Filter by:This study is looking to see if nivolumab, an immunotherapy drug, given with carboplatin and paclitaxel (2 chemotherapy agents) during induction therapy in advanced stage HPV negative patients can significantly shrink the subject's cancer.
To choose a subgroup who could clearly benefit from Nivolumab, we are proposing a prospective observational study. Whole-genome study (WGS) analysis will be performed on archived cancer tissues from patients who were (1) cisplatin-refractory and subsequently (2) received Nivolumab (at least 4 doses) and (3) had completed imaging response evaluation at 3-4 month after Nivolumab. The estimated sample size was designed to be 80, including 20 responders and 60 non-responders (1:3 design) after Nivolumab alone at a dosage of 2-3mg/kg every 2 weeks (+/- 7 days could be allowed), given the minimal requirement of statistical significance. The specific bio-signature(s) found in this prospective observational study could possibly greatly contribute to precision immuno-oncology medicine, especially Nivolumab.
Preclinical data and limited clinical evidence suggest that Head and Neck Squameous Cell Carcinoma tumors harboring certain mutations may respond well to PI3K/mTOR inhibition (phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/ mammalian target of rapamycin inhibition). The current study enrolls patients with refractory and / or metastatic Head and Neck Squameous Cell Carcinoma based on the mutational status of their disease to assess the response to treatment with bimiralisib, an orally available pan-PI3K/mTOR inhibitor (phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/ mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor).
This study evaluate the regional (neck) nodal control of durvalumab in combination with RT restricted to the primary tumor and the immediately adjacent nodal level (i.e. without prophylactic neck irradiation) in N0 patients with SCCHN.
An international, multicenter, open-label, 2 cohort, non-comparative, pivotal study evaluating the efficacy of tipifarnib in HRAS mutant HNSCC (AIM-HN). The first cohort will assess the objective response rate (ORR) of tipifarnib in subjects with HNSCC with HRAS mutations. The second study cohort, SEQ-HN, is an observational sub-study including HNSCC patients in whom HRAS mutations were not identified (wild type HRAS HNSCC) and who consent to provide first line outcome data and additional follow up.
Nivolumab is FDA-approved for the treatment of patients with recurrent/metastatic Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC). HNSCC whose disease has progressed within 6 months after platinum-based chemotherapy. The development of predictive biomarkers is needed to optimize patient benefit, minimize risk of toxicities and guide combination strategies.
Evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination of eftilagimod alpha with pembrolizumab in non-small cell lung carcinoma and head and neck carcinoma patients.
This is a Phase 1/2 open-label, multi-center, multi-national study with an initial dose escalation part to determine the RP2D of MCLA-158 single agent in patients with mCRC. The dose escalation part has been completed and the RP2D will be further evaluated in an expansion part of the study. Cohorts of selected solid tumor indications for which there is evidence of EGFR dependency and potential sensitivity to EGFR inhibition will be evaluated including head and neck cancer. The study will further assess the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, immunogenicity, and anti-tumor activity of MCLA-158.
This trial evaluates the addition of pembrolizumab to standard postoperative adjuvant radiochemotherapy in the treatment of patients with locally advanced intermediate and high risk head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).
This randomized phase II trial studies how well ficlatuzumab with or without cetuximab works in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that has come back or spread to other places in the body and resistant to cetuximab treatment. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ficlatuzumab and cetuximab, may block growth signals that lets a tumor cell survive and reproduce, and helps the immune system recognize and fight head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
