Summary
This study tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (cemiplimab) and two low-dose chemotherapy drugs (paclitaxel and carboplatin) in people whose head and neck cancer has returned or spread. The goal is to see if this mix can shrink tumors better than standard treatments. About 46 adults with certain types of advanced head and neck cancer who have not had prior chemotherapy for their advanced disease will take part.
