New attack on tough head & neck cancers that come back

NCT ID NCT04754321

Summary

This early-stage trial is testing whether combining an immunotherapy drug called pembrolizumab with surgery and targeted radiation can better control head and neck cancers that have returned or didn't fully respond to previous treatments. The study aims to find the safest way to combine these treatments while seeing if they help keep the cancer from growing back locally. Researchers will enroll about 45 patients whose cancer is still considered removable by surgery.
