Study of Intratumoral (IT) MK-1454 in Combination With Intravenous (IV) Pembrolizumab (MK-3475) Compared to IV Pembrolizumab Alone as the First Line Treatment of Metastatic or Unresectable Recurrent Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) (MK-1454-002)

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of intratumoral (IT) MK-1454 in PLUS pembrolizumab (MK-3475) compared to pembrolizumab alone as a first line treatment of adults with metastatic or unresectable, recurrent head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The primary study hypotheses are that IT …

Standard radiation treatment for head and neck patients normally requires that the patient travel to the hospital daily for 6-7 weeks to receive …

Phase II Study for Combination of Camrelizumab and SBRT in the First-line Treatment for R/M HNSCC

This study is a prospective, single-center, open-label, phase II clinical study for patients with recurrent or metastatics quamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.

Camrelizumab Combined With Apatinib Mesylate for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

This is a prospective, open-labelled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab combined with apatinib mesylate in the induction treatment of patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma who were judged surgically unresectable or appropriate for non-surgical definitive therapy. The objective response rate (ORR) and …

HYPORT: A Phase I/II Study of Hypofractionated Post-operative Radiation Therapy for Head and Neck Cancer

There is a strong radiobiological and economic rationale for hypofractionated radiation therapy in head and neck cancer. Phase 1 of the trial aims to assess the acute toxicity and tolerability of hypofractionated radiation therapy in the post-operative setting, and to determine the dose/fractionation for Phase 2. Phase 2 aims to …

Imaging of Tumour Microenvironment in Patients With Oropharyngeal Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Using RGD PET/CT Imaging

Known risk factors inducing squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck are tabacco and alcohol intake. However, the incidence of human papillomavirus (HPV) related oropharyngeal carcinomas is increasing. It is known that HPV+ and HPV- tumors have a different reaction to (chemo)radiotherapy. The exact mechanisms underlying these differences is …

Cetuximab Therapeutic Drug Monitoring in Squamous Cell Carcinoma Head and Neck Cancer Patients: Determination of the Predictive Value Exposure Levels Through a Single Arm Multicentric Study

Only about 30 percent of cancer patients have a clinical benefit upon cetuximab administration. Pilot studies in colorectal and head and neck cancer patients have suggested that cetuximab pharmacokinetics (PK), i.e. clearance values, could impact on clinical outcomes such as survival. Determining cetuximab plasma clearance requires sophisticated PK modeling using …

Cetuximab After Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Cancer

This is a Phase II treatment, non-randomized, open label clinical trial to study the efficacy of the Cetuximab when administered as single agent in recurrent/ metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma after the failure or intolerance of immuno-oncology or immuno-oncology combined with chemotherapy.
