Interventions

DRUGNab-paclitaxel, cisplatin and Pembrolizumab combination

Pembrolizumab in combination with Nab-paclitaxel and cisplatin as induction therapy

PROCEDUREsurgery

Patients with PR but the maximum diameter of tumor \> 3cm or SD or PD can receive surgery directly.

RADIATIONAdjuvant Chemoradiotherapy

After surgery, adjuvant Chemoradiotherapy or radiotherapy will be given for patients with high-risk factors.

DRUGRadical concurrent chemoradiotherapy

Patients with PR and maximum tumor diameter ≤ 3cm or CR evaluated by MDT after 2 courses induction therapy can receive Radical concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Evaluation was performed 3 months after CRT. After MDT discussion, patients with high-risk factors need maintenance treatment.
