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

This is a phase 1 study (the first step in testing a new drug or combination, to see how safe the drug and/or combination are) of investigational agent BYL719 in patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer (LA-SCCHN) in combination with standard radiation and chemotherapy (cisplatin). BYL719 is a new drug that is able to bind (attach to) and block a protein called PI3K-alpha. PI3K-alpha is part of an important pathway called EGFR/PI3K/Akt. A pathway is a series of chemical reactions among proteins in the cells that are involved in the support of normal cellular function. If the pathway is too active, due to changes in those proteins, the pathway can lead to tumor cell growth, survival and invasion. BYL719 has been shown to stop cancers in laboratory and animal studies. This study is the first time BYL719 will be combined with radiation and chemotherapy.

The general aim of the study is to evaluate the anti-tumour activity and the tolerance profile of Pembrolizumab + RT in comparison to cetuximab + RT in patients with locally advanced HNSCC and to explore potential correlations between treatment outcome and the immune landscape.

This study will evaluate the safety of adding nivolumab to several chemotherapy platforms with weekly cisplatin, high-dose cisplatin, cetuximab or radiation therapy alone.

This is a non-randomized, phase II, open label study of postoperative concurrent chemoradiotherapy with docetaxel for high-risk squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck(HNSCC).The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of concurrent chemoradiotherapy with docetaxel in HNSCC patients.

The primary goal of this Phase 1 study is to characterize the safety and tolerability of tebotelimab and establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of tebotelimab in advanced solid tumors, and tebotelimab in combination with margetuximab in HER2+ advanced solid tumors. Pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics (PD), and the anti-tumor activity of tebotelimab will also be assessed.

This phase I trial studies how well durvalumab with or without tremelimumab works in treating participants with stage II-IVA oropharyngeal squamous cell cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab and tremelimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness (how well the drug works), safety, and tolerability of the investigational drug combination of palbociclib (Ibrance) plus carboplatin in patients with metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer.

The purpose of this trial is to determine the efficacy of the immunotherapy with MVX-ONCO-1 in patients with advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. MVX-ONCO-1 consists of dead tumor cells from the patient itself and genetically modified cells within a capsule. The whole treatment takes 9 weeks. At weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8, the tumor cells are injected underneath the skin and two capsules are implanted for a week. At weeks 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 9 the capsules are removed again. The patients are then followed-up for 5 years.

This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center, global, Phase III study to determine the efficacy and safety of MEDI4736 + tremelimumab combination therapy and MEDI4736 monotherapy versus SoC therapy in the target patient population.

This is a multicenter, open-label, dose-exploration and dose-expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, antitumor activity, PK, pharmacodynamics, and immunogenicity of MEDI4736 in combination with tremelimumab in subjects with recurrent/metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
