New drug combo aims to shrink tumors before cancer surgery

NCT ID NCT05977907

Summary

This study is testing whether giving two immunotherapy drugs (pembrolizumab and IO102-103) before surgery is safe and effective for people with head and neck cancer that can be removed by surgery. Researchers will give the drugs to 30 participants and closely monitor side effects and any delays to surgery. The main goal is to see how much the treatment shrinks the tumor before it is surgically removed.
