This phase I, open-label, single-arm trial uses a "3+3" dose-escalation design to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efffcacy of intranasal WSK-IM05 vaccine combined with tislelizumab as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with resectable HPV-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Participants receive two cycles of WSK-IM05 (intranasal) and tislelizumab (200 mg IV) on day 1 of each 3-week cycle, followed by surgery. After surgery, patients receive standard of care (chemoradiotherapy or radiotherapy as indicated) plus 15 cycles of adjuvant tislelizumab. The main outcomes include dose-limiting toxicities and treatment-related adverse events.

RECRUITINGIncidence of Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)
Proportion of participants experiencing DLTs within the DLT observation period (first 21 days after the first dose), as defined per protocol.
Time frame: First 21 days after first dose of WSK-IM05
Incidence and Severity of Treatment-Related Adverse Events (TRAEs)
Type, incidence, severity (grade 1-5 according to CTCAE v5.0), and causality assessment of all treatment-related adverse events.
Time frame: From first dose through 30 days after last dose of WSK-IM05
Incidence of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Including immune-related adverse events (irAEs), injection/administration site reactions, allergic reactions, etc.
Time frame: From first dose through 30 days after last dose
Major Pathological Response (MPR)
Proportion of participants who undergo surgery with residual viable tumor ≤10% (%RVT ≤10%) in the tumor bed according to irPRC criteria, regardless of lymph node status.
Time frame: At time of surgery (approx. Week 6-10)
Pathological Complete Response (pCR)
Proportion of participants who undergo surgery with no residual viable tumor cells (%RVT = 0) in the tumor bed and resected lymph nodes according to irPRC criteria.
Time frame: At time of surgery (approx. Week 6-10)
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Proportion of participants achieving complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to RECIST 1.1 criteria.
Time frame: After 2 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy (prior to surgery, approx. Week 5-9)
Event-Free Survival (EFS)
Time from first dose to first occurrence of any of the following: disease progression during neoadjuvant therapy leading tolerability to undergo radical surgery; local, regional, or distant tumor recurrence after surgery; or death from any cause.
Time frame: From first dose up to approximately 3 years
