open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding cetuximab to pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab alone in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent) and/or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Cetuximab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It binds to a protein called EGFR, which is found on some types of tumor cells. This may help keep tumor cells from growing. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving cetuximab and pembrolizumab together may be more effective at treating patients with recurrent and/or metastatic HNSCC than pembrolizumab alone.

INBRX-106 in Combination With Pembrolizumab in First-line PD-L1 CPS≥20 HNSCC

Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
This seamless phase 2/3 randomized controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the hexavalent OX40 agonist antibody INBRX-106 combined with the anti-PD-1 antibody pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab (+ placebo in phase 3) as first-line treatment for patients with locally advanced recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M HSNSCC) incurable by local therapies, expressing PD-L1 with a combined proportion score (CPS) ≥20.

Anti-cancer Drug, Ipatasertib, to the Usual Immunotherapy Treatment (Pembrolizumab) in Patients With Recurrent or Metastatic Squamous Cell Cancer of the Head and Neck
“Volunteer for research and contribute to discoveries that may improve health care for you, your family, and your community!”
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
This phase II trial compares the effect of adding ipatasertib to pembrolizumab (standard immunotherapy) vs. pembrolizumab alone in treating patients with squamous cell cancer of the head and neck that has come back (recurrent) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Ipatasertib is in a class of medications called protein kinase B (AKT) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of tumor cells and may kill them. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving ipatasertib in combination with pembrolizumab may be more effective than pembrolizumab alone in improving some outcomes in patients with recurrent/metastatic squamous cell cancer of the head and neck.
