Extranodal extension (ENE) refers to the spread of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) outside the lymph nodes. It is a well-known factor that indicates a poorer prognosis and outcome for patients who have undergone surgical removal of the cancer. In such ...

The purpose of this research study is to determine the safety and tolerability of two dosing schedules of cemiplimab given in combination with cisplatin and docetaxel induction chemotherapy (TPI) in patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head ...

The number of elderly head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients is increasing; however, the evidence regarding the ideal treatment for this often vulnerable and frail patient cohort is limited. Although the benefit of concomitant chemotherapy has been r...

Study of NGM438 as Monotherapy and in Combination with Pembrolizumab in Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors

The goals of this clinical study are to learn about the safety, tolerability, dosing and effectiveness of the study drug, magrolimab in combination with other anticancer therapies in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).

This phase II trial studies the effect of pembrolizumab alone compared to the usual approach (chemotherapy [cisplatin and carboplatin] plus radiation therapy) after surgery in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that has come back (recurrent...

This is a Phase 2 study designed to determine the preliminary anti-tumor activity and confirm the safety of VV1 in combination with cemiplimab. The study will enroll patients with three distinct separate tumor cohorts. The cancers types are colorectal, head and neck...

The purpose of this research study is to investigate a shorter radiation treatment schedule for head and neck cancers in patients 70 years of age and older. Standard radiation treatment for head and neck patients normally requires that the patient travel to the ...

This study is being done to better understand whether or not cemiplimab by itself and in combination with other treatments given prior to surgery will cause your tumor to respond in a beneficial way; whether the drug(s) are safe and what side effects they cause; and...

This is a combination of 4 therapies, three of which are used to treat a single "target site" of your cancer (such as a lymph node or a single tumor), and the 4th is given directly into the blood stream (intravenous or "IV"). 1. Radiation: The target site --lymph nod...

This phase II/III trial studies how well radiation therapy works when given together with cisplatin, docetaxel, cetuximab, and/or atezolizumab after surgery in treating patients with high-risk stage III-IV head and neck cancer the begins in the thin, flat cells (squ...
