Can immune markers predict success of docetaxel chemoradiotherapy?
NCT ID NCT06947668
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at immune markers in tumor tissue, saliva, stool, and blood from 250 head and neck cancer patients who cannot receive cisplatin chemotherapy. Researchers want to see if these markers can predict how well patients respond to chemoradiotherapy with docetaxel. The goal is to find better ways to personalize treatment for this group.
