NCT ID NCT03712566

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This research study looks at how certain cancers (head and neck, esophagus, and anal canal) change at the genetic and immune level when patients receive chemotherapy or immunotherapy. About 39 people with advanced cancer will provide blood samples and tumor tissue over time. The goal is to better understand how these cancers respond to treatment, not to test a new drug.
