Filter by:This is a Phase 1b/2a, open-label, multi-center study to evaluate the safety and tolerability, anti-tumor activity, and immunogenicity of MEDI0457 (also known as INO 3112) a HPV Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) vaccine in combination with durvalumab (also known as MEDI4736) which is a human monoclonal antibody directed against Programmed Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1), which blocks the interaction of PD-L1 with PD-1 and Cluster of differentiation 80 (CD80). An initial three to 12 participants (Safety Analysis Run-in participants) will be enrolled and assessed for safety before additional participants are enrolled. The initial safety analysis run-in participants along with an approximate total of 50 participants with human papilloma virus associated recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC) will be enrolled in this study and evaluated also for anti-tumor efficacy to MEDI0457 in combination with durvalumab.
The main objective of our study was to determine the modifications of blood myostatin and activin A concentrations associated with head and neck cancers. Secondary objectives consisted in studying their influence on the occurrence of cachexia, bringing the proof of a tumoral secretion of these factors, and then determining the effect of tumor removal.
The purpose of this first-in-human study of CX-2009 is to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and antitumor activity of CX-2009 in adult subjects with metastatic or locally advanced unresectable solid tumors.

This trial studies how well dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) works in diagnosing osteoradionecrosis in patients with head and neck cancer that is primary, has come back, or has spread to other places in the body who are undergoing radiation therapy. DCE-MRI may help doctors to predict osteoradionecrosis in patient with head and neck cancer undergoing radiation therapy.
This study aimed to observe how a six week qigong program influence patients with head and neck cancer during active radiotherapy treatment course. The quality of life, sleep dysfunction or depression and shoulder and neck function will be accessed by questionnaire, and ANS function will be objectively investigated using heart rate variability measurement.
This is a prospective observational study evaluating wound complications following head and neck surgery. Patients undergoing major head and neck surgery will be included in the study. Patients meeting eligibility criteria will be identified by members of the University of Michigan Head and Neck Oncology Division of the Department of Otolaryngology. The primary aim of this study is to identify risk factors for poor wound healing as well as biologic markers associated with wound related complications in head and neck surgery. Most specifically, this study evaluates the effects of thyroid hormone on wound healing. This study will also evaluate pre-operative labs and comorbidities as well as reconstructive factors, post-operative labs, and other variables associated with wound healing. All interventions regarding wound healing fall under current standards of care and standard practice. Data regarding post-operative wound complications will be collected in a prospective fashion on the variables under study using study-specific datasheets. Data sheet will be entered into a secure database for analysis.
This study will investigate the safety and tolerability of MAGE-A4ᶜ¹º³²T cell therapy in subjects who have the appropriate HLA-A2 tissue marker and whose urinary bladder, melanoma, head and neck, ovarian, non-small cell lung, esophageal, gastric, synovial sarcoma, or myxoid/round call liposarcoma (MRCLS) tumor has the MAGE-A4 protein expressed. This study will take a subject's T cells and give them a T cell receptor protein that recognizes and attacks the tumors. This study has a substudy component that will investigate the safety and tolerability of MAGE-A4c1032T cell therapy in combination with low dose radiation in up to 10 subjects.
The aim of this study is to evaluate modulation of anti-tumor T cell responses in cancer patients treated by concomitant radiochemotherapy (i-RTCT)
By utilizing fitness trackers, this study aims to demonstrate that a simple walking program improves patients' ability to tolerate curative concurrent chemoradiotherapy without treatment interruption.
Objectives: Primary Aim: Examine the feasibility of a dyadic yoga program in 40 Head and Neck Cancer (HNC) patients undergoing radiotherapy (RT) and their family caregivers. Secondary Aims: 1. Establish the initial efficacy of the yoga program in patients and their caregivers regarding quality of life (QOL) outcomes (i.e., fatigue, sleep disturbance, depressive symptoms, and overall QOL) and objective performance outcomes (i.e, sit to stand test and grip strength).
