Summary
This study tests whether adding experimental immune-boosting drugs (HB-201 and HB-202) to standard chemotherapy can shrink HPV16-positive throat tumors more effectively. The goal is to reduce the amount of radiation or chemotherapy needed afterward, potentially lowering side effects. About 35 adults with HPV16+ oropharyngeal cancer will participate for roughly 2 years.
