Filter by:This study aims to determine whether dysbiosis actively contributes to HNSCC and if so, the underlying molecular mechanisms.
9 participants are expected to be enrolled for this open，single-armed clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the recombinant herpes simplex virus Ⅰ, R130 in patients with relapsed/refractory head and neck cancer.
The goal of this clinical research study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of injecting certain cells that you produce in your bone marrow called mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into your salivary glands. Participants will have head and neck cancer that was treated with radiation therapy, and in this study will: - Undergo a collection of bone marrow using a needle; - Donate saliva; - Undergo a salivary gland ultrasound; and, - Complete questionnaires that ask about dry mouth Participants can expect to be in this study for up to 30 months.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about relation between vitamin D levels in subjects with head and neck cancer. The main question it aims to answer are: - variation of vitamin D levels in the study population at different time points - relation between therapy side effects and vitamin D level - relation between disease outcome and vitamin D level Participants will be followed as per clinical practice
The goal of this clinical trial is to find if levels of a protein called AXL in tumor cells relate to how tumors respond to cetuximab (CTX) combined with imatinib in participants with head and neck cancer. This interventional study will occur in the time between diagnosis of your cancer and surgery to remove your tumor or radiation or chemoradiation treatment of your primary cancer. Participants will undergo a research blood draw and a research biopsy as part of the screening process, and will be in this research study for approximately 13 to 16 months.
TScan Therapeutics is developing cellular therapies across multiple solid tumors in which autologous participant-derived T cells are engineered to express a T cell receptor that recognizes cancer-associated antigens presented on specific Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) molecules. The purpose of this screening study is to collect samples to conduct HLA genotyping, HLA Loss of Heterozygosity (LOH) and expression of Tumor-associated Antigens (TAA) testing. These results will be used to determine if subjects meet the eligibility criteria for these parameters and could potentially be enrolled in a TScan clinical treatment study.
In this randomized behavioral intervention, head and neck cancer (HNC) survivors and their caregivers (N=176 HNC survivor-caregiver dyads) will be randomized to either Survivorship Needs Assessment Planning (SNAP) or Usual Care (UC) groups to examine the effects of SNAP on outcomes. SNAP includes two sessions with a needs assessment and tailored care plan and a supportive mobile app after completion of radiation to promote uptake of recommended medical and supportive care. The study aims to evaluate the effects of SNAP on symptom severity in patients and caregiver burden in caregivers. Secondary outcomes include psychological distress (anxiety and depression), healthcare utilization (receipt of recommended care) and unmet needs and self-efficacy in HNC survivor-caregiver dyads. Participants will complete surveys at baseline, 6 months, and 9 months post randomization with validated PROMs, and receive intervention modules at the end of radiation and month 3. Participants in the SNAP group will also receive mobile app support.
The RESCUE study is a combined retrospective and prospective multicentre cohort study investigating the survival and functional outcomes in patients undergoing salvage surgery for recurrent, residual, and new primary head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Additionally, the RESCUE study will contain an exploratory molecular analysis of consenting patients to assess the relationship between cancer genomics, previous radiotherapy, and recurrence in head and neck cancer.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of a navigation-based multilevel intervention (ENDURE) with treatment as usual at decreasing delays starting guideline-adherent postoperative radiation therapy among patients with head and neck cancer. The main questions the trial aims to answer are: - Does ENDURE decrease delays starting PORT relative to treatment as usual? - Does ENDURE decrease racial disparities in delays starting PORT relative to treatment as usual - What are the mechanisms through which ENDURE reduces treatment delays?
This is an open-label, non-randomized, multicenter, dose-escalation and expansion study in patients with selected solid tumors.
