Active clinical trials for "Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck"

This is a randomized open-label multicentre phase III superiority study of the effect of adding SABR to the standard of care treatment pembrolizumab on progression free survival in patients with oligometastases of a squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), histological confirmation of the primary disease at first diagnosis, and PD-L1 CPS ≥1. After eligibility check and signing informed consent, all patients will be prospectively enrolled in a 1:1 ratio between current standard of care treatment (pembrolizumab, Arm 1) vs. SABR + standard of care treatment (Arm 2) to oligometastases. Any radical treatment to the synchronous primary/ recurrent primary tumor and/or involved cervical nodes (surgery or radiotherapy), as decided by the local tumor board/ treating physicians, should be completed prior to enrolment.Surgical removal of metastases is allowed for diagnostic purposes or for brain metastases, as long as these metastases count toward the total number of 5 and at least one metastasis is left for treatment with SABR. Such surgical procedures should be performed prior to enrolment.

This clinical trial studies the use of "smart" body-weight scales to monitor weight and nutrition among patients with head and neck cancer undergoing radiation therapy. Malnutrition affects 30-50% of patients diagnosed with head and neck cancer, and approximately 30% of patients have malnutrition prior to diagnosis. "Smart" body weight scales can possibly make self-weighing easier, faster, and more accurate through weight recordings through mobile applications available for "smart" scales. This has the potential to maximize nutritional guidance through quick weight updates, possibly delaying or removing the use of patient enteral feeding (tube feeding). By avoiding or minimizing the use of enteral feeding during radiation therapy, the risk of long-term tube dependence and swallowing ability complications may be reduced.

To evaluate the design, safety and efficacy of OralViome Cancer Testing system in the early detection of Oral and Throat Cancers using saliva metatranscriptomic analysis. This study will recruit only at existing clinical sites and will NOT use any additional clinical sites.

This is a prospective, open-labelled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Camrelizumab in Combination With Apatinib mesylate Plus Albumin-bound paclitaxel and cisplatin as the First Line Treatment of Metastatic or Recurrent, UnresectableHead and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma. The objective response rate (ORR) will be evaluated as the primary endpoints.

This is a multicenter, multi-arm trial evaluating anti-tumor activity, safety, and immune infiltration of IO102-IO103 in combination with pembrolizumab as neoadjuvant and post-surgery treatment. This proof-of-concept trial will include patients with resectable tumors in at least 2 indications.

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the antitumor activity and safety of novel immunotherapy combinations compared with dostarlimab in participants with Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) positive Recurrent/Metastatic (R/M) Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC).

This is a study of oral nisin administration in patients with OSCC who are undergoing complete surgical resection surgery with or without adjuvant radiation/chemoradiation as part of their routine care at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF).

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of ficlatuzumab plus cetuximab compared to placebo plus cetuximab in participants with recurrent/metastatic (R/M) HPV-negative Head and Neck Cancer. The primary hypothesis is that ficlatuzumab combined with cetuximab is superior to cetuximab alone in terms of progression-free survival and/or overall survival.

This multi-site, Phase 1/2 clinical trial is an open-label study to identify the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO212 for the treatment of patients with radiographically-confirmed progression of Astrocytoma IDH-mutant, Glioblastoma IDH-wildtype, and the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO212 when given with select SOC for the treatment of solid tumor patients with radiographically confirmed uncontrolled brain metastasis. The study will have three phases, Phase 1, Phase 2a and Phase 2b.

Cancer of the oropharynx (middle, side and back walls of the throat; back of the tongue; soft palate, and tonsils), or oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC), has been on the rise in the United States. Human papillomavirus (HPV) has been recognized in many of these cancers, and testing for HPV has contributed to the higher reported rates of OPSCC. In this study, our goal is to develop a new test that can detect certain HPV proteins in the blood or saliva to help improve detection of OPSCC.
