• Intratumoral fluorescent nivolumab before surgery in head and neck cancer

  This study tests injecting fluorescently labeled nivolumab directly into head and neck tumors to see if it is safe and whether it reaches nearby lymph nodes before surgical removal.

  Recruiting Early Phase 1 Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center · Nashville, Tennessee · NCT07741565

• Using [18F]NOTA-ABY030 PET/CT to clarify indeterminate head and neck squamous cell carcinoma lesions

  This trial will test whether the new PET imaging agent [18F]NOTA-ABY030 is safe and can better detect unclear primary or metastatic lesions in adults with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

  Recruiting Phase 1 Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center · Nashville, Tennessee · NCT07217028

• High-resolution PET-CT to visualize surgical tumor margins

  This will test whether a low-dose, high-resolution PET-CT scan of removed tumor tissue can help surgeons spot at-risk margins during surgery for adults with solid cancers such as head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

  Recruiting Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center · Nashville, Tennessee · NCT06915454

• Using a fluorescently labeled drug to improve surgery for head and neck cancer

  This study is testing a special version of a cancer drug to see if it can help doctors see tumors better during surgery for patients with head and neck cancer.

  Recruiting Phase 1 Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center · Nashville, Tennessee · NCT06819228

• 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.

  Recruiting Phase 1 VLP Therapeutics · Stanford, California · NCT06736379

• Measuring circulating tumor DNA in patients with advanced upper aero-digestive tract cancer after radiotherapy

  This study is testing if measuring tumor DNA in the blood after radiation treatment can help predict how well patients with advanced throat and mouth cancer will do in the future.

  Recruiting at 7 sites Institut de Cancérologie de Lorraine · Caen, Caen and 6 other locations · NCT06479070

• MQ710 with or without pembrolizumab for advanced skin and other solid tumors

  This will test different doses of MQ710, alone or together with pembrolizumab, in adults with advanced or recurrent solid tumors (including skin cancers) to find a safe dose with mild side effects.
