First seen Apr 19, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study tests a vaccine made from Candida (a common yeast) to see if it can reduce the risk of head and neck cancer returning after standard treatment. About 80 adults who have finished curative therapy and are currently cancer-free will receive either the vaccine or a placebo over two years. The main goal is to compare recurrence rates between the two groups.
