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

Summary

This study tests a new drug called TQB2922, given as a shot under the skin, for people with head and neck cancer that has come back or spread. The drug is a special antibody that targets two proteins (EGFR and c-Met) involved in cancer growth. The trial has two parts: first, finding the safest dose in about 128 adults aged 18–75, then checking if the drug works alone or with other treatments.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for people with head and neck cancer that has returned or spread.
