NCT ID NCT04325828
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a combination of two hormone-blocking drugs (apalutamide and a GnRH agonist) can shrink or slow the growth of advanced salivary gland cancer that has a specific protein called the androgen receptor. About 31 adults with locally advanced or spread cancer that has this receptor will receive the treatment. The main goal is to see how many patients have their tumors shrink or disappear.
