New attack on lingering HPV after throat cancer treatment

NCT ID NCT05363709

Summary

This study is testing if an immunotherapy drug called balstilimab can clear the HPV virus from the blood of throat cancer patients who have finished their main treatment but still show signs of the virus. The goal is to see if clearing this leftover virus can help prevent the cancer from coming back. The study will enroll about 20 patients who have completed surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation but still have detectable HPV in their blood.
