-
Autologous tumor membrane vesicle (TMV) vaccine alone or with pembrolizumab for recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
This trial tests whether a vaccine made from a patient's own tumor (TMV), given alone or with pembrolizumab, can help people with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma who had tumor tissue banked at surgery.
-
Remote hearing tests for patients with head and neck cancer receiving chemotherapy or radiation
This study is testing if remote hearing tests can help patients with advanced head and neck cancer keep track of their hearing loss during chemotherapy or radiation, making it easier for those who live far away to participate.
-
Combining lovastatin and pembrolizumab for advanced head and neck cancer treatment
This study is testing if combining a cholesterol-lowering drug called lovastatin with an immunotherapy drug called pembrolizumab can help people with advanced head and neck cancer feel better and live longer.
-
Combining cetuximab with pembrolizumab for advanced head and neck cancer
This study is testing if adding cetuximab to pembrolizumab can help people with advanced head and neck cancer live longer and feel better compared to just using pembrolizumab alone.
-
Identifying biomarkers for HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer
This study is trying to find specific markers in blood and saliva that can help identify HPV-related throat cancer in patients who are already diagnosed with advanced stages of the disease.
-
Combining cabozantinib and nivolumab to treat advanced melanoma and head and neck cancer
This study is testing a combination of two cancer drugs, cabozantinib and nivolumab, to see if they can help people with advanced melanoma or head and neck cancer while also looking at how to better match treatments to patients based on their tumor characteristics.
