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.
-
Circulating DNA to detect leftover disease after chemoradiotherapy for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial will test whether a blood test for circulating tumor DNA can find leftover cancer three months after chemoradiotherapy in people with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma enrolled in Neck-TAR.
-
Neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy for advanced oral cancer
This study is testing a new combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy to see if it can shrink tumors in people with advanced oral cancer before they have surgery, and if it helps them live longer compared to standard treatments.
-
Detecting residual disease in advanced head and neck cancer using blood samples after radiotherapy
This study is testing if analyzing blood samples can help find leftover cancer in patients with advanced head and neck cancer after they’ve had radiation treatment.
-
Using gabapentin and ketamine to manage pain in head and neck cancer patients
This study is testing a combination of gabapentin and ketamine to see if it can safely help manage pain for patients with advanced head and neck cancer who are receiving treatment.
