-to-intermediate risk patients (no extracapsular nodal extension and negative margins): RT: 60Gy/6 weeks. High-risk patients (extracapsular nodal extension and/or positive margins): Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT): 60-66Gy/6-6.6 weeks + Cisplatin: 60mg/m² every 3 weeks, 2-3 cycles. Additionally, all patients will receive adjuvant Benmelstobart 3-4 weeks after surgery, followed by Benmelstobart maintenance therapy (total treatment duration of 1 year).

Neoadjuvant Treatment Regimen : Benmelstobart: 1200mg, Day 1, IV (21 days per cycle); Anlotinib: 10mg, Days 1-14, orally (21 days per cycle); Cisplatin: 60mg/m², Day 1, IV (21 days per cycle); Albumin-bound Paclitaxel: 260mg/m², IV infusion, Day 1 (21 days per cycle). Total of 3 cycles. Surgery is performed within 2 weeks after completing neoadjuvant therapy. Postoperative adjuvant treatment is selected based on pathological grading: Group A (pCR): Postoperative RT alone: 40Gy/5 weeks. Group B (MPR): Postoperative RT alone: 50Gy/5 weeks. Group C (partial pathological response/no pathological response) : low and intermediate-risk patients: RT: 60Gy/6w; High-risk patients: CCRT: 60-66Gy/6-6.6w + cisplatin: 60mg/m2 Q3W, 2-3 cycles. All patients also received adjuvant Benmelstobart 3-4 weeks after surgery, as well as maintenance Benmelstobart for a total duration of 1 year.
