Radiation blast boosts cancer drug power in major trial

NCT ID NCT05815927

Summary

This study is testing if adding a precise, high-dose radiation treatment (SABR) to the standard immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab works better than the drug alone for controlling advanced head and neck cancer that has spread to a few other body sites. It will enroll 200 adults whose cancer has 1 to 5 spread-away tumors to see if the combination helps keep the cancer from growing longer and helps people live longer. The main goal is to see if the combined approach improves 'progression-free survival'—the time patients live without their cancer getting worse.
