A Study Testing Emactinib Sulfate With Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy Before Surgery for Advanced Head and Neck Cancer

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a novel combination therapy for locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The therapy combines the JAK1 inhibitor Sulfamethoxazole, the anti-PD-L1 antibody Adebrelimab, and chemotherapy (Nab-paclitaxel + Cisplatin) as a neoadjuvant treatment (given before surgery). The main questions it aims to answer are: * For patients with resectable locally advanced HNSCC: Can this combination improve the pathological complete response (pCR) rate (the absence of viable cancer cells in the surgical specimen) compared to current neoadjuvant therapies? * For patients with potentially resectable or unresectable locally advanced HNSCC: Can this combination improve the objective response rate (ORR) (the percentage of patients with significant tumor shrinkage), potentially making surgery possible or reducing its scope? Researchers will also assess secondary outcomes including event-free survival (EFS), overall survival (OS), and the safety profile of the combination. Participants will: * Receive neoadjuvant treatment with the combination of Sulfamethoxazole, Adebrelimab, and chemotherapy. A key feature is the timed sequencing of the JAK inhibitor, which will be started on day 8 of each treatment cycle. * Be evaluated for surgery after the neoadjuvant treatment. For those who undergo surgery, the pathological response will be analyzed. * Have regular follow-up assessments, including imaging studies (such as CT or MRI scans) and safety monitoring, to evaluate long-term treatment response, survival, and side effects. * Provide tissue and/or blood samples for exploratory biomarker analysis (e.g., Interferon-Stimulated Gene signature) to help identify patients who benefit most from this treatment.

Stereotactic Post-operative Radiotherapy for Intraparotid Metastatic Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and side effects of stereotactic radiotherapy (5 sessions) against conventional (standard) radiotherapy (20-30 sessions) for the treatment of skin cancer involving the head and neck after surgical resection. Stereotactic radiotherapy works in the same way that conventional (standard) radiotherapy does to kill cancer cells by damaging their genetic material and stopping the cancer cells from making copies of themselves. This study will help the study doctors find out if this different approach is the same, better, or worse than the standard of care for your cancer.

Improved Oral Health in Head and Neck Cancer Survivors

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if an oral care programme can prevent or reduce late oral side effects in patients with head and neck cancer following treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can additional support from hospital dental care for cancer survivors, up to three years after completion of treatment, improve patients' oral health, nutritional status, quality of life, and reduce stress and anxiety compared to standard care? * Are there differences in oral health outcomes between younger and older individuals receiving additional support from hospital dental care? * Can additional support from hospital dental care for cancer survivors, up to three years after completion of treatment, reduce the duration of sick leave and enhance patients' ability to return to work compared to standard care? * Can additional support from hospital dental care for cancer survivors, up to five years after completion of treatment, be cost-effective from a health economic perspective? Researchers will compare oral care programme to standard care to see if the programme works to improve oral health, reduce oral symptoms and problems, enhance quality of life and lower the economic costs of healthcare Participants will: Participate in an oral care programme, every three months for three years.

Neoadjuvant Immunochemotherapy and Postoperative Adjuvant Immunotherapy for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Invading the Skull Base

This prospective, single-arm, Phase II clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab combined with chemotherapy as neoadjuvant therapy and postoperative adjuvant immunotherapy in patients with skull base-invading head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. The primary objectives are to address the following questions: * What are the objective response rate and pathological response of tislelizumab combined with chemotherapy as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with skull base-invading head and neck squamous cell carcinoma? * Can neoadjuvant therapy convert unresectable skull base-invading head and neck squamous cell carcinoma into a resectable condition? * Can adjuvant immunotherapy after neoadjuvant therapy prolong patients' recurrence-free survival and overall survival? The researchers will administer neoadjuvant therapy (tislelizumab combined with chemotherapy) and adjuvant immunotherapy to patients with skull base-invading head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and assess the treatment's efficacy and safety. Participants will: * Receive neoadjuvant therapy every 3 weeks (tislelizumab 200mg on Day 1, nab-paclitaxel 260mg/m² on Day 1, cisplatin 75mg/m² on Days 1-3) for 3 cycles. * Undergo surgical treatment within 3 weeks after completing neoadjuvant therapy. * Receive (chemo)radiotherapy 4-6 weeks after surgery. * Receive adjuvant immunotherapy (tislelizumab 200mg) every 3 weeks after (chemo)radiotherapy for 8 cycles.

Surufatinib Combined with Envolizumab As Second-line Treatment for Recurrent/Metastatic HNSCC

This study is a prospective,open-label,single-arm clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of s Surufatinib combined with envolizumab as second-line treatment of recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma . envolizumab: 300 mg subcutaneously every 3 weeks (Q3W); Surufatinib : 200 mg orally within 1 hour after breakfast, once daily continuously every 3 weeks as a treatment cycle until intolerable toxicity or disease progression. If any ≥ Grade 2 treatment-related adverse event occurs during treatment, the dose may be adjusted to 100 mg according to the investigator 's clinical assessment. The study is divided into 3 period: Screening, Treatment, and Follow-up. The treatment period is a 3-week treatment cycle. During the treatment period, tumor assessment will be performed by imaging method every 6 weeks (± 7 days) until disease progression (RECIST 1.1) or death (during treatment) or intolerable toxicity. The tumor treatment and survival status after disease progression should be recorded. Safety measures included: adverse events, laboratory tests, vital signs, and changes in electrocardiogram and cardiac ultrasound.
