Early trial tests new combo for Tough-to-Treat head & neck cancers

NCT ID NCT03381183

Summary

This early-stage study tested the safety of combining two immunotherapy drugs, IRX-2 and durvalumab, for patients with incurable head and neck cancer. The main goal was to find the highest dose patients could tolerate without severe side effects and to see if the treatment increased immune cell activity inside the tumors. It involved 19 adults whose cancer had returned or spread and could not be cured with surgery or radiation.
