Summary
This early-phase study tests a new imaging agent called 111In-panitumumab to see if it can safely and accurately find cancer that has spread to lymph nodes in people with head and neck cancer. About 28 participants will receive an injection of this agent before surgery, and its ability to spot cancerous lymph nodes will be compared to the standard method using dye during surgery. The goal is to improve staging and guide treatment decisions.
