All recruiting trials (5)
-
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.
-
Sparing reconstructive flaps during post‑operative radiotherapy for oral cavity cancer
This trial tests whether shielding reconstructive surgical flaps during post‑operative radiotherapy reduces treatment side effects for adults treated for oral cavity cancer.
-
Injecting a viral particle to treat head and neck cancer
This study is testing a new virus injection to see if it can help treat head and neck cancer in different groups of patients.
-
Investigating how acetaldehyde contributes to oral cancer development
This study is trying to see how drinking alcohol affects the development of oral cancer in healthy people and those with Fanconi anemia by looking at samples like saliva and urine.
