Two-Pronged attack tested against tough head and neck cancers

NCT ID NCT03993353

Summary

This study tested whether combining two existing drugs—pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) and tadalafil—could be safe and more effective for people with advanced head and neck cancer that has returned or spread. The idea was to boost the body's immune system in two different ways to fight the cancer. It was a small, early-phase trial involving 7 participants to check safety and see if the approach showed promise.
