New drug combo aims to fight tough head and neck cancers

NCT ID NCT04643379

Summary

This study is testing a new combination of three drugs—olaparib, pembrolizumab, and carboplatin—as the first treatment for people with advanced head and neck cancer that has returned or spread. The goal is to see if this three-drug mix can shrink tumors better than standard treatments. The trial will enroll about 30 adults with incurable disease to measure how well and for how long the treatment works.
