-
Intraoperative Methadone for Postoperative Pain in Head and Neck Cancer Patients
This trial tests whether giving methadone during surgery, in addition to standard fentanyl, helps control pain after head and neck cancer surgery more effectively than fentanyl alone.
-
Mild heat therapy added to standard treatment for locally advanced head and neck cancer
This early-stage trial tests whether mild hyperthermia can be safely added to standard radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy for locally advanced head and neck cancer.
-
Chemotherapy plus finotonlimab before main treatment for locally advanced hypopharyngeal cancer
This tries giving finotonlimab (a PD‑1 drug) together with chemotherapy before definitive treatment for adults with resectable stage III–IVA hypopharyngeal cancer who have at least a 50% tumor shrinkage.
-
Managing metastatic neck nodes in hypopharyngeal cancer
This study is testing whether surgery or chemotherapy works better for patients with advanced hypopharyngeal cancer that has spread to their neck nodes.
