NCT ID NCT06727565

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 27 times

Summary

This study tests whether adding an experimental drug (domvanalimab) to a standard immunotherapy (zimberelimab) plus chemotherapy works better than the standard immunotherapy plus chemotherapy alone for people with head and neck cancer that has spread or come back. About 100 adults who have not had prior treatment for this stage of cancer will take part. The main goals are to see if the combination shrinks tumors and delays cancer growth.
