The study employs a Simon two-stage design. After 12 evaluable participants start treatment with at least 2 participants experiencing no grade 3 or higher TRAEs during induction therapy, then enrollment will continue to the target number of participants of 26. Participants will receive treatment for three cycles or until disease progression, they experience unacceptable side effects, their condition changes rendering them unacceptable for further treatment, or they withdraw from the study. Participants will be followed for two years from registration. Coherus Biosciences, Inc. is supporting this research study by providing the study drug, toripalimab, and funding for research activities. The U.S. FDA has not approved toripalimab for CPS-positive locally advanced HNSCC but has approved it for other forms of head and neck cancer. Toripalimab is a lab-made antibody that works by allowed the immune system to attack cancer cells more effectively. Toripalimab is currently sold as LOQTORZI and is used with cisplatin and gemcitabine to treat nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The U.S. FDA has approved cisplatin and docetaxel as a treatment option for multiple types of cancers, including head and neck small cell carcinoma. Cisplatin is a chemotherapy agent that works by binding to cancer cells and initiating cell death. Docetaxel is a chemotherapy agent made from a compound found in the European yew tree. Docetaxel works by stabilizing tiny structures within cancer cells, prevent cell growth and, ultimately leading to cell death.
