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

This research study is studying a new drug, NC318, as a possible treatment for advanced or metastatic solid tumors.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of Transoral Robotic Surgery (TORS) to identify small oropharyngeal carcinomas. Findings from this study will be used to better determine which patients may be suitable for more targeted radiotherapy that would lead to a reduction in the total amount of radiotherapy needed as part of their treatment. Reducing the amount of radiotherapy received has been found to reduce the risk of late complications and toxicity to the patient.The pathologic findings will then be used to determine patients who may be candidates for de-intensification of radiotherapy.

This is a non-randomized, phase II, open label study of apatinib mesylate tablets plus tegafur gimeracil oteracil potassium capsules induction chemotherapy in locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck patients who were judged surgically unresectable or appropriate for non-surgical definitive therapy.The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of apatinib mesylate tablets plus tegafur gimeracil oteracil potassium capsules in locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of INCAGN02385 in participants with advanced malignancies.

A small group of skin cancers of the head and neck, called resected cutaneous squamous carcinomas, are more aggressive than most cancers of this type, even after being treated with standard therapy. This trial will use stronger treatment to look at the safety and effectiveness (efficacy) of combining a drug called Pembrolizumab with radiation after a cancer has already been treated to suppress secondary tumor formation in high risk cutaneous squamous cell cancer of the head and neck. Primary Objective To assess safety by looking at the people with dose limiting responses

The main purpose of this study is to compare nivolumab and ipilimumab with the extreme regimen as first line treatment in patients with recurrent or metastatic squamous cell of the head and neck cancer

This pilot clinical trial studies how well durvalumab before surgery works in treating patients with oral cavity or oropharynx cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

The primary objectives of the trial is to examine the toxicities and efficacies of afatinib and pembrolizumab for recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

The main objective of this study is to assess safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of ABBV-368 plus tilsotolimod; ABBV-368 plus tilsotolimod and nab-paclitaxel; and ABBV-368 plus tilsotolimod, nab-paclitaxel, and ABBV-181 in participants with recurrent/metastatic (R/M) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).

Background: Some people who get head and neck cancer will need surgery to treat their cancer. Research suggests that immunotherapy drugs may help fight head and neck cancer if given before surgery. In most cases, there is enough time between cancer diagnosis and surgery to test immunotherapy drugs. In this study, researchers are testing the safety and anti-cancer abilities of 3 drugs given before surgery for head and neck cancer. Objective: To learn if giving M7824 alone, or with the TriAd Vaccine (ETBX-011, ETBX-051 & ETBX-061), or with TriAd vaccine plus Anktiva (N-803) can shrink previously untreated head and neck tumors before surgery or stop the tumors from coming back after all treatment. Eligibility: People age 18 and older who have a head and neck cancer that has not been treated before, and the tumor must be removed with surgery. Design: Participants will be screened in a separate protocol. Participants will have the following tests: medical history and physical exams computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging scans tumor, mucosa, and skin biopsies electrocardiograms to monitor heart activity endoscopies (a tube is inserted through the nose to see the upper airway) blood and urine tests. All participants will get bintrafusp alfa (M7824) through an intravenous infusion. For this, a small plastic tube is put into an arm vein. Some may also get the TriAd vaccine. It is injected under the skin on the arms or legs. Some may also get N-803. It is injected under the skin on the stomach. Participants will have clinic visits while they are getting treatment and after treatment ends. After treatment ends, participants will have their scheduled surgery. There will be two follow up visits at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) after your surgery. They will be contacted by phone or email every 2 weeks for 3 months. Then they will be contacted every 3 months for 2 years. ...
